peterrabbit Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I am looking at going to Chiang Mai in November during the school holidays and staying in the Loi Kroh Road area. My concern is that all the falang bars/restaurants appear to be closed online. Is it the case that almost every bar and falang restaurant is closed in the Loi Kroh road and Night Bazaar area? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ChakaKhan Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 Think of the starving chubby isaan grannies! The only bar I ever went to on LK was down Soi 1, hence the name NO.1 Bar, where I could get a nice import from the vast selection and kick back undisturbed.... It used to be a pretty happening place but then the craft beer scene came to cm and the place faded.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you pay the bar fine I believe you are allowed to grab them (gently) almost anywhere not just "up there"! Regarding age. As I am an English gentleman I never ask a "lady" her age so I cannot help there! Edited October 20, 2020 by fangless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorpusChristie Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I was in the area last night , I would say that 80 % of the bars were closed and the open bars were very quiet . Still able to pick females up, but not much chance of an enjoyable night out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Trujillo Posted October 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2020 Funny how the OP didn't mention a word about female companionship or picking up chicks or anything, but all the replies touch on this.

sherwood Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Downunder Sports Bar is still open as far as I know. Good Expat bar and locals could point you in any direct you wanted to go. Down near the river end of Loi Kroh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alant Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 hi peterrabbit. Quite a few places have not been able to survive but there are still a fair number of places open. At the river end of Loy Khro Down under is open, so is Lemongrass. My main weekend haunt the Red Lion is also open and doing some great food specials including a Sunday roast. Picture added. Music video live footy and motorsports as well. Most of the bars on Kalare market seem open but not Le Spice indian restaurant. There are Indian restaurants on Loy Khro though if that is what you fancy. Kampengdin rd bars open. It is quiet for sure. They would welcome some custom. Hope you have a good trip. PS if you fancy staying out of the city there is Tepin Baan Lek which has an ex pat discount ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazinoz Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I go Low Kroh every few days. The western end (moat end) is very dead and a lot of shops, not just bars, closed. Amazingly a couple new bars have opened. Two nights ago I went to Lucky bar food area (upstairs behind bar) at 7pm and was closed first time ever at that time. Not sure if just one night or permanent. Rock Me Burger Closed but apparently just for renovations. B52 Pizza closed. My regular Welcome Inn is open, has good meals. Massage shop across the road from WI was always busy and open until late. The other night shutters came down around 9.30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
