rgs2001uk Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Seems to me there is a market for a good Irish bar or equivalent in Rayong. Why is there no proper strip? What is a good Irish bar, and what makes it different to a normal good bar? Personally when I see another of these plastic Paddy bars appear my initial thought is, there goes the neighbourhood. Not restricted to Irish bars, I feel the same way about Starbucks and all the other crapola from the west, watched as some budget backpacker was asking about wifi the other week, whats that all about. After all the above are in place, sit back and wait for the jet ski scammers, unmetered taxis etc etc to move in like sharks on a feeding frenzy No proper strip, head to Pattaya or Ban Chang, if you speak Thai all you want is available, its just not in yer face. There are many love the area just the way it is, if they didnt they would be in Pattaya, personally I rent a house in Chan and dont miss anything Pattaya has to offer.

At the end of the day the house rule is if you fight or cause trouble you are asked to leave and possibly will be banned and that goes for all the bars. On behalf of the Bar owners in Ban Phe including me we apologise if you and your group were upset with all the bars customers and their activities/actions. Comments from you like "Ban Phe Low Life" "your tourist customers conform to our bar rules" "your drunkie idiots important people" "you are a tourist - f*** you" . Your writing shows and illustrates the type of person you are, but never mind about that our apology stands. In the 3 years i hav had Bedrock u are the first one that has written about what u dont like and cast doubts over a community (BAN PHE LOW LIFE). Amazing intelligence Rgds Mark @ Bedrock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atmos Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 ^ I second that, but suggest delete it. Perhaps start again on a simple 'facts' basis, ie name and address of bar, if there's meals available, a restaurant attached, accommodation, cost range, suitability for eg families or budget travelers or whatever . . . Something that might be useful to people like us who may travel there on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for browsing, too, and an excellent selection of books. My personal recommendation to Blue Sky Books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryLime Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Seems to me there is a market for a good Irish bar or equivalent in Rayong. Why is there no proper strip? I think the bottom line is there aren't enough Westerners in Rayong to make one profitable. My personal recommendation to Blue Sky Books.Agreed, a very nice little bookstore.
