"Short time bar Review from Pattaya Chat, March 2006: Wai Popular It's a covered-on-top beer bar with a ton of girls working there, and most people can find someone to their liking. It's also a hang out for many expats and veterans of Pattaya. It seems to be one of those places that punters like a lot or do not like at all. As you walk in it's customary for their girls near the entrance to wai you with their hands. They have some girls who are dancers...the bar has 3 tiny stages with one pole per stage that 2 girls at a time can dance at. Some of the girls are dancers and get paid a little extra by the bar, most do not get up and dance. They don't use go-go outfits, but each girl dresses in what they want, although they must have been told to dress on the sexy side... They also have a pool table in the back. Their bar fines were based on what time of the evening you paid bar....the early time would result in a larger bar fine, late at night it's less. Somewhere in the 250-500 baht range on a graduated scale. Also it would depend on if you were taking her short time or long time. These girls don't command Go-Go-girl prices, but more along the standard price (maybe a bit higher) for short time and long time. 65 Baht for a bottled beer. Girls were asking 1000 Baht short time, 1500 Baht long time. Autumn 2005: The bar is lively and pleasant enough but the ST rooms double as night-time accommodation for the ladies - I estimated five to a room. They are very tacky smell of dried smoked squid, tiger balsam , chillies and cheap scent. More on their website atwww.buffalobar.com As you can see, many of the "girls" are way past their use-by date."

Thai style outdoor bar & restaurant with live music Pattaya brochure review February 2006: Country Music With a Western theme and probably the best Isaan food in town. Has a Luk Tung band (Thai country music with lots of crying and drunken wailing). Good stuff. Also notable as the location of my wedding reception!

News, May 2006: A fire led to 8 deaths and nearly 60 injuries. Early reports suggest that back doors were locked and there were no other emergency exits."

"Fun Town's first fetish establishment, called The Castle, opened its rather imposing heavy door for business in late December 2003. It specifically caters for those whose tastes in fashion run to whips, chains, PVC, latex, and leather. The place was opened by the same French management who operate a similarly-named fetish joint in Bangkok. The gear, which also includes nurse and schoolgirl uniforms is being supplied by Pattaya's premier fashion house Boutique Sexy (their showroom is in Naklua Soi 33). In order to get punters in the right sado-masochistic mood, the first drink in the place will set you back 900 baht. All drinks after that are just a trifling 200 baht. The management stress this is not a drinking bar; it is a place for like-minded people to come and indulge in their favourite fantasy. To really keep the screws turning, there is definitely no copulation on the premises, no matter how excited you might get over the sight of a couple of latex-clad damsels beating each other with an overripe cucumber. If you want to engage in something un-natural like sexual intercourse then fork out the 1,500 baht bar fine and take your leather feather duster and your lady back to your place. The Castle has a dress code of which the colour black is one of the necessary component parts. It opens at 5:30PM and closes at 2:00AM and at present has a staff of around 14 dominatrixes/submissives who have been trained by an Englishman. A lady drink is a suitably humiliating 250 baht, but the bar has a strict policy dissuading damsels from asking for a libation. The choice is completely up to the customer."

Disco December 2005: Hot place but never got a lady in there wanted many but could never get hold of one. Summer 2005: From a couple of visits this venue entertains with a live band. Dancing is optional as the band was good enough to entertain in their own right.
