First time Pattaya

[Guest guest_BenG1000]

Hey guys,

 

After having extensively explored the Bangkok bars, I decided it was time to visit Pattaya end of September.

Not sure what to expect, my friend says it can be a bit trashy but the boys are less maintenance than Bangkok guys and the tips are less. True?

From other posts I read that Winner might be worth a visit.

Anyhow, I'll happily receive any info.

Cheers

Ben yes, I prefer Pattaya as it's less "chaotic" ,but some guys on here just love the hustle & bustle of he City of Bangkok.

I think the Bangkok boys are more full time student types rather than the usually full time money boys of Pattaya.

Yes prices are usually cheaper in Pattaya ,of course depending where you shop at

not sure what it is supposed to mean 'bit trashy" but whatever it is,  nothing to be apprehensive about. Boys are as  nice as BKK ones, prices of drinks, off fees , massages and expected tips are lower indeed.

If you are looking for twinks you will find galore of them in Jomtien Complex as well as Winners and whatever was left from Sunee Plaza glory. Nice Boys staff may be a bit on rough side but in positive sense of it - less inhibited I'd say.

For more meatier guys head to Boyztown, BBB and Dreamboys will be your destination there.

If you bored during day, trip to Koh Larn ( with boy or three in tow), Sanctuary of Truth and Noong Noch (spelling? ) Tropical Gardens and Big Buddha on top of the hill at the center are you daytime distractions.

Central Festival and Terminal 21 are malls to visit if you re shopper. Lots of restaurants so you won't starve, if you like street food , you will find plenty of it between Wat Chai and Tukcom.

Baht bus is 10 baht and motorsai between Jomtien and the center will be 60-100 depending on driver , time of day, your negotiating skills, how you dressed  and phase of moon.

If you arrive by Airport bus ( recommended), terminal is walking distance of 6 minutes 37 seconds from Jomtien Complex, if by bus from Ekkamai bus station to North Pattaya Bus Station , it will be 50--100 by songtawew (baht bus) or motorsai  to Boyztown, unless you stop songtaew on the main street, that it will be 2 times 10 baht as you must change at Delphin roundabout.

As for hotels, in Boytzown Classroom (more quiet) , just above ABomb boy bar or in Boyztown proper Copa or Ambiance are your choices, all gust friendly like 127.43% of Pattaya hotels. In Jomtien complex Zing Resort or The Venue are cheaper choices, Agate , East Suites and Poseidon are more for affluent types like you.

thank you , you have  a good heart ! 

Way OP asked question made it somewhat easy to answer

[Londoner]

Nothing  much to add to vinapu's comprehensive (and accurate) post except to underline the fact that  the Jomtien Complex  is the only gay area left in Pattaya, Phuket, Bangkok or Chiang Mai, where there is a real sense of vibrancy  comparable to that of the Good Old Days. 

And yes, Terminus 21 and Central have an array of restaurants at all prices that would  keep anyone happy. Predominantly Asian cuisines, of course.

Thank you everyone, much appreciated! Can't wait to visit in a few weeks.

Dragon was mentioned in previous posts, is it just a bar with a cabaret like show or is it also a gogo?

For some reason, after being in Thailand for a few days ... I end up craving a nice steak. I read Patrick's and Beefeater might be the place to be.

Any suggestions?

Thanks again!

[kokopelli 2]

There are several "Dragon" venues in Pattaya. Could you be more specific?  Jomtien Complex or elsewhere?

Enjoy Andre has good steaks also. And Steak & Company/Smokin Joes on Soi Lengkee

Krazy Dragon? Long closed if that's the one?

The guys that I have met in Pattaya have been more of an 'anything goes' attitude than those in Bangkok, but I wouldn't describe it as trashy. As Vinapu mentioned, boys in Pattaya are as nice as those in Bangkok.

Prices are more reasonable in most bars for drinks, hotels are usually cheaper, and tips expectations are lower.

Winner is always worth a visit in my opinion, I'm guessing you like guys on the twinkier side? I just returned from a short trip, I'll have a very brief report up in a day or two that might answer some questions.

I arrived in Pattaya this week for a short (4 week) visit.

On Saturday evening at about 10 pm I decided to give Boyztown a look over, as I haven’t seen it since the reopening after Covid. 

I decided to try 3 Gogo bars.

The first I visited was an old favourite Toyboys and I was greeted warmly by the Manager/Boss/ Owner, or whatever he is. Name Put or Pat.

There were in excess of 18 boys working all in underwear. Most if not all could be called Twinks. About 5 customers.

Unfortunately, I was then “greeted” by a male Mamasan. I recognised him from a few years ago. Bad news. He must have graduated top of the class from the “Pesky Mamasan” University. He wouldn’t leave me alone, sat beside me and demanded a drink. Ignoring him eventually did the trick but it must have taken 15 minutes, before he went to pester another customer. Nasty piece of work. 

I made 100% sure he was outside when it came to paying the bill. Only had one drink and decided enough was enough.

Next I went into BBB. Some boys on stage in full clothing and about 10 customers. I left without buying a drink.

Next I went round the corner to see how things were at Dreamboys. As I approached the door a guy went straight inside. Bad sign. I ŵas right and there were no customers and about 5 boys scrambling to get on the stage. I decided it was not for me sitting there alone.

As I was leaving BT I walked past A Bomb and so had a look inside. Again no customers. A few boys in underwear.

All rather disappointing for a Saturday evening between 10 and 11 pm.

I returned to Jomtien which was heaving!

Thanks for the report. Keep us update !

Like Ben, I've never been to Pattaya and intend to visit (Nov). I went over Vinapu's post, and marked all the places on gglmps. Here comes my first batch of newbie questions.

1. Why r NiceBoys & others defined as Jometien Complex, when they r so far from it?

2. Given Gerefen's report (which reinforces Londoner's observation), why bother with Boyztown at all?

3. If indeed Jometien is all that's left and it's all about twinks, what do I do as a non twinks-oriented guy? 

4. According to gglmps, Sunee Plaza bar is "prmnntly clsd"....

5. Do I rmmbr crctly, that Dreamboys is the most promiscuous place, inclding patrons-boys sucking in pblc?

[Olddaddy]

What I saw last trip is Boyztown is far more expensive in regards to pricing 

The guys in Boyztown seem more muscular,more " top" types than Jomtien Complex who seem to me more feminine twinky .

Sunee is open , Nice boys Go Go in Sunee had more man type guys with tattoos and there was customer interaction with guys ,I tipped several guys and played with their cocks & balls 

Winner Go Go in Sunee also has a lot of twinky guys and I sucked off a few guys in there sitting next to me .

I had two guys sit next to me on the bench,bought them both drinks and sucked their young hard dicks,both sitting next to me with ducks standing proud , I couldn't decide which guy to take back to the room so started sucking one off and I really wanted to sit my old butt on his standing up hard cock,riding him with my back to him ,  but I would be riding him up & down in front of the stage so decided just to suck him off and take the other guy  back to my room,not only that the Go Go bar owner Paul was walking around so decided against riding that hard dick in there .🥒

I doubt they allow that in Boyztown Go Go bars though 😂

🔵( I should add that I use the word "guys" rather than the word "boys" which I'm sure many "Karen's" that read these forums would take meaning as something else,so I use the word "guys," rather than boys which to me people/Karen's could interpret as another meaning IE underage, hopefully many of you will follow suit rather than use that outdated word "boy" )🔵

 

 

[Vessey]

Lots of good information here about the three main gay areas, and yes, I still count Sunee - plenty of life left in that old dog yet! I have had some stunning nights in Winner Boys and Nice Boys in the past.

But there are also boys to be found everywhere across the city -

There are dedicated boy massage shops, but also mixed-gender massage shops with boys. Happy endings are available in most boy massage shops, and also in the mixed-gender shops occasionally. 

And as the bars close of an evening and the late-night clubs and karaoke bars open across Pattaya there are hundreds of boys to meet, party with and possibly more, until the wee small hours of the morning.  Most karaoke bars are Thai orientated, but we have never been turned away from one, and there are a bewildering number of them!  Many of the boys are straight, but most will party with guys as happily as girls.

@colmx is the expert on these and the clubs and could say more.

1. *Where*  are they defined as Jomtien? Nice Boys and Winner are both in Sunee (ok, NB is technically just outside, but it's at the entrance)

4. Sunee Plaza contains many bars. Not all are shown on Google. Some are closed, permanently or otherwise, but not all.

1.Likely poor choice of words or lack or come where it should be. Winners and Nice Boys are like others said in Sunee

2.always go and see for yourself, why bother with Boyztown ? BoyzBoyzBOyz, ToyBoys, Castro, Picketty(spelling?- bar with host boys across BBB ), Scandic and Paradise massage, ABomb, Dreamboys and XBoys is your answer

3. Boyztown , massage places across the city and apps is your help

4.Google Maps lies

5. that would be Nice Boys. Is that really your thing watching patrons sucking boys in the bar ? You want be next to suck that boy right after previous buy finished? Live some fun for your room

I wouldn't be too inclined to worry about the "Karens" of the world. Judging by recent posts, us old timers have too many other pressing issues that concern us.

(BTW, I had no idea what the term referred to and had to look it up.)

“Sunny Plaza contains many bars”

Are you sure about that? Apart from the two Gogo bars (Winner and Nice Boys) there are perhaps only 2 or 3 other bars left. They are usually empty.

Compare that with Jomtien which now has almost 30 bars of various descriptions ranging from show bars to small stall type bars. 

It also has many good restaurants. Boyztown and Sunee both have none.

All well & good but no go Go bars in jomtien complex where you can line the guys up and look at their balls 😊

And all this while, I was wondering why we're being morally policed by an ethnic minority of Myanmar, the Karens!

I will continue using the word "boys". Trying too hard to avoid doing so renders our speech stilted and artificial. In any case, remember the sitcom "Golden Girls"? Those girls were way older than our boys.

But some of us love the decadence, sitting there with a boys' cock in one hand and a beer in the other, taking it in turns to suck one then the other until both are finished/'finished' haha.  Makes my cock stir just thinking about it

For the uninitiated, the definition of Karen  from the Slang Dictionary website:

Karen is a pejorative slang term for an obnoxious, angry, entitled, and often racist middle-aged white woman who uses her privilege to get her way or police other people’s behaviors.

As featured in memes, Karen is generally stereotyped as having a blonde bob haircut, asking to speak to retail and restaurant managers to voice complaints or make demands, and being an anti-vaxx , Generation X soccer mom.

In 2020, Karen spread as a label used to call out white women who were captured in viral videos engaging in what are widely seen as racist acts.

So even by your reckoning that's at least four or five functioning bars, empty or not.  I hope you'll agree that a bar with no customers is still a bar?

How big is "many", and is a bar that's closed still a bar? 😵
