The Tree House, Pattaya, Thailand.

The Tree House is a quiet place to go for some grub or a coffee and cake. Or even both! Pleasant clean and inexpensive! Nicely decorated inside and a nice garden outside which is worth a wander round with a childrens play area and swings. Food is a gentle mixture of Thai and Farang including snacks and a showcase of assorted cakes to choose from. Staff are always helpful and polite and in abundance! Oh did I mention Bingsu? This is a Korean dessert which is made from Shaved Ice and sounds at first a bit of a non starter but in fact is, surprisingly, really good and worth a […]

Aroi Restaurant, Pattaya, Thailand.

This is a very nice Pub and Restaurant and it has a Continental flavour. Ok it is actually a Continental Restaurant. They have been around here a while now but they have just moved about 400 metres further up the road (away from the Sukhumvit ) and round the corner on the left. Easy to follow signs are there to help find the new location, but it is on the road opposite the new CJ Supermarket. I always thought the old place was a bit oversize, but maybe that was just because of the long and narrow layout. The new place is a little smaller but it is not small […]

Bake n’ Brew, Coffee Cakes n’ Breakfast, Soi Excite, Pattaya City, Thailand.

A great place to get a good Breakfast and good Coffee. Plenty of choices and consistently good quality. Just stop by for a coffee and a cake there is a good range in a glass cabinet to tempt your palate. Easy access because Bake n’ Brew is situated between Third Road and Soi Buakhao. One of my favourite things is the “Bread Buffet” which is included with the main breakfast sets. A good selection of Bread with a Toaster, Butter, Jam and Marmalade! Ok there are times when you grab a slice and its a bit dry but that’s because customers can’t be asked to keep the slices together and […]

Front of Time Out Bistro

Time Out Bistro Coffee, Pattaya, Thailand.

A very nice little Continental Bistro, Cafe, Deli and Bakery. This is a very multi-functional place. Hot or cold food, Cakes, Coffee, Beer, Wine or Spirits as a Cafe. Bread, Cheese, Cooked Meats, Cakes, Bottles of Wine or a Coffee Machine and Coffee pods as a Bakery/Deli. Food is always good and I usually have a breakfast which comes with a juice and a nice coffee. Sometimes something a little smaller or just different, chosen from the bi-lingual menu. Being on open fronted Cafe there is, of course, always a chance of someone with a fag on, but the two innermost tables have a no smoking sign which is always […]

Naklua Fish Market, Naklua, Pattaya, Thailand.

Naklua Fish Market, Naklua, Pattaya, Thailand. Like Fish and Chips do we?? Well just forget about that. No sign of Cod and Chips here. This market is a veritable visual cacophony of seafood. I have no idea what a lot of them are, but there are a few I seem to recognise. Squid, Octopus, Small Prawns, Wowthatsbig Prawns, Crabs, Mussels, Pink fish, Silver Fish, Small Silver Fish, Scallops, Horseshoe Crabs, Oysters, Cockles As well as the fresh fish there is the usual dried Squid, and stalls of assorted Vegetables. If you want to take some up (or down) country you can buy a polystyrene box and fill it with Seafood […]

Surf Kitchen, Beach Road, Jomtien, Pattaya.

Surf Kitchen is a pleasant beach front Restaurant. Sat right on the edge of Beach Road it is at the end of Soi 5 if you are coming from Immigration (which is the opposite end) and are in need of some sustainance. Lets face it after a trip there everyone needs at least a cuppa! This is a very popular place and usually plenty of customers, probably because of its inexpensive prices and prime location. Food has always been good and one of my favourite parts is the No Smoking Section. Always a bone of contention for me when sitting outside so I think this is a great idea, it […]

Mini Bar, Soi Khao Talo, Pattaya, Thailand.

This is not just another open fronted single unit bar. Situated on the left going up Soi Khao Noi, opposite the market on the right. This is a very friendly and welcoming place to pop into. A place to drop in with your wife or girlfriend. Very much a meeting place for some of the local community as well as passers by who are either expats or tourists staying nearby. Inside is a pool table with seating at the front and rear. Out front there are tables and chairs one side and a bar with bar stools the other. There is a Quiz Night on every second Wednesday Evening and […]

The Chilled, Soi Khao Noi, Pattaya, Thailand

This is a mini Shopping Mall. Located on busy Soi Khao Noi it is a recent and welcome addition for the “Dark Side” of Pattaya. There is ample parking at the front, the side and underneath.  Once inside, the biggest shop is a well stocked Tops Supermarket (who are linked with Waitrose). Plenty of imported foodstuffs on the shelves. Tops also have an integral cafe where they have a good range of nice food, cooked to order in an open kitchen. There have some bar style seating along the front window, so you can eat or have coffee watching the world go by!  For a healthy option they have a […]

Tropical Bar and Restaurant, Soi Khao Noi

Ok, this is a good place for some good food.  Sausage and Mash to Fish and Chips. Cooked breakfast to Sunday dinners. And they (apparently according to my Thai Food Tasting Department) make some good Thai food! They have been here a few years now although they seem to have magically moved across the road from their starting position which has given them a bit more room and some parking outside. Going back even further they were previously on the other side of Pattaya just  adjacent to Second Road when they were known as Tropical Berts. There is a small filing cabinet where you can ( very conveniently I would […]

Suggestions Cosy Restaurant

I have always had good food here. Good food well presented in sumptuous surroundings I would say it is not for the “Budget Conscious” but that’s just rubbish. I and I think, most people, are always “Budget Conscious” to a degree.  What we are happy to pay depends on the service and quality we perceive. If you want something a little better or a little something economical then you go to that outlet. There is a copious variety of food on the menu here, and things usually start with Complementary Bread and Butter basket with some Pate. As we arrived a little earlier than usual the Lunch menu was still […]
