Pattaya Venue Directory: Hand-Picked Venues with Maps and Directions
Welcome to the Pattaya Venue Directory. Search for somewhere to drink in Pattaya and you’ll find a pile of “best of” lists, most of them put together by someone scraping review sites and rewording whatever turns up. They can’t tell you whether the beer is cold, whether the band drowns out the conversation or whether the place is dead on a Tuesday. This directory is different. I’ve been to every venue in it and would send a mate to.
The entries in this Pattaya venue directory is not extensive on purpose. It presents places that are worth visiting. It tries to cover as many venue types as possible so you can find the experience you are after. Treat it as a list of safe places to visit while you are in Pattaya.
There’s no ranking here. Prices move with the season, so check before you order.
How to Use This Page
The Pattaya venue directory is in four sections: Bar Areas, Bars, Massage and Go-Gos. Start with the areas, because where you drink decides most of what you pay and what the night feels like. Then work down to individual venues once you know which end of town suits you.
Each listing has two buttons. View Map opens Google Maps on the venue so you can see what is around it and read the current reviews. Directions sets the venue as your destination and routes you there from wherever you are standing.
Both buttons need mobile data, so sort out an eSIM before you land (see Best eSIM for Thailand). If you are heading home by Grab or Bolt, walk 20 metres or so away from any motorbike taxi stand before you drop your pin. Never drop it inside Walking Street, because the street is closed to cars in the evening.
The tag under each name is my short take on what the place is good for. It is not a star rating. I haven’t listed any venue I haven’t visited, and you should be wary of any directory that has.
At the bottom of the list, there is an interactive map to view the locations relative to each other.
Use the links below to skip to the section you are interested in. The same links appear at the end of each category.

Bar Areas
For a rough guide, a local beer in a beer bar area runs 60 – 120 Baht, a bottled beer in a go-go bar area 140 – 180 Baht and a bar fine anywhere from 400 Baht in a beer bar to 2,500 Baht or more on Walking Street (November 2026).
Walking Street
A 500 metre wall of neon, go-go bars, clubs and seafood restaurants, closed to traffic from the evening and peaking between 11 pm and 2 am. It is a must on a first trip and the dearest street in town, with go-go bar fines running 1,000 – 2,500 Baht. Don’t get stuck here.
Soi LK Metro
The L-shaped soi joining Soi Buakhao and Soi Diana Inn, packed with go-go bars, open-air bars and pubs in a stretch you can cover on foot. It works as a mini Walking Street without the Walking Street prices, with bottled beer in the go-gos around 140 – 170 Baht.
Tree Town
A big open-air complex off Soi Buakhao with a dozen or more bars sharing one compound, live music and a night market beside it. Street food runs about 40 – 80 Baht a meal, which makes it an easy place to eat before you drink.
Soi Buakhao
The working spine of central Pattaya nightlife, dense with beer bars, small go-gos, markets, live music and cheap food. The crowd is older and more mixed than on Walking Street, local beer commonly runs 60 – 100 Baht and weekdays are quieter and cheaper again.
Soi 6
A short street of open-front bars on both sides, with the women calling out from the front row and short-time rooms upstairs. It opens from early afternoon, beer runs 70 – 120 Baht and your first walk down it will be intimidating. Do the whole street once before you sit down.
Soi 7
Classic horseshoe-bar territory between Beach Road and Second Road, with the bars clustered towards the beach end. Expect crowded lanes, competing music and happy-hour beer of roughly 60 – 80 Baht.
Soi 8
Parallel to Soi 7 with a similar mix of open-air beer bars, sports pubs and budget rooms. Development has thinned the bar count over the years and the crowds moved towards Soi Buakhao, so a weeknight here means plenty of open stools.
Soi 2
A northern soi with easy access to Beach Road that was a proper beer bar strip in the mid-2000s. Most of what is left is soapy and body massage venues, and the evening pulse has moved south. Worth a look if you are in the area, not worth a trip on its own.
Soi 3
Right beside Soi 2 and much the same story, with local businesses, massage parlours and quiet guesthouses where the beer bars used to be. Pair it with Soi 2 if you are after a massage rather than a bar crawl.
Soi Bongkot
A quiet residential soi linking South Pattaya and Pattaya Klang, full of long-stay rentals and local guesthouses. This is somewhere to sleep, not somewhere to drink, and the trade-off is a short ride to anywhere that matters.

Bars
A mix of beer bars, sports bars, live music venues and pubs. Check the price of your own drink before it arrives, count the slips in your bin as you go and leave the bell alone unless you know what it covers.
Excite Club
A BJ bar in the middle of the central nightlife near Soi Buakhao, so you are never far from the next option. Details on this one are thin, so check current reviews and prices before you settle in. Services are performed in seating areas with curtains.
King Kong
An old-style closed-front BJ bar in the Soi 6 area, known for cold drinks and friendly service. Expect Soi 6 pricing, with beer around 70 – 120 Baht, and ask what a lady drink costs before you say yes.
Scooter’s Bar
A well-known biker-friendly bar on Soi Buakhao with a relaxed feel and classic tunes on the system. It suits a quiet afternoon beer or a slow start to the night.
Billabong Bar
An Australian-managed sports bar in the LK Metro area with proper food and plenty of screens. A sensible stop when you want the footy and a feed before heading back into the go-gos.
I-Rovers Sports Bar Restaurant & Guesthouse
A big, busy sports bar in LK Metro with hearty food, the match on every screen and rooms upstairs. Handy if you want your base, your dinner and your beer under one roof, though the noise outside runs late.
Cherry Bar
Located in the lively Soi Diana Inn corridor, Cherry Bar offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere for a cold drink and friendly conversation. Adam is good to have a chat to if you are looking for local insights or a welcoming face behind the counter. It’s a classic stop to unwind right in the heart of the central nightlife zone.
Ruby Club
A bar near the Soi 6 entertainment district, so you get the street’s pace and pricing without much else to go on. Ask what a lady drink and a bar fine cost before you order anything.
Red Point Bar
A drinks spot in the Soi 6 neighbourhood with a welcoming feel for an evening session. Check the board for prices as you walk in, because they change from bar to bar along this stretch.
Corner Bar
A sports and pub venue close to the Soi 6 action, useful for a beer and the match when you want a break from the front-row calling. Prices and the crowd change with the day, so look before you sit.
Sailor Bar & Restaurant
A long-running open-air spot on Soi 7 with cheap food, cheap beer and a front-row view of the soi going by. It is one of the easiest places in the area to eat and drink without spending much.
Rolling Live 3
A live music bar on the Soi 7 side of town with bands and a lively crowd. Sit well back from the stage if you want to talk and up the front if you don’t.
Darksiders Genesis Bar
A themed bar out on the Dark Side in East Pattaya, favoured by expats and riders. You need a Grab, Bolt or motorbike to get there and shouldn’t count on a baht bus home late at night.
Paddy’s Irish Pub & Grill
An Irish pub in the east of town with traditional pub food, Guinness on tap and a cosy room. It is a long way from the tourist strip, so sort your ride home before you settle in.

Go-Gos
Go-go bars are air-conditioned, have no entry fee and run a stage show in rotation. Expect a bottled beer at 140 – 180 Baht, a lady drink at 195 – 300 Baht and a bar fine of 800 – 2,500 Baht depending on the area and the dancer (November 2026). Name her price before you pay the bar fine, and pay when she leaves, not before.
Pin-Up A Go Go
One of the top-tier go-go bars on Walking Street, known for its stage shows and the fit-out. Expect premium pricing, with lady drinks around 220 – 300 Baht and bar fines at the top of the Walking Street range.
XS A Gogo
A high-energy go-go bar on Walking Street with bright lighting, loud music and a busy floor. Like its neighbours it charges Walking Street prices, so check the drinks board before you order.
Baccara A Go Go
A multi-level go-go bar on Walking Street with a spacious layout and good views of the stage from most seats. Some dancers in the bigger venues work through agencies, which is why the better-looking ones cost more.
Windmill Club Agogo Bar
One of the best-known and wildest adult venues on Walking Street, and a regular first-trip stop for the name alone. Go for the show, set a budget before you walk in and leave the bell alone.
Kink A Go Go
A go-go bar in the LK Metro zone, where bar fines commonly land between 800 and 1,500 Baht, well under Walking Street. A good way to try the go-go format without the top-tier bill.
Lady Love Club
A nightlife venue with shows and drinks in the central bar district, right beside the LK Metro go-gos. Ask what a lady drink costs before you order, because pricing varies between venues on the same soi.

Massage
Soapies price the package upfront, so ask what it covers and how long you get. Ordinary massage shops price the massage as a massage, about 200 Baht an hour for traditional Thai and 300 Baht for oil (2026), with a 50 – 100 Baht tip. Anything beyond that is agreed in the room, never at the counter, and the number gets settled before anything happens.
For what it expect at a massage place, see Massage Experience. For a soapy massage, see Soapy Experience.
Honey 1 Soapy
One of the established soapy massage houses near LK Metro, where you choose your lady, agree the package price and head to a private room. You know what you are buying before you walk through the door. This is a full service venue.
Pure (Sensual Massage)
A sensual massage venue in the central area close to Soi Buakhao. Services and prices are agreed on before heading inside.
Relax Massage
A venue similar to Pure. The services and price is agreed on before heading back. Look out for their happy hour deal before 7pm. The base price is on a two-for-one deal. This does not include extra services.
Sabai Dee Body Massage
A soapy massage parlour near Soi 2, offering full service at fixed prices. The north end is where most of the surviving massage trade now sits, so you have a few shops to compare within a short walk. For what to expect, see Soapy Experience.
Honey Body Massage 2
A branch of the Honey massage group near Soi 3, offering soapy bady massage. Confirm the price and what it includes at the door, because the Honey branches don’t all run the same way.
PP Body Massage
A body massage and wellness venue on the northern edge of the Soi Buakhao area. Ask for the price list before you lie down and keep small notes handy for the tip. Like other soapies it offers full service.
Grand Honey 3
A multi-storey soapy massage and spa venue towards the south end of town, with a bigger range of services than the small shops. Ask what each package covers and how long you get before you pick one.
KINBI Nuru Massage
A Japanese-style Nuru massage venue near Walking Street, aimed at the pricier end of the market. Settle the package and the time before you start, because this is the kind of place where the extras add up quickly.
Ringo Nuru Massage
A spa and Nuru massage venue out towards Sukhumvit, well away from the nightlife strips. You will want a Grab or Bolt to get there and back, so factor the ride into the price.
Venues open, close and change owners often in this town. If a pin lands on a shuttered shopfront, tell me and I will update the list. For the full rundown on how the bins, bells, lady drinks and bar fines work, read the bars guide next.
