No idea but I see they travel to do massage, if anyone is local to give them some work:

I agree with MFAS.
Surely if Nice Boys was to reopen next Tuesday then all gogo bars and ordinary bars would reopen.
As for reopening behind closed doors, well...TiT
You mean it is "not permitted", which in Thailand is rather different to "not possible".Quote:

At the time, certain local contributors were insistent that such places were closed, but by actually going out, looking and even being a customer, one found that some were open.
I'd still be surprised if the bar opened, but I wouldn't assume anything is closed without checking it.
I have heard rumors of something happening on June 15, concerning bars or massage shops, as well as July 1. But shops and bars are closed now and no alcohol is served in restaurants.
Sorry I should have known when the announcement was attached to a request for an extra 1000bT for work clothes
(that are never purchased). Also merit for deceased friend and now it's room rent.
I usually send the money anyway and delete my Facebook for a couple weeks
to keep budgets in check.
Dab69. "work clothes"!!!
One of the joys of Nice Boys is that work clothes often comprises footwear only.
FUCK I MISS PATTAYA.
Nice Boys management is enterprising and will find a way to make a baht, if the way exists.Quote:

If Nice Boys ever reopens it will benefit from the demise of Boystown leaving basically 2 Gogo bars NB and winner both offering vastly different boys. I’ve been to Winner before a few tImes and it certainly is not my cup of tea however, the problem with NB is that nothing ever changes including the boys who are getting rather long in the tooth and rarely do you see a new one and most of the top shelf boys are long gone. I imagine those longing to return will be happy with whatever is on offer after emerging from sexual hibernation.
He just sent pictures of cleaning up the bar getting ready for opening.
If I had an interest in visiting Nice Boys, I'd just call Beer (the owner) and ask him if they were going to be open or not.
(phone number deleted)
If you want Beer's number, perhaps you can obtain it via a PM.
Or see their website http://www.niceboyspattaya.com/contact.html
So, did it reopen?????
June 15? Today is June 19…… https://www.pattayamail.com/latestne...-closed-360223
Do any of the expat board members ever wander out there to check these things ?
I suppose going in the bar is risky if covid is circulating.
Risky if the police are circulating, I'd have thought.Quote:

Why else are so many other laws ignored ?
Admittedly, over the years, they seem to have hit the Sunnee bars harder than some of the other entertainment in the city.
This is not what I have heard. An ex-pat bar that had a few people inside that were drinking alcohol out of coffee cups, were fined (Trump) bigly. As I understand it, the owner faces prison or even deportation.Quote:

Sounds like it is changing now.
Yes expats check these things and bars are not open.Quote:
