The LIST of GAY BARS and GOGO's in PATTAYA from 1980 till now

[gerefan2]

Now let’s look at how many gay establishments currently exist:

Boyztown........10?
Sunee..............10?
Jomtien............25?
Odds and sods...5
Not an accurate count by probably not far off the mark.

So of the 377 listed only about 50 remain. Rest gone.

An appalling loss rate wouldn’t one say..even if it is over about 30 years.

Depressing, certainly, but somewhat misleading. I wonder what the maximum number of bars that ever existed AT ANY ONE TIME is. More than 50, no doubt, but as many as 100? I doubt it. Sunee's loss is Jomtien's gain, for instance. I'm not suggesting there's not a big decline, but maybe the picture is not quite as bleak as it looks at first glance.

Very good point

I think with more than 400 bars and gogo's on the list now, I'm nearing the end, but still a few questions to ask:

What was the name of a short lived bar on Thapraya Road just outside the Complex, opposite La Boca Restaurant ?? It was only a month open or so.

In Soi 16 between 2nd Road and Walking Street there was a gay bar (now arabic place) what was it's name??

Around 1985 there was a gay place named Stary Night. Do you know the location ?

T & T was a bar in Soi Yensabai. Do you know where in that Soi?

T & T was a bar in Soi Yensabai. Do you know where in that Soi?

Soi Yensabai is known as "Pattaya Sai 2 Soi 18" on google maps
It borders the south of Sunee and then takes a dog leg near the old Happy Place location and past the old TwoGuys Location as per the highlighted section

T&T Pub is marked in with a Red X on the map, quite close to Pius Place Hotel. It usually got going round 4am with the survivors from NAB, Idol, Dave and Tumnan Issan (or even from Forest house) and was busy until 9am. A lot of the customers were staff and coyotes from the aforementioned clubs. It was such a shock to step out of the night club and into the full morning sun!

A recent street view of the 2 shophouses is also below, around the back is a volleyball area where boys can often be seen playing in the evening (or early morning back in T&T days)
