New in Pattaya Soi 2 & 3 + Sharples Jomtien

[@seizethedayandlive]

Stayed at Sabai Lodge years ago and liked it. It felt like a step into the past. The rooms on the ground floor open up to the pool in the middle! Very nice.

[@paulclayton1919]

Used to stay on soi 3 back in the early 2000s there was a guesthouse called Chaplins. It was ran by a guy called Willie costello great guy and a great place to stay.

[@gregdtx]

Willie was a very nice bloke RIP

[@ciaranmac1926]

Soi 3 was great fun at tge beer bar my last night in November and we went for dinner at the Mytt Hotel Pippa restaurant to celebrate Jims wife Sais birthday very nice evening 😀

[@greedisgood3]

The Welcome Inn was a must stop for me in the morning. Rooms in the back were very accommodating for 2 AND 3somes. Great memories early 90"s.

[@richardcyphers9529]

Great video injoy watching it..😁👍📹

[@paulparkes6383]

Hi Nick, yes it was called Simon fish shop it was a Blue shop right where sharples is or near it, and had about 12 or 14 tables wasm't bad either.

[@MichaelGriffin-s8z]

G’day, Great episode, I love good fish & chips, I’m making a list of good eats, thanks Nick. Cheers Michael

[@michaeltaylorceng]

Hi Nick, that garden in Soi 2 was a wing of the Sabai Lodge, but it was demolished a couple of years ago along with the restaurant. I've stopped there a few times. Also, I watched the lightning during a thunderstorm from the top of the Sunshine Vista on Soi 3. I was swimming in the pool at the time. Not the smartest thing I've ever done. 😅

[@mikediffley2042]

Thanks for showing me around Nick, I like the idea of the quiet hotel on Soi 2 and 3. and it's close to Beach Road. Catch you on the next one.

[@davetherave1729]

Love to videos nick keep them coming. Hoping to visit Thailand again in February /March.

[@invisibleme4394]

Soi 2 used to be Leks classroom gogo, and another go go next to it, opposite where siam siam is now, was a load of bars, one was toy bar. probably one of the best areas back in the day. Soi 3 night time, you will have a good time. New Star bar.

[@johnhorne1161]

We always used to go to Soi 2 bars around 15 years ago. The Classroom was opposite the Soi 2 bars. Went to Soi 3 bars last New Year's Eve, with friends. Was a great night and girls poll dancing in the bars and on top of the sides of the bars!

[@travelsolo2677]

That club on Soi 2 was The Honey Pot I reckon, I loved it. It disappeared around 8yrs ago. I used to always stay at Sabai Sabai Lodge.

[@richardwhite8399]

I remember the Welcom Inn in Soi 3.

[@gordon7260]

good video Nick and that fish and chips looked the business

[@alanharrison694]

You are right. I remember a fish and chips place in the early 2000s, and you had a choice of local fish, or imported fish for somewhat more. I have been meaning to get over to Sharples, but it looks like I have to go very hungry.

[@Tex_Symbol69]

FYI, inside that hotel the holiday lodge on Soi 3, there is a big photo collection of Pattaya in the 50s, 60s, 70s on the wall in the lobby . Kev in Thailand did a video about it, and I checked it out, was very good !

[@NDTViThailand]

Thanks for the info.

[@rootoothelmet2387]

Stayed at the Sabai Inn maybe 10 times and the Sabai Lodge (and the Sabai Resort other side of Second Road) in the early 2000s. There was a group of maybe 30 bars where the blue hotel is now which were brilliant, and the Classroom was on the corner opposite the bars. I remember bar ladies dancing completely naked in those bars on the bar counters - that what made it brilliant. Soi 3 used to have shacks under the trees that served cheap food and beer.

[@lesliestevenson7646]

Another great video, I stayed at Sabai Resort couple of times , but it is completely demolished now , just a massive vacant block of land opposite soi 3 . Is anything happening there ??? Thanks for the updates.

[@barryjones7553]

Hi Nick, great video. Back in the 90s Soi 2 had loads of micro bars. Used to go there and The Welcome Inn also the soapy massage 😅😅😅😅. Great times. The A1 Hotel ( Boat ) has been there for years. I can remember it from the 90s.

[@karltraveldude7817]

I always stay a few days on Soi 3 , nice and quite and good bar complex ! Thanks for sharing , enjoy ...

[@liamharding5704]

Good video....😊 Was in Sharples when they were in tree town and disappointed when they left only for u to point out they opened on new plaza.. I went last week, was stuffed leaving..the best fish n chips in town i have to say.. i will check out their shop in Jomtien on Friday.. I will starve myself first as I only eat Ahan falang on a Friday and Sunday..

[@paulv5233]

Hi Nick & Dan Thanks for the Vlog great to see other parts of Pattaya, Soi 2&3 plenty hotels and quieter with easy to get around on Bath Bus. The fish and chips also look very good your like me love me gravy on the chips and mushy peas reminds me of Dublin also nicely fitted out restaurant bit pricey but you get what you paid for. You need to get yourself a hat of some kind you be burnt to a cinder also protect you from skin cancer. Look forward to you visiting new places thank you and Dan for all your hard work bringing these walk about to us. Getting closer to November but who’s counting 😂 Keep up the great work Cheers Irish Paul

[@nelco69]

Hi, Guys. Over the years I have spent a few afternoon delights at Soi's 2 and 3. The bars were a bit like the bars used to be on Soi 6 back in the day, closed in, and there was always plenty of extracurricular activity in the rooms at the back of the bars. Allegedly! lol. The difference now is night and day. The Sharples restaurant in Jomtien looks great. The food looked well tasty, and the portion size was more than enough. But 380 Bhat is a little expensive, not too expensive, but it would be a now-and-then thing for me. Another great video. I missed the Sunday show again this week. Actually I didn't miss it. Just before I was going to put my name down my comments disappeared. I was going to comment on it over the past couple of days, but iI have been way too busy. Never mind I will catch the next one Neil.

[@williamruby9691]

Nick mate. What about doing a tour of the bars along 2nd Road from Soi 6 to the Dolphin Roundabout? There used to be many and handy for Central Marina Mall and of course Terminal 21!

[@NDTViThailand]

Yeah it looks like these bars have sprung back to life.

[@Nathan-cd6gu]

That big blue hotel Siam @ Siam is my go too hotel up that end of Pattaya that roof top bar you pointed out is almost emptly every time I have been up there. Nick those beer bar on soi 3 have been there for years where One Mansion hotel is where there was more beer bars back in 2012

[@DansThaiFoodChannel]

I had one piece of the cod. Can not even start with the chips very full. Cod was amazing. Im a Thai guy i need spicy somtam as a side dish hehe. ❤😂

[@Martinjp147]

Hi nick, martin from plymouth here, I stay in soi 3 alot when in town, great soi, beer bard as you seen, and I use the little restaurant you pointed out across from the thai food market, family run, great food. I also stay next door in TJ guesthouse, nice soi that

[@michellemcgarry3688]

Thanks another great video but I was waiting to see one of my favourites Atlantic bar. We stayed in the sabai Lodge our 1st time in Pattaya .

[@bazab9495]

Really good place to stay, I always try for soi 1,2 or 3 when I come over, I even lived on Soi 1 for six months before the "demic", next to the Summer Spring Hotel, always quite there, a short walk to the Big C and other amenities... would walk off my hangover in the morning all the way down to the Pattaya Beer Garden for breakfast : )... good times

[@NDTViThailand]

That's a fair walk!

[@bazab9495]

[@joncurran7505]

Hey Nick and Dan hope you are well ? stayed at the Ibis In June for a few days enjoyed it bit of a change from central Pattaya or Soi Bongkot area before bumping into you both at the Tyson Fury event in Bangkok lol.

[@paulwildman6067]

Leks was at the top of Soi 2. And Sabai Lodge was okay certainly value for money, ,admittedly that was 10 years ago.

[@Darryl_Smith]

My old stamping ground in my drinking days. Where Siam Siam is now was a massive bar area - live music with Yuth bar. They had to move around the corner into 2nd road. Noi No 1 bar where its now massage. Spent boat loads of cash. always looked after and made great friends there. Oh well, goodbye youth....sniff!

[@Simonize41]

Thanks Nick, I enjoyed this tour round. I hope you didn’t bake too much. All the best.🍻

[@shane0traveller451]

Soi 2 and 3 my old hang out! Which i miss bad 555

[@Buggsy61]

Good one. By the way Sabai Lodge is closing soon- another great and cheap traditional Thai hotel getting squashed. Stayed there on and off for around 25 years and got to know the staff well. Said goodbye to the lovely receptionist last month I have known for a while - probably for the last time and she had tears in her eyes.

[@jhontaylor1246]

The classroom agogo the zebra bar,toy bar the flamenco the Harley bar, there was a thai night nightclub half way down the soi,and the welcome inn,that garden was the site of the sabbi restaurant and the third swimming pool

[@markhughes9092]

Thanks Nick for the fish and chip review Sharples will be on my list when I'm in jomtien this September. 6:59

Soi 3 beer bars are great, real old school!

[@mikeattewell3713]

Good work... thanx for the tip re family places... not so sure Honey Bee is one though.... 🤪 Will be there in a few weeks with a mate and the fam. Will still bring that Koala for you.

[@tomfooleryx]

Great fish at Sharples. Wrong type of potato is used for the chips. I suspect this is due to availability in Thailand.

[@PREPFORIT]

Interesting Hotel Soi's. I went to Sharples when they were only in TreeTown. There was a line-up and By the time I could order they were out of fish. So I just had a cottage pie and it was delicious. I will go early next time I am in Pattaya or Jomtien 👍🏻

[@kevininsiam]

New intro is very very cool 👍 Love all the food places but those super big potions would knock you off your feet for a few hours 🛏 ZZzzz 😢

[@NDTViThailand]

Yeah it's a big portion even I couldn't finish it.

[@kevininsiam]

​@@NDTViThailand there was a fabulous British restaurant in soi 7 Beach rd end, was there for many years but I stop going because the meals were massive and couldn't not finish it all. Forgot the name of it, but believe the owner was called harry(Harry's place)I sure you would remember it. (on the leftside)

[@CSimpson-l6d]

There was a little beer bar complex at the top of Soi 2 on Second road which included Yuth Bar a great music bar. Unfortunately all now demolished for a new hotel. Great band & great times. Anyone know if Yuth has a new bar?

[@Micky-Rośe24]

I spent a night in those soi 3 bars on my last trip for something different. I actually had a really fun night, well worth checking out. Pippa restaurant is really good although it is bit pricey. Cheers Nick and Dan, I enjoy these soi walks, can't wait to get back in December

[@andersbergman7241]

Nice and see Soi 2-3. Fish and chips, tartar sauce and ketchup for me. Good job boys 👍

[@stevenjones6853]

have they built anything on the old Carlton hotel site soi 5.i stayed there the first time i came to Thailand 18 years ago.

[@scottjackson458]

Simons was nearer to the hanuman statue facing the family mart. The beer complex on 3 use to be worth a visit now and again, more toned down than soi 7 but it's been there for years.

There was a fish and chip shop behind Thap Praya Road that was about 50 yards from Dongtan beach as you walked to Pratumnak as I lived in view talay 5 in 2012

[@siscott6066]

I stayed at the Ibis hotel in 2015 on my first visit I spent a lot of time going into that bar complex it was always busy and I spent my time in Atlantic bar on 2nd road at the top of soi 3 and the girls were stunning 🤪 I had fun with them Def worth mongering in 2015. Ibis hotel is modern and clean great location BAHT bus at both ends.

[@ingopaul67]

Honeypot had the coyote girls dancing in the windows, had a good live band. Classroom agogo was around there too, both owned by Lek.

[@Ironhorse-zg1ix]

Sad news on Sabai Lodge. I used to rotate between it, Sabai Wing, Sabai Resort and some Soi 13 hotels back in the day. Anyone remember the "Begian Embassy" up that way, I think Soi 3? Between that place and the large bar complex up by 2nd road I had some crazy times in my youth 😀

[@Ironhorse-zg1ix]

Belgian Embassy....

Not sure I ever knew of a “Simons” at that location. As someone else mentioned there used to be a “Simple Simons” but it was on Jomtien Soi 5 where it looks like it’s now Cheap Charlie’s.

It has been confirmed as Simon's.
