NEW BAR
Re: NEW BAR
Good suggestion Pete.
For any newbies who may not have heard the story, How do you make a small fortune from a bar in Thailand ? start out with a big one!
I would never dream of buying a bar to try and earn a good income, it wouldn't work, if the bar became very succesful that's when the problems would arise because of jealousy etc.
But if you could have somewhere with sleeping quarters, also maybe 1 ST room, well???

US: I was thinking the same but I dont think its the original chopper in Night Crawlers. Sounds like a bogus poster having a laugh unless im mistaken.usual suspect wrote:Is 'Chopper123' who posted this thread any relation to 'chopper'.?? Who a coupla months ago lost everything to his Thai lady on more than 1 occasion (she did give him a STD in return). This man posted in 'night-crawlers begging us not to drink in his bar that SHE now had full control over..I'm also sure a clue was left to
the name of the bar being French for butterfly. I am very sorry if there are 2 bars in town by this name, and this post makes me look an even bigger prat. (previous topic in N/Cs was titled 'be aware,be very aware').
Walked past the bar in question the other night and it was dead!
Re: NEW BAR
I had a drink with them one night and they are very friendly people. Seem to be no trouble whatsoever in the time I stayed at Jings. They were there every night and not one ounce of trouble. But as you say, on 1st appearances, they could put you off going into such bar if they are there drinking opposite every night.Super Joe wrote:Prospective bar owners should do a little bit of homework and sit in, or very near, the bar they're gonna buy. This one is always gonna struggle because of the Thai lads that sit across from it every night getting smashed. I've never noticed them to be any trouble, they just look like it.

Re: NEW BAR
When I open a bar it will be called "Fresh Off The Farm Bar" , with some lovely young new talent from Buriram.
Also available will be an 'interview room' where you can spend a Short Time interviewing the lady to see if she is a possible 'keeper'.
All I need now is to win tomorrows Lottery.

Gus great business plan! i will say this bar is up for sale, for less than half spent, and it really is not a bad bar inside but for sure over supply everywhere.
So what makes any bar stand out from another, to start with society's will help but i think you need to be rich and want a hobby, or have your brain removed at the airport.

Re: NEW BAR
I forgot to mention up north where i am at present you can rent a three story shop unit for Baht 3,000k a month and if you rent two and make it a double unit you will get your normal usage electricity for free.
Now for me i will bus 25km's just for a wet and to use there WIFI and farang food make it really worth while.
Bars up here have more chance of making a go of it.

Re: NEW BAR
I have lived in Thailand for 11 years and have known a number of friends that opened bars,sad to say not one ever made any money,maybe had fun along the way but in the end lost it all.
Re: NEW BAR
OK, my sources tell me that Goannas/Lolitas/Linley bar is due to re-open on Sunday 16th as UP2U bar.

Re: NEW BAR
Why is that less than good news Mr Gus?!
Is this farang in question a proper gimpish idiot?
Kendo, how is it that bars up north have a 'better go at it'?
It thought there wasn't much business up them thar parts...

The guy is a drunken lunatic. Responsible for creating chaos in Binta and soi 80. Only his wallet has saved him from being locked up or deported.
Steer clear. He's walking a fine line

Now then Richard, don't hold back...The guy is a drunken lunatic
..say what you really think..
How a bar owner runs his premises doesn't really bother me - variety is great...
except when he or she has the bad manners to blast the eardrums of everyone else in the soi..
Yes, the technology exists now to play music at extreme volumes without spending a fortune on kit, but that doesn't make it a good idea to do so..
Excess volume does not put baht in the till (in HH at least, it is clear that the noisiest bars are not the busiest) - and it is certainly most inconsiderate.
I for one will not patronise any bars that use excess volume in their sound systems.
I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I shall be sober and you will still be ugly...
