There is a little bar street, named "Soi Busstation".
You will find some Expats there.

Bars

You will find expats in virtually every bar in Cha Am Except the ones along the major road down to the beach.
You can identify these easily since they have Thai girl singers on stage.

There is also the Wednesday market. This opens around 5pm. There's a Thai run bar, selling lager/soft drinks. Bring your own spirits though!
Walk (or drive) up the main road (towards train station), it is situated on the left.

Whittler, steer clear of "Soi Busstation", frequented by pi$$heads of all nations!
Wednesday night market might be the place, as stated above.

Yeah I can vouch for the Wednesday Market, Cha Am goes right off mid-week.
Smart/casual, no slippers. If your name's not on the immigration retirement list you're not coming in.

A quiet relaxing weekend on Walking Street Pattaya is always in order after the hedonism of the Cha Am Wednesday Market.

Post by whittler »

Thanks for the heads up, guys. I may have to put my trip on hold,
they just found a growth on my lower spine. I am taking test now,
to see if it is benign.

I told my son if I have to I will come back on a gurney, he said if so he would push me, on the gurney. lol

Hello, Cha-am is my favorite place away from home:
I run there every time I need a change of scenery... Walk around a bit, you'll meet the ex-pats, make friends and enjoy the exercise:

- meet Paul, a Brit., runs the Internet shop, turn left onto Beach Road from Nanthip (sp?) - around the corner, next to 7-11 (reserved, friendly & helpful - not in your face - there if you need him/have questions)
- meet Bob (Holland) - turn up Soi Busstation from Beach road and stay on the right side - stop at the second Massage Shop (purple facade)
- eat on the corner of Beach Road/Soi Busstation, on the left side - Thai lady - cannot recall her name - friendly & very nice/good Thai food/good English - married to a Brit (he is not there much/not real friendly)
- walk to the end of Soi Busstation and turn left - Crawfords, an Irish restaurant (sorry no Guinness on tap) owned by an Irishman, John Yates, from County Wicklow (?) (but, now, for health reasons) he sublets to an Aussie chef (forgot his name) but the food is great and he and others gather here for major sports events (john is still around).
- ARROY Restaurant - walk to the end of Soi Busstation and turn right - same street as Irish Rest. - good Thai food /lousy service - but frequented by falangs...
- GH run by a Frenchman (forgot his name) - very nice/I've stayed there - walk up Soi Busstation from Beach road - first GH on the right side - very nice rooms/attention-to-detail. (only Baht 600, I think)
- Brit owned souvenir shop on left side of Soi BusStation - third to last shop on the left (forgot his name also)
