Supermrio asks if E&G safe. From personal experience I have had no problems but remember the business that all the bars are in. I reckon E&G is lower down on the scale but Entrox's superb report shows a couple of cuties from there.
Check ID - all workers are happy to show you - do not say "I want to check your ID" just say in passing may I see your ID. Common sense. Thais are difficult to age - I met a lady in Jomtien and she looked 33/35 - she was 52!!! Many younger LB's look older so take care if not sure.
Personally I do not like Soi 6 nor 6/1 - I think it is bottom of the heap - Hi Boss the staff look scary and are pushy. The place looks bad. If you visit Stringfellows and Club 131 there is no comparison.
Didi's new bar which is the terrace outside Brauhaus on 2nd Road near Soi 8 is relaxed and a better bet. Stay South of Pattaya Klang (Central) where Soi 7 and 8 are and you are safer. I still plug Triple
X because I have had some real fun with the staff there - it is hit and miss.
So saying all of that IF we do NOT support the likes of E&G then they go west - not in our interest. I think many bar owners dabble in the LB scene and will only continue with good patronage - UP TO US! I have said before that some bars in Soi 6 have 1 or 2 LB's but the effort it takes - going in buying a drink and sitting it out outweighs the benefit.
