Bull's Head Pub

The popular Bull's Head Pub is very British and a good place for serious beer drinkers. There are also lots of activities to keep you entertained, including monthly Pub Quiz Night and disco night. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming....the Bull's Head's clientele are open minded, fun loving and non-intimidating. Perhaps that's why you will regularly see patrons dancing or riding around the bar on each others' shoulders.

ReWind bar

There is something reassuring about finding a bar that is cool for the youngsters hanging out there, and in which you at the same time do not feel uncomfortable or out of place, no matter you are twice the age of the very cute waitresses and other youngsters.

The room is nicely laid out with cool sixties-style sofas and seating, chill out lighting and low tables to hang over as you chat against the music. But it really not a problem as they have a very fine music system and have done a nice job compensating for the potentially bad acoustics by dressing the walls and ceilings to dampen any excessive treble. We visiting musos were very impressed and Her Ladyship and her friends never gave up a minute of chat the whole time we were there, while me and the boys were rocking it out to Sweet and Slade and Elton!

It is a very welcoming place and the staff were great, giving us the star treatment the whole time, and we were paying standard cityholic rates for beer, whisky and snacks, with no tut-tutting when the bill came at 2 am a few hundred baht each using the American Share system for quite a skinful when all is said and done.

Spice Club

The name Spice Club may suggest hot and sweaty but that is not entirely the case here, primarily because there are two seating areas. The main area gives the energetic party animal the opportunity to get to the centre of the club where lies, the majority of the crowd. This gives you front row seats to the large stage, that is home to the regular live bands and daily coyote girls.

The club DJ booth is in the centre of the room. The play list is predominantly the latest club mixes and hip hop tunes and party normally goes on until dawn The other area is for the more relaxed clubber where there is an array of soft stools and chairs so that you can sit comfortably, hold a conversation and have a hassle freedrink. However be warned that towards the end some nights the club can get a little rowdy. Needless to say this is because of excessive alcohol consumption by a few of the late night drinkers who occasionally uses those comfortable seats and transforms them into their own personal dancing pedestals: when that happens, either you'll have to join in, or your hassle-free drink may end as part of the decor!
