The Marquee was quite popular pre Covid........ Once every month on a Wednesday I sit parked opposite the Marquee from about 2.50 - 3.30pm whilst my wife Sai is in the dentist. I am sure that the same 2 and sometimes 3 customers are the same ones sitting there every time. I never felt the urge to join them as they look so sad and anyway I don't do afternoon drinking. So I listen to fabulous103fm instead. 😀 Edited September 8, 2020 by Jambo 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteregg Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but the live music venue between Bliss and Rich on Walking St has taken down all the signage and looks like it’s empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned before I'd been in since it reopened and they'd made some structural changes at the front and side. These spoiled it for me and possibly for others (and their beer was also more expensive than similar places a few yards away). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydeste Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) @roobob @rhodie Thanks. For some reason I expected a bit more shelf life than that, just checked my London Pride and London Porter bottles, they look to have a year on them too! I guess that must be fairly standard for bottled beers all over then. Edited September 8, 2020 by boydeste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I passed by on Sunday afternoons, the bar was almost always full. Regulars told me the Sunday dinners sold out by 6 or 7 p.m. The Marquee had a loyal ex-pat customer base and if it is struggling now, I can imagine what it's like for less popular bars.

Blue Streak Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 A few bits and pieces about town the past few days....I think this is the place Khun Egg was on about, the music venue, not sure if it ever reopened... And across the other side of ''Parking Street'' you have this..... Another one of Khun Eggs updates at the bottom of Soi Diamond, the former ''Moon Club'' and restaurant is now..... Into L K Metro...some day and night snaps...... Bread run this morning....Bye bye...... Half the size is that ''Boom'' now...... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that must be fairly standard for bottled beers all over then. I don't think they last too long in this heat, if not stored well. Got a few older ones when the bars re-opened here and I could taste the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booked myself into Sutus Ct Hotel, very close to Soi B, for a couple of nights next week. Enjoyed my last visit. Nice room with parking and just 590 baht a night. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Boom used to be on the other side of Buakhaow, down the street beside what was Rich Bar, before it moved to Boomerang. Unless it's changed, be very careful about the "ladies" you find there. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
