Cherry Bar babes Pattaya, I have been studying them closely for over a decade. This bar on the corner of 2nd Rd & Soi 3 Pattaya has been my local watering hole since 2003.

And so this is Xmas

Sexy Cherry Bar babes Pattaya I have been living in Pattaya since October 2011 but I have been coming here for 34 years. Nothing stays the same & neither does the Cherry Bar, over the years there have been some incredibly beautiful girls pass through here. Sadly not as many in 2015. 🙂

Why do I like it so much?

Sexy Cherry Bar babes Pattaya Well apart from the many beautiful girls that have passed through there, being on a busy corner allows me to watch the passing parade while enjoying an evening drink. At the other end of this complex is another very good bar which has just become 50% larger, the Atlantic Bar.


View from The Cherry Bar

This was the view from where I sit about 3 years ago, it’s not quite as good now as you will see further on.

OK, back to the sexy girls

Flashback to 2003, the first year I started drinking at the Cherry Bar. One of the many sexy Cherry Bar girls.

  What a knockout smile.

Mai & Oay in 2012, terrific smiles

Sexy Cherry Bar babes Pattaya  Mai is a sweet girl who gave up her job a a Honda sales person in Bangkok to work at the Cherry Bar, she has since moved across the road to Honey 2, the soapy massage parlor. Oay on the other hand is a tall glamorous high maintenance girl who is never without a Farang throwing money at her.

Oay is certainly a knockout

Last I heard she found a sponsor and quit the bar scene.

 Joergen Ulitza, Barrie Comfort, Dah, Pothole aka John Martin & Pepe Lopez. Sadly Joergen was arrested in Hong Kong last year in July 2014 and is awaiting trial scheduled for November 2015.

All charges dropped

 On November 6th all charges were dropped and Joergen flew to Pattaya for a couple of weeks before heading home to Melbourne on December 10. He is a very lucky man.

 The bar has always been a great place to meet friends from Australia, this is from February 2004, Daryl on the left now lives in Pattaya at Markland where I also live.

July 2003 , Jan became my favourite girl.

 Over the next seven years Jan was my number one favourite girl, so beautiful with a smile to die for. When I talk about Sexy Cherry Bar girls, Jan was the best.

Easy to see why

Another favourite pastime. photo IMG_0624.jpg

Absolutely gorgeous.

Do you agree Jan is absolutely beautiful?

David Herd at Cherry Bar  

This was November 2008, I could publish an entire post on Jan but I guess I have to move along.

Jan visits Cherry in 2012 pregnant with 3rd child.

I’m betting raising 3 children is not as much fun as working at the Cherry bar. 🙂

Anne & Om in October 2011. Sadly about 1 year later Om passed away after a short illness, I really miss her smiling face.

RIP Om.

I wanted to hang this on the wall at the Cherry bar in memory of Om, but because of Thai tradition & culture they would not let me.

Dressing up for Loi Krathong

Loi Krathong  

Loi Krathong is a festival celebrated annually throughout Thailand and certain parts of Laos and Burma (in Shan State). The name could be translated as “to float a basket”, and comes from the tradition of making krathong or buoyant, decorated baskets, which are then floated on a river. Loi Krathong takes place on the evening of the full moon of the 12th month in the traditional Thai lunar calendar. In the western calendar this usually falls in November. On the night of the full moon, Thais launch their krathong on a river, canal or a pond, making a wish as they do so. The festival may originate from an ancient ritual paying respect to the water spirits.   Government offices, corporations and other organizations bring large decorated krathongs. There are competitions for the best such krathong. A beauty contest is a regular feature and fireworks have become common in recent years.

Street cooking at its best

Sexy Cherry Bar babes Pattaya 

For six months or s these guys were doing a roaring trade cooking pigs before the chemist under the Cherry Bar complained to the police about the shop fling up with smoke every night.

In January 2013 four English friends from Wiltshire arrived and took over the Cherry bar, I would usually leave them about 10 pm and they would kick on to 2 or 3 am at the sexy Cherry Bar.

Aoy is another favourite of mine.

Aoy is a very sweet girl who left the Cherry Bar when she found a guy to take care of her, I miss her & wish her luck.

 The green roof is the Cherry bar.

Not much to look at, but thousands of great memories have happened under that green roof. 🙂

Bath time in Soi 3

While Grandfather does the cooking the little one decides it is time for her bath. A great example of observing Thai life from the Cherry Bar.

I ordered a double Jack Daniels.

 Is it wrong to force your lovely niece to be a pole dancer in Pattaya, surely not? 🙂  I guess my niece can now be described as one of the Sexy Cherry Bar girls.

 Larry Krausz moves from the Gold Coast Australia to Pattaya November 28 2015.  Sadly one year later in December 2016 after spending 6 weeks in ICU due to a major stroke, he was flown back to Australia by the insurance company. The cost for the Leer Jet was $185,000 aud and the hospital over $300,000.

New friends December 28 2015

On the right is Jeff who is a friend of my cousin Vickie in Calgary, the other guy James saw me outside my condo in soi 1 and said “hi David” I know you from your Cape Town blog. Amazing that he recognised me in the street, so I now have another new friend, James from Pretoria. My fame is obviously spreading. 🙂

And the beat goes on

Shock horror

Shock horror, September 1st 2016 and my beloved Cherry bar is no more. Purchased by the people who own Billabong in LK Metro they will rebuild a bigger and hopefully better bar. You can take away the bar but you will never be able to take away my wonderful memories.

Shock horror has turned into “you bloody beauty”. 🙂

Thanks for visiting my Sexy Cherry Bar babes Pattaya photo blog.

Author: David Herd

My history, particularly over the last 30 years is dominated by overseas travel. I sold my home in Australia October 20th 2011 and have have been living in Thailand since then. I don’t know where the time has gone? It seems like you go to sleep one night, wake up the next morning, and 20 years have flashed by. Not sure how many years I have left, however I have enjoyed a wonderful charmed life, and if it all ended today I would leave this world with no regrets. I was born in Sydney halfway through the last century, started my travels in the 60s with the usual U.K. Europe adventure at the age of 20, back to Australia and worked in Sydney, Melbourne & Adelaide in Sales & Marketing with multinational companies including Sanyo, Canon & Remington. Engaged to be married 3 times and never quite made it to the alter, finally realized by the mid 90s I was not cut out for "long term relationships" so I moved to the Gold Coast in Queensland in January 1987, worked for a couple of banks as a Financial Planner, I took a year off work in 1998 to travel and never went back to full time work again, after 25 fun filled years on the Coast I packed up and moved to Thailand. What is the purpose of this blog? Well I really want to use it to record my travel experiences & to display my photographs, give and receive travel tips, comment on places I visit, restaurants I eat in and use it to replace the autobiography I intended to write, apart from all that it helps me fill in my day. :) I moved to Thailand mainly because I wanted to keep travelling while my health allowed me to, there are huge advantages being closer to all the places I want to visit. Cost of living in Thailand is around 35% of the cost in Australia, plus flights are 50% cheaper because you are much closer to everywhere. ???? Consequently I am able to travel to many more places compared to living in Australia. Having said all that, it is & has always been my intention to return to Australia when my travelling is finished, I predict this will happen around 2021.
