Pattaya Beach Road fast food
January 26, 2018by David Herd
Building the Bay beside Soi 6
Pattaya Beach Road fast food
Pattaya Beach Road fast food at the newly developed Bay shopping complex. Popular at night for live music & cold beer. Starbucks is one of my regular beach haunts.
From my condo.
Taken from my condo at Markland in Soi 1, just a short walk to the Bay.
Right opposite the beach.
So glad they preserved this magnificent tree in front of the shops.
It’s finally finished.
The finished product sits between Soi 5 & Soi 6, you can clearly see the North Shore condo building in Soi 5.
Of course Soi 6 is the wildest street in Pattaya, at night it really goes mad. To see what I mean just follow THIS LINK.
First tennants
Starbucks & McDonald’s were the first, who would have guessed. 🙂 Now Boots chemist are there & soon a large Korean shop will open.
I’m a regular at Starbucks for breakfast, here you can see the lovely Starbucks girls presenting me with a croissant & candle on my birthday.
Beergarden
Nothings happens here through the day however it fires up when the sun goes down.
Here they come.
Customers start to arrive, plenty of cold beer here to keep everybody happy.
Pattaya Beach Road fast food
Reminds me a little of the “pop up” Yatai restaurants in Fukuoka.
This post highlights the interesting things I see on Beach Road every day, just follow THIS LINK.
Solo artist.
This guy was very good so I hung around for while to hear him play. It’s only a five minute walk home for me.
Maccas at the Bay
Great location opposite the beach.
New restaurant bar.
This will be a popular spot to watch the sunsets.
Chill at the Bay
Large outdoor area plus two floors inside.
Lets hope the blonde will be there. 🙂
Right now she is heading for Starbucks.
Coming soon
Now this will be a very welcome addition.
Very quiet during the Covid-19 crisis
Many Pattaya businesses are devastated now in February 2020.
It will take years to recover
At least Starbucks is still here, I am there most mornings.
Thanks for visiting my Pattaya Beach Road fast food photo blog.
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.
