The Big Mango Bar, Bangkok

Over the next few months there will be a bit of a change at the Big Mango Bar that's just off Soi 4. They are looking into converting the upper floors into a hotel/hostel... the bar will remain the same - just few mods....

We have 5 floors (not 4 as stated in a wrong article by a fat proffessor) at the Big Mango and lots of room, so the plan is to turn some of the floors into Serviced Apartments and Hotel rooms.   We arrived at this idea due to all the inquiries we get from people walking in off the street and asking if we have accommodation.  We have plenty of hotels around us – which are always full, so there seems to be a market down the sub-soi. And what of the bar?   Changes are going to be there too.  I don’t know the details of the plans, but I do know that there will be a bit of construction on the the upper floors. If you wonder about the staff, then don’t.  They’ll remain.    The bar will close for a while for some major construction works to be carried out. Not too sure about the name just yet…. it’ll no longer be just a ‘bar’.   So… The Big Mango Bar now opens at 4pm. Free Wifi and also public laptop available inside. The Big Mango Bar

Nana Plaza Update (3-13)

Inside Nana Entertainment Plaza the Pretty Lady Bar took down their Nana Main Station because of complaints that it was so bright and that it was hurting people's eyes.  The sign was replaced with a red on black canvas sign which you can only read if you're standing right in front of it!  Compare that to the lovely new sign at Lollipop, right next door, which stands out all around the plaza.

Nana Liquid Disco, across the street on the ground floor of the Nana Hotel, remains closed.  It was reported last week that it had closed due to the strict enforcement of 2 AM closing on Soi Nana - which continues to be enforced.

Pretty Lady at Nana Plaza 2013

 The current Pretty Lady crew are a fun bunch and it is the attitudes of 

the girls and the general atmosphere of the bar that sets it apart.

 Pretty Lady Go-Go Bar features a floor-mounted wind machine which 
the DJ turns on without warning, causing the girls' skirts to be blown up.  

Shrieking and laughter follows as the girls quickly push their 

skimpy skirts back down to maintain their dignity.

Pretty Lady has such genuinely friendly girls, but more than anything, it's just good plain fun.  The 2013 version of Pretty Lady Bar on the ground level of Nana Plaza really does recapture the fun of the bars in the good old days!

Nana Entertainment Plaza by Peter

Nana Plaza is a four story complex of go go bars where you can have some beers, chat up some girls (expect to pay somewhere around 150 baht each for drinks for the ladies who you want to talk to), and pay the “bar fine” of somewhere around 600 baht (a little under $20 US) to the club to take the girl out.
That fee only gets the girl out of the bar though, so you’re going to have to negotiate any extra services with the girls before you pay the bar fine. The girls set their own prices, but 2000 baht to take her to your hotel room for an hour or two is pretty typical.

My real recommendation, if you’re in town for a while, is to hire one of the bar girls to be your tour guide to the local’s Bangkok on one of your first nights there, because that worked out amazingly well for me. No regular tour guide would have had me drinking beer and eating crickets by the river at 4am, but it was one of the highlights of my first trip to Thailand.

In Soi Cowboy the After Skool Bar is a place where you can get a bj while having a beer (so I’ve been told) and Cock-a-too is a ladyboy bar.
Baccara girls are the biggest hustlers on the block, but they’re also probably the most attractive, and you can see the most nudity there as well.
They have bikini clad girls on the main floor, but there’s a glass ceiling above you, and the girls dancing above you wear short skirts and no panties, so you can get quite a view if you don’t mind craning your neck and looking like a pervert.

Inside Mercury A-GoGo Club at Nana Plaza

Mercury Go-Go Club in Nana Plaza was full of girls, more than a few were very easy on the eyes. And Mercury now features a small shower stall towards the back of the bar where shower shows are performed.
Since its renovation, Mercury Bar has turned around and gone from a decrepit hole in a corner of Nana Plaza into a bar worth checking out.
Just don't be the first customer of the night; like a decent bottle of red, Mercury gets better as the night goes on.

Ladyboys at Cascades in Nana Plaza

At my third and last night in BKK, finally I had time to go to Cascades, but only at about 1 a.m. . The place was very quiet, oviously most of the girls were barfined, not many stunners there. I ordered one san miguel light 150 baht, and went to toilet. I was the only one there.. When I finished, some girls came in, and I took the chance for pictures.. and the more pictures I took, the more girls came in.. haha.. they enjoyed it, as much as I did..

Deaf Girls Hanging Out at Nana

Lately there have been 5 or 6 deaf girls hanging out at the Nana Hotel sign across the street from the entrance of Nana Plaza. I thought they were just checking out the scene, but this guy he tried to pick up one of them, thinking that a girl that can't talk might be cool, and he was given the price of 1,500 baht for short time. But he didn't get any further. They just keep on talking to each other with their hands.
I think they just want to have a group larger than their immediate group to hang out with and to feel a part of.
Or maybe they are just waiting for someone to invite them into Nana Plaza to see for themselves what its like.

The New Look of Nana Entertainment Plaza

The sign at Nana Plaza got repaired today. It appears that the delay in lighting it up was not a content issue, but rather an electrical situation of fixing the wiring.

Inside Nana Plaza the beer bars dominant the center part of the ground floor, with most of the go-go clubs on the ground floor also including beer bars outside their clubs in addition to the ones running down the middle.

The Lights of Nana Entertainment Plaza

Walked around Nana Plaza in Bangkok last night, checking out the signs, the people, the girls.

Saw part of the show at Angelwitch, and when the featured pole dancer JoJo did her routine, the place got excited. She really livens up the evening.

Also, the jacuzzi with the cute little nude Thai girls in only soap bubbles at Billboard will get the blood a-pumping, as was evident by some old geezer who tipped 1000 baht for all the girls in the tub to divide up as he did a little dance.

New Burger Mobile Outside Nana Plaza

The old burger cart located just outside Nana Plaza had been there for years. Left for a short time during the cleanup process of Nana Entertainment Plaza, and then she was able to return.

But now she has a brand new "Nana Burger Mobile" that can be packed up and driven off under its own power. The burger business must be doing good just outside Nana Plaza.

Please note that she raised her prices by 10 baht per burger to help pay for the burger mobile. Go and check it out and have a burger. Its the same burgers as before with the same girl operating it.
