scubamatt · #2 01-04-2005, 13:42

No.
Tiny place. No food. Lots of beer though.

stevem · #3 01-04-2005, 19:53

No, nothing to do with the well known chain.

plahgat · #4 01-04-2005, 20:11

You will find the real one in Pattaya on beachroad with Hotel and pool!

Nicke · #5 01-04-2005, 21:11

There were rumours they were going to build a real Hard Rock Cafe on the beach road (When Paradise bar closed 15 months ago), but havent heard anything since then.

Petter · #6 01-04-2005, 23:19

"Paradise bar closed 15 months ago"

Nicke do you now why the owner of the Paradise bar shut down,as i can remember it was one of the best going bars outside Bangla for many years.
It was a real nice place just too sit and watch the sunset with a cold one.
And it was always packed with people.

Now they are selling sunglases and stuff like that where the bar was.

If it was shut down because of the high rent from the owners of the land as i was told by one of the girls at Dolphin bar who used too work at Paradise.

How do they earn more money now ?

It would be the perfect place too set up a bar.

The Hard Rock Cafe I've visited when I was in BKK was in SIAM SQUARE, down the street from NOVATEL HOTEL " club CM2 " is a great bar you can eat american burgers and drink. Later in the night around 10pm - 12pm lots COOL and pretty chicks come. Most are working girls but lots are just girls going out at night. I met girls there everytime I visited. One girl I hooked up was working at a bank, she gave me her home number and business card and her sweet pie as well

. Very easy to meet pretty girls there and I can recalled many incidents that It was so hard to decide which girl I should talk to. It was kinda early around 930pm when I came in and sat across the bar and was drinking by myself. As I looked across the bar I was sitting at, I noticed a sweet pretty girl also sitting solo. So I smiled at her and we established eye contact, I told the bartender to ask her what she would like to drink. She kindly smiled at me with that shyness and got her drink. I stepped up and was on my way to walk across the bar to talk to her then all of the sudden another PRETTY girl block my way and gave me a GORGEOUS smile ( outrageous body with bright white teeth ) ! I'm in shocked with her beauty and didn't know what to do but grabbed her hand and took her out of the bar with me. As we passed the 1st girl, I felt so bad ! As I and the new girl passed by the orginal girl who was sitting there waiting for me to come over, she looked so sad. I still feel bad for what I did but hell with it I'm BKK and anything goes ! I'm 29 yrs old asian american , muscular and don't have a problem with dating. I have been with many white / latin / italian and asian girls in the states and considered myself a good looking asian dude. But I definately don't think you have to be a pretty boy to get with laid at the hard rock cafe there

Good luck and party on !

louiswhitehouse · #10 23-04-2005, 22:21

the real one is in pattaya, on beach road, north pattaya area and its very good just what you would expect from a hard rock and the hotel is very nice to i spent 2 nights in there good music too.

mayuree · #11 25-04-2005, 17:20

Yes, CM2 Is the right place for someone who's don't want to go back home. cos, it's hard to find other place after 01.00 am.
So, who's the big rock of hard rock cafe should to go there.

Hv a nice time and take care.
Mayuree.

Regards

Drew

Nicke · #13 27-02-2009, 05:27

Not open yet, but it seems to be a big venue, and the guitar outside is huge.

Will be interesting to see the outcome of it...

Hobbsy · #14 27-02-2009, 10:48

its looked 'nearly ready' far ages.

i thought they would be open by now but it seems to have stalled.

Mai Chob · #15 27-02-2009, 11:33

Yep, looks real ready to me, but still not opened and no preopening marketing that Im aware of...for those who want to know where, its on Ratty Tits road, opposite O (s)Top ! shopping market, so not on the Beach nor in the thick of things.
I like the one in Kuta , Bali for its design and fantastic pool with beaches and islands, but they arent cheap obviously.

DREW · #16 27-02-2009, 13:08

They always seems to employee cute women, the on in the Florida Keys at Key West in the US was like Hooters

It says on their website that the HRC in Patong opens in March 2009!
Hard Rock Cafe PHUKET - HOME

I hope it is open when I arrive in town!

Mai Chob · #19 01-03-2009, 09:27

Even with all the clout of the Marriot and The Hard Rock, they cant seem to get rid of those ugly wires....

DREW · #20 01-03-2009, 18:41

I suppose Coyote Mexican on the beach will lose a bit of custom once it opens.

Regards

Drew

DREW · #21 28-03-2009, 17:30

Hi

Is it open yet anyone?

Their website say March 09 for opening so looks like things may be behind schedule as I have not seen any job adds in the Phuket Gazette

Regards

Drew

landofsmiles · #22 28-03-2009, 17:41

Read somewhere another couple of months yet.

Mr Swede · #23 29-03-2009, 06:37

What other bars or restaurants have live rockbands? Is there any in Patong, Karon or kata?

Rock City Rock City, Phuket, Thailand

Mai Chob · #25 30-03-2009, 02:03

They seem to be dying a slow death ( Tarzans the only BM I can think of that deserves something quicker...555).
Saxophone went, Rio muddles along with the same old and expensive drinks, a coupla bars on the left in Soi Sea Dragon, the same 2 grand palces whatever theyre called in the open air on Beach road....
In short, Patongs very short in this area given the tourist base...

Mr Swede · #26 31-03-2009, 19:52

Rock city in Phuket looks like a really nice place! Is is live bands every night?

Suikku · #27 31-03-2009, 23:46

I'm not shure if they have livebands every night but everytime i've been there they had a live band. Or actually it's the same band playing all night with various singers. They play very loud and beer and drinks are too expensive, still it's my favourite place in Patong. And the new location is awsome, only 2 minutes from SB hotel. Can't wait to get there on sunday.

Mr Swede · #28 01-04-2009, 05:06

Maybe me and BM Joker66 will be there on sunday we arrive in the afternoon on sunday. We will definetly be there next week!

Loud Rock music and beer in Thailand! Now where talking!! Is there girls there allso?

nelsonone · #29 01-04-2009, 05:21

so when does the actual "Hard Rock" restaurant on Raty open...or has it already???

landofsmiles · #30 01-04-2009, 08:30

See post #22.

Crazy_Matt · #31 01-04-2009, 08:47

Yeah, it seems that working girls usually do not demand the best looking faces or bodies. They are more interested in what's in the back pocket.

Hard Rock Cafe seems so cliche at this point. Is there a bigger tourist attraction?
