Players

A former Booze Lounge on Soi Buakhao

Players is a historical record for the Soi Buakhao Player’s Lounge. A Pattaya Addicts post from September 2015 reported that the local Booze Lounge was displaying a Player’s Lounge sign. A June 2016 first-hand visit report confirms the venue was operating from the former Booze Lounge site, which had previously been an internet café.

The reports paint a straightforward sports-bar picture rather than a landmark nightlife attraction. The 2016 visit describes air-conditioned indoor seating, a terrace, familiar rock music and a free pool table where players wrote their names on a board. A 2015 discussion similarly called it a normal pub that was good for sport. There was a mention of a Chinese takeaway offer later that year, but that was a short-lived, date-specific observation rather than a current food recommendation.

Historical details, not current promises

The 2016 report recorded a low beer price, weekly pool activity and daytime opening, but all of those details are now old. No current operator-owned page, menu or schedule was located for this exact Soi Buakhao record. Treat the name as a clue for old photos or accounts, not proof that the business is still open.

Recommendation

Players is useful for former regulars trying to place the Player’s Lounge name on Soi Buakhao. Skip it as a destination for a present-day drink, sport fixture or pool session unless a current listing is found first. A traveller wanting a reliable game of pool should instead choose a venue with a live timetable and current contact details.
