A former name on Soi Chaiyapoon
The Purple was a bar at 383/83 Soi Chaiyapoon in Central Pattaya. This road is also called Chalermphrakiat 25 and is widely known as Soi Pothole. CheersPattaya now lists the same address as Jub Jub Bar and explicitly says it was formerly The Purple Bar. A Pattaya Forum entry from 2025 independently places Jub Jub Bar at 383/83, confirming the later venue and location.
What the record supports
The evidence supports a name change at the same small-bar site, not a separate currently operating Purple venue. The Jub Jub listing calls it a bar on Soi Pothole and records pool tables. It does not give a food menu, drinks list, entertainment programme or a reliable timetable, so those details should be checked on the day rather than inferred from either name.
Current status needs a direct check
The page preserves The Purple because older map data and searches may still use that name. For a visit, use the 383/83 address and expect the current sign to be Jub Jub Bar according to the opened listing. Check its linked Facebook page or ask locally if opening hours, events or a particular pool table are important.
Practical recommendation
Treat this as a location and name-history record for the Soi Chaiyapoon bar area. It is useful when an older recommendation names The Purple, but it is not a review of a confirmed current business under that name. Visitors wanting a venue with verified hours should choose a directory entry with a current published schedule.

Frequently asked questions
Where was The Purple in Pattaya?
The Purple was at 383/83 Soi Chaiyapoon, also known as Chalermphrakiat 25 or Soi Pothole, in Central Pattaya. The successor listing and a 2025 Pattaya forum entry independently give the same address for Jub Jub Bar.
Is The Purple Bar still open?
The opened CheersPattaya listing calls the venue Jub Jub Bar and describes it as formerly The Purple Bar. That supports a name change rather than a separately confirmed current Purple venue. Check the linked Facebook page or the address directly for its present status.
What was listed at the former Purple Bar site?
The current Jub Jub Bar listing identifies a bar on Soi Pothole with pool tables and gives the 383/83 address. It does not publish an opening timetable, drink list or a detailed description, so those details should not be assumed from the former name.
