About
Tigglebitties Tavern is a pirate-themed open-air sports bar, restaurant and small guesthouse on Soi 17 off Pattaya Third Road, at the South Pattaya edge of Pratumnak. It has a strong expat following for its breakfasts, its fair-priced menu and the fact that it does the simple things — cold beer, live sport, easy parking — well.
What to order
Big cooked breakfasts are the signature, backed by international pub food, burgers and a good range of Mexican plates. Prices sit comfortably below the flashier tourist restaurants.

Detailed facts, cautions, facilities & reviews
Full overview
Tigglebitties Tavern is a long-running, pirate-themed open-air sports bar and restaurant on Soi 17 off Pattaya Third Road, at the South Pattaya end of the road up to Pratumnak Hill. It has built a loyal expat following by being three useful things at once: a proper breakfast stop, an all-day tavern with cold beer and enough screens to catch the football or rugby from most seats, and a small guesthouse for those who want to stay above the bar. The kitchen is the real draw — it is best known for big cooked breakfasts, but the menu roams across international pub food, burgers and a solid line in Mexican dishes, at fair prices that undercut the flashier tourist spots. The open-air, family-friendly layout and easy on-site parking (a genuine rarity in Pattaya) set it apart from the cramped beer bars nearer the beach, and the atmosphere leans convivial-regulars rather than rowdy-nightlife. Two things to keep in mind: the kitchen keeps daytime hours and tends to wind down in the late afternoon even though the bar carries on, and despite the tavern name this is more a food-and-sport pub than a late-night drinking den. For a relaxed breakfast, a lazy afternoon of sport, or a cheap Mexican plate with a beer, it is a dependable, good-value pick just off the tourist strip.
