    Great for those who want to have an interesting time. A huge number of go-go clubs, restaurants, live music, barkers and ping-pong shows. We went to ping pong, that's it. 10 minutes before the start, 4 girls came out and could barely move on stage; during the show, girls were constantly walking around with a box and asking for more money. The show is cyclical, if you see a number that has already been seen, then you can leave.

    I don't know why this is not the main attraction in Pattaya. It seems to me that everyone has heard about this street. Street of freedom and relaxation. Real relaxation without thoughts of problems. Come, get drunk (or don’t get drunk), walk, walk, relax your brain, watch the traffic, attend the show, because you were on this street and you should have memories.

    Good times!
    Walked around and checked out some of the places with bands and other venues for entertainment. A lot of things to see and do. Very highly recommend a place called Ice box, nothing beats a walk in freezer on a hot day!

    fun!
    Here for the Songkran festival or Thai New Year - a lot of water and a good bit of fun too. Everyone was in high spirits and the atmosphere from young and old alike was electric. Many bars, strip joints, fast food outlets and lots more! Street is quite long, much longer than I expected .....and I didnt even manage to finish it!

    One of Pattaya’s ‘must visits’
    Did you really visit Pattaya if you didn’t visit Walking Street? It has something for everyone. Plenty of places to drink, eat, dance, meet ladies, watch shows. Some of the vendors were quite aggressive, as were some of the ladies. Beware buying Lady Drinks in the bars - they can be very expensive. We were a big group & we weren’t interested in the live shows or the go go bars. We wanted to drink & dance. Certainly a very lively night. We were very surprised by the number of families with little kids, wandering along Walking Street.. Worth a visit, but don’t bring your kids..

    What about that famous street. I think it's part of pattaya's nightlife. We crossed it once and these women were smiling and very kind to our children after behind what some tourist (man) will see to do there is another story... Personally as a woman their conditions touched me

The street is not what it used to be pre covid with lot of bars and clubs now closed and places up for rent. Still this is the best what Pattaya has to offer in terms of nightlife. Earlier most of the go go bars had free entry but now almost all of them charge an entry fee which is a bit of bummer especially not knowing the quality of girls inside. Still if you are in Pattaya it is a must visit place

If only girls are going, go in a big group to enjoy the full experience. Be aware if you go into one of the sex clubs be prepared for you to enjoy the show less and but have your hand in your pocket as money will be extracted fromYou. One if the waiters had broken a glass and she went to the gentle man and said you have to pay for the glass. Walking street in general had a good vibe we went on a thursday night. Ended in one club which was good.

Seems like pattaya is full of Indians and Russians.

I can tell you that this is the only place where life flows fast. I have been living in Pattaya for almost 2 years. This place literally calls people with its nightlife and neon lights. I will introduce you to a gogo bar that you do not know, its name is (windmill gogo bar club). It is in the top 3 among such places in Pattaya. There is a business. There are two places with the same name, both of them are owned by the same owner. There are 2 different complexes inside. One is downstairs, the other is upstairs. Here the girls are completely naked, but the business is in the hands of the mamabasans. On one side, the mamabasans who behave kindly are on the other side, they are very rude inside. Drinks are 99 baths. If you invite a girl to the table. 260thb and every half hour they can bring new drinks to this bill and increase it. Only the draft price of this place is 99thb, bottled beer is 180thb, see this place where everything is free, taking pictures inside is forbidden, if you do this, you may be fired and beaten, they will instantly delete the images from your camera. Mamabasans think they are the boss, they won't let you breathe, they drink all the time. If you drink, you can sit here. The most important thing is that you should invite one or more of the girls to come with you. Lady drink is 260thb and is renewed every half hour.

This is the most fun tourist street in the world. She's really big. A huge number of clubs, bars, coffee shops, striptease establishments - for every taste and color. There are restaurants with seafood, doner kebab. There are many more establishments here than on similar streets in Ayia Napa or the Spanish Islands.
It's better to come on Friday or Saturday evening, all establishments are 100% open. Lots of bright signs, different music.
I visited 3 nightclubs - Janaat (Diwali was celebrated here), Leela, Lucifer. Everywhere admission is free, they serve good cocktails, not watered down. The waiters themselves come up to take your order; you don’t have to wait long at the bar. The service is excellent, the music too. Cash and cards are accepted for payment. The clubs are really big inside, you can dance and sit comfortably.
For fans, there are strip clubs with Russian and Indian girls, I don’t know what’s inside, I didn’t go.

Even as a couple, you will be accosted by aggressive touts every step of you way along this seedy street, and shown the same laminated card of simulated sacks. All touts lead to the same club that we ended up going. Show was a farce. The audience was a mix of couples like us and groups of single men. Our "free drinks" were brought to us with demands to pay a service fee. The 'sacks show' did not include any sacks. A few disinterested girls performed party tricks with balloons, ping pong balls and razor blades. During the show staff continued to harassed all clients for tips by going around with a bucket. We waited but nothing much happened. After a period of bored girls jiggling around poles the show started all over again. It's all waste of money and time.

I have known Walking Street for 50 years (although it wasn't called that back then).
Last visited in February 23. Now I notice that the Russians are increasingly taking over. In front of at least 9-10 A-Go-Go bars and establishments there are no longer young, pretty Thai girls, but strong, scary men in black suits and ties. In front of an Indian club I counted 26 security guards, also in black. How does that give you a Thai feeling?
The "scene" is increasingly moving to Soi Bukhao and side streets, at least as long as Russians, Indians and Chinese don't take over the businesses there too.
But the government in Thailand doesn't seem to care, no matter where it comes from, the money has to come in. It will have a negative impact in the long term, it's only a matter of time.

If you came here 15 ,10 or even 5 years ago you are not for a disappointment ,newbies won’t know the difference ,however for the ones that came here years ago Covid definitely gave a massive hit in odd ways to talking street .

The vibe just ain’t the same as it used to be ,freelancers walking around was basically none ,the nightlife is in full swing no doubt ,more nightclubs more lights more shows etc however the vibe overall you feel that it ain’t the same as it used to be ,probably could see more tourists than girls which was rather odd .

Didn’t felt the same didn’t enjoyed like I used to ,there was no loud welcome there wa no hand pushing from the girls to walk in pubs and bars and shows there was no walking street as it used to be for me and when you talk with businesses that were there before ( talked with a couple of restaurant owners ) it was most definitely covid

Yes you will see reviews here saying that it’s a loud crazy street etc and it is … if you just landed in Pattaya for the first time ,for the oldies … that ain’t só and you will see what I mean ..

Truly hoping that it gets back one day the beautiful vibe that walking street once has and dare I say Pattaya as a whole …

For the time being I probably would give it a miss for the next few years until it gets hopefully back the lost beautiful vibe that it once had

Pattaya Walking Street is infamous. It is THE place to go, if that's the kind of infamy you seek. I hadn't been for a couple of years, so took a stroll from Jomtien Beach where I was staying to WS. Overall, just as seedy, just as crowded in the early afternoon, only now, populated by a plethora of Indian Restaurants. Hundreds of them, resembling a minor state of Bombay. Along with the Russians and Chinese, the place was very different to my last visit, when it was just seedy and normals, almost. Not for me, I won't be back.

Its a crazy place, we were there early in the evening but there was so much going on. Music and loud sounds everywhere. Pretty girls trying to persuade you to go into their bars. Guys looking for girls and lots of tourists.

There were kick boxers, street performers, bars, reasonably priced food chaos but great fun.

A woman kept trying to persuade us to go the the Ping Pong Bar. Eventually we went but it was horrible and I dont recommend it. I can't go into details here.

Apart from that we had a great time and I recommend Walking Street for tourists and of course for men looking for female company.
