“ If you’re looking for an inexpensive American breakfast on Koh Chang, this is the place. There are lots of options, including a basic 99 baht special with 2 eggs, bacon, sausage, baked beans, tomato, toast, and coffee or tea. They also have a full English breakfast on the menu. The breakfast special was really good, and the coffee okay. I was actually quite impressed by the real sausage, not the hot dogs they call sausage practically everywhere else in Thailand. The bacon was not fatty at all. The three egg omelette was good, and my wife said by the looks of my breakfast, she should have ordered the same thing. One thing to keep in mind here is that smoking is okay, unfortunately. You may have to put up with a person or two who doesn’t mind smoking while you eat. If you want a good breakfast that isn’t going to break the bank, it’s worth a bit of potential annoyance, and is well worth stopping. ”
“ I was looking for some 'falang' food and saw this place just down from the White Sand beach area. A typical sports bar with sports on the big screen. Plenty of imported beers here as well as the usual cocktails, spirits and wines. The food is European and Thai. I had this beef on a crusty roll dish and it was amazing. They have ours and peas, pizza, steak and plenty of Thai dishes as well. They have an aircon section if its hot day. Staff are friendly and attentive. Great if you are with a group of friends as they have large tables. ”
“ The bar has great food. I tried a special of bacon wrapped sausage with mashed potato and gravy. Delicious and only 149bt. The bad news is a Guinness draught is 249bt. Good pub atmosphere and many kinds of beer for when you're sick of Chang, Leo and Singha. ”
“ Definitely a proper good sports bar. They have about 6 screens and telecast a variety of games. I was there for a Liverpool game and they played it on two different screens. Really good vibe. Good people. The staff and owner are really helpful and kind. Drinks aren't insanely expensive and are aptly priced. They have some good ciders and draft beers too. I didn't order any food but looked like they had a good menu. Really loved every second at the bar. Definitely a must visit, especially for sports and football fans! ”
“ This restaurant has a great selection of beers from all over the world! Food was also very surprisingly good! Had dinner with beer and was very satisfied. The waiter speaks good English and got nothing to complain about. I only had thai-chinese food, but I will definitely try German food next time. FYI, this place is run by a German owner! ”
“ Came for the Sunday Roast, and it transported me home ???????????????????????????????? less than 300 baht for a 3 course meal, including all you can eat Sunday roast. The meat was better than some pubs back in England! Roast potatoes were as close as it gets. Also they have draught beers and ciders, and a pool table. And a lot of TVs with various sports. Safe to say, it almost very nearly felt like home ”
“ A nice bar/restaurant centrally located on the island. I didn't stay overnight, but stopped by for lunch before the ferry back to the mainland. Plenty of space, friendly staff, and a good selection of food, beer, and other drinks. Parking is available on the street in front of the building. ”
“ A go-to spot for watching sport on the island.. really nice to get a change of pace with some Guinness & Beef pies or any number of other hearty dishes. Kind staffs, nice ambiance, can recommend ”
