The go-go bar is Pattaya's headline act, and it lives on Walking Street — neon, AC, a stage of dancers, and the big production rooms (Sapphire, Windmill and the like). LK Metro runs a denser, more compact version (Topgun and neighbors). Stage show up front, hostesses to drink with, take-out by barfine.
It's pricier than the beer bars: beer 150~250฿, lady drinks on top, and a barfine of 500~1,000฿ to take a dancer out (short or long-time settled with her). Walking Street rooms cost more than LK Metro for the same idea. Prices are usually on the menu — check before you order a round.
This is a late show — Walking Street goes car-free at 19:00 and peaks 23:00~02:00, and Pattaya keeps running when Bangkok shuts. The 34 bars below are live-ranked by 7-day visitor traffic and recent reviews. Updated daily.
