Didn’t even know Sailor bar did fish n chips…..always known it as a cheap cocktails drinks place and seems to have stood the test of time with cheap prices.

Wonder if it’s BiB owned as not many left on soi 8 nowadays??

The way I understand its run (or was) by the Thai widow of a German guy who established it.

I walked past it for years without trying and then found the food really good - talking pre covid. of course

Tropical and Welcome Inn also if out there.

 

Been to both in the past and both score on price.....but don't rate with Outback on current form.......Outback gave up on those tasteless Haddock tails and switched to Cod.

Any fish in that batter? 555

Witherspoons is one of my favourite places to eat, but last week my portion of fish was about 60% batter.

Agreed, all batter. I hear you can request breadcrumbs so may do that next time as the staff is nice and I like going there. Ribs are re-heated, like every place I've tried here, so I avoid them too.

Swiss (same same but different). And I agree. Haven't tried fish and chips there, though. Great value on other things.

Seems highly unlikely.

The main man Simon exited other Retox branded interests and declared he was 'leaving the building'.

As posted earlier, his former manager Dean and some staff relocated to Witherspoon's on R-Con chicane.

Welcome Inn was good place for F&C and I have been to their new place by the lake for Sunday Roast, which was superb, so would reckon F&C will also be same as before. New place is nice and fresh.

I wonder whether the TVs etc are still there ?


Anyway, it would need a new owner/tenant/investor I think.

As stated before all retox long gone now and the popular manger Dean and his staff moved to Witherspoons on buakow and developed a large bar /restaurant there now.

Dont think anyone in their right mind will be investing and re opening a big bar in Pattaya anytime soon.

NICKIES by a mile

 

I wish they were.

They need to re-invent their FnC, give up on those tasteless Haddock tail end pieces and switch to Cod Loin, butterflyed same as W'spoons and Outback do.

The crinkle cut chips are OK, not sure where they're up to with the mushy peas.

I spoke to I presume Dean a couple of weeks ago, he mentioned that the chef at Witherspoons is the same chef previously at Retox.

Tried the Cod which was pretty good, tried the Haddock the following week which was really good. Note Fish & Chips is their Friday Special so it is slightly cheaper on that day.

I have yet to have a bad meal in Witherspoons.

Pictures below in order - Cod, Haddock, Cheesecake

Had the fish & chips from Whitherspoons on Friday, I asked for the fish to be breadcrumb instead of batter. Much better as the go overboard on the amount of batter for me.

Still called Welcome Inn, just before Fishermans Indian and after Billabong

Welcome Inn was always a favorite of mine on the Darkside.

Like so many others, especially for weekend football. 

Maybe some positive news soon.
