Good service and atmosphere. Funnily enough, I've never been there late, usually I go in the afternoon before getting into serious drinking !<ul><li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 4   <img STYLE="border:none" SRC="http://www.durianseed.com/wp-content/images/stars40disp.gif"></li> </ul> Although not on my normal run, I usually stop in for a beer or five.

If you're into pool, this is a decent place to have a go. The menu is extensive, but as mentioned before, can seem a bit pricey considering the quality of fare.<ul><li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 3   <img STYLE="border:none" SRC="http://www.durianseed.com/wp-content/images/stars30disp.gif"></li> </ul> A great place to meet friends from out of town as the Western feel often provides comfort to newly arrived Westerners.

Loads of screens, an extensive thai/western food menu, and tonnes of drinks. From the outside you dont realise how big and deep the place is, and it houses a load of pool tables. Saying that, the place just seems a tad sterile and they tried to pull my friends pants down on there vodka measures, and when we complained they got shirty. This will make no difference to anyone as the place is usually rammed come kick off, but I tend to avoid it if I can, unless Im meeting a friend there as its a good meeting point<ul><li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 3   <img STYLE="border:none" SRC="http://www.durianseed.com/wp-content/images/stars30disp.gif"></li> </ul> For chilling out to watch the football I dont think theres a better place in Bangkok.

In addition to the massive interior, there is a large outdoor patio in the front where you can relax with friends and enjoy the warm Bangkok evenings. Good quality pool tables in the back, and always crowded with both expats & holiday-makers, it's comfortable for singles and couples. If you are single and looking to find companionship you will usually find another single at Gullivers who will be looking for you too. The location in the center of Soi 5 puts you right in the midst of an entire night life area that can be reached on foot in just a few minutes in any direction.

The layout is massive with about a half dozen or so pool tables, plenty of seating, a decent food and beverage selection, and TVs everywhere for your viewing pleasure. They attract couples and singles looking to have a good time. You can always get a good game of challenge pool here. The menu is extensive but a little pricey for the quality, but not bad. Other nits include a terrible sound system and the drinks are nothing special. The service is pretty good although slow at times. They do have free Internet terminals and run a pretty tight ship so nice safe environment to chill out at see what happens.<ul><li><label>Overall Rating</label>: 4   <img STYLE="border:none" SRC="http://www.durianseed.com/wp-content/images/stars40disp.gif"></li> </ul> A Hard Rock Cafe type of place with a cool Classic Car spinning slowly above the bar inside, Gulliver’s is a huge sports bar offering just about everything.
