Fahrenheit underwent a major renovation in 2025 to modernize its interior and compete with newer venues. Walking Street prices are the highest in Pattaya: lady drinks start at 200 THB and go up to 250 THB for featured dancers, while bar fines range from 1,500 to 2,500 THB. Standard drink prices in regular bars are more reasonable, typically 100 to 200 THB. Beyond the bars, Walking Street also hosts some of Pattaya's best seafood restaurants, including several multi-story venues overlooking the pier, as well as rooftop lounges offering panoramic views of the bay.

Wear closed shoes — some upscale venues enforce dress codes. Compare prices at the entrance before committing to a GoGo bar. Don't feel pressured by touts; politely decline and keep walking.
