Opium, a smaller and more intimate go-go bar on Walking Street, offers a refreshing change of pace compared to its larger counterpart, XS, which shares the same owner. With a lineup of 30 girls, including 12 notable standouts, Opium focuses on quality over quantity, creating a more personal and relaxed environment for patrons. The bar features a single stage and a few VIP seating spots, making it easier to enjoy the performances up close without the crowds typical of bigger venues.
The pricing system for lady drinks follows the same tiered approach as XS, with PR girls priced at 200 baht and models at 250 baht. This essentially means you pay more for what would be considered a standard high-quality girl in Bangkok, while the regular girls are priced lower. Despite this, drink prices for patrons remain consistent and reasonable, with beers at 150 baht, mixed drinks at 160 baht, and soft drinks at 140 baht.
Unlike its larger sibling, Opium is much easier to navigate, with a more relaxed vibe and ample seating even on busier nights. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to avoid the hustle and bustle while still enjoying a solid selection of girls and a more intimate atmosphere. Opium delivers a polished and enjoyable experience, offering the charm of a smaller venue with the quality you’d expect from one of Pattaya’s premier nightlife spots.
