Bar 305/Fortune Bistro

Is it still same location? i.e where Smiling Frog bar used to be? Last few pictures make it look like a different location unless it's just the side street I'm looking at.

Yes next door to the massage shops where the oldish chaps knock one out for fun

Still to try, think opens 9am, for early risers like myself

Not bad for 169 baht sausage ok only fry or scramble egg option,wanted a bigger piece of toast, satay was fine ,all filled a hole ,pleasant outside better than smiling frog was,furniturewise

Will try different options another time

That breakfast is not how I like it.

[pomps]

Shows the different quality of breakfasts around town,ayam beans,one mini toast,was hungry and did the job,know where I need to go for my type of breakfast,pay little bit more for back bacon and cumberland sausage

Very relaxed outside though,decent furniture,wanted a dessert,none on the menu,will give the place another go,maybe try a pizza offering as dory n chips not really my cup of tea

The breakfast looked like a starter size for Pomps.

If they had it priced at 129 baht would have bought 2 and put onto one plate

Popped into 305 bar today after doing several laps of Soi Sampan in the motor looking for action! Place at the bottom of the soi (Full Throttle Bar) had a few inside. Don't remember the place last time I was here. Brick house had a couple, but for some reason none were calling my name. None outside the Clock but maybe inside. Pegasus bar closed. Viking bar only a couple in.
On 5th lap saw a parking space almost outside 305 so gave it a try.

Was really impressed with it. Is fitted out nicely. Sat on the pavement under cover with flans blowing. Owner (Scott's guy) nice and friendly. Golf on the TV's but he's happy to take requests and has one of those smart TV box things with every channel known to man.
Serving staff nice and pleasant and easy on the eye.
Decent menu but was already full so stuck to beer. Beer Lao Dark at 100 baht a bottle seemed a decent option.

Will go back and try some food next time.

They have their own pizza oven on show inside so will sample one or 2 next time,remember seeing a farang setting up their extra bar area across the side soi the last time so has extra seating while watching the world go by

Full throttle gets the badgers bikey crowd and that includes Panick,gets a decent crowd in

As you have noticed, not many fahlangs out and about to pay all the bars their costs
