Brouke — Restaurant in Pattaya City

❌❌❌ I strongly DO NOT recommend this place!! 📖I was here to celebrate my friend's birthday. The restaurant was chosen specifically. Now just imagine: We dressed up in festive clothes, took balloons with us. But the staff saw a box with a cake in my hands. This cake was made to order in advance. And they did not let us come in, although the birthday girl was already waiting inside and she had already ordered coffee. 😮‍💨I tried to explain to staff that the box was only a gift, that we would not use it in the restaurant. But they even called the director, who began to explain the same thing over the phone. 🚷An absolutely empty restaurant at 10 am, no one guest except us! And they seemed ready to call the police, but not to let us come in.

‼️Just think about whether you want to trust your food to people who are willing to ruin their guests' holiday for the sake of principles (which do not even entail losses for them).

UPDATE FOR OWNER REPLY=== ⏱️When I wrote a review, restaurant's owner replied that I could have entered if I had bought something in the restaurant. The owner doesn't even pay attention to what I already wrote - the birthday girl had ALREADY MADE an order (coffee) and was waiting for her friends inside! But I came with a group of friends, and we all wanted to buy drinks and cakes in this restaurant. I came to the restaurant to eat food and drink beverages that I can buy in the restaurant. Yes, all restaurants work on the same principle. And I have experience visiting restaurants, just imagine that! ⁉️However the STAFF DID NOT LET ME GO INSIDE so it is not entirely clear how exactly I was supposed to order food or drinks here, although I was still standing outside. How did this owner even come up with the idea that I came to the restaurant and did not plan to buy anything? Why should I go to the restaurant then? To sit on a chair at the table? I have a chair and a table at home!

😔This is so typical of a Thai owner - trying to find any (even unrealistic) reasons just to remain right, and the customer remained an idiot who did not know that he need to order food in restaurants! I took a screenshot of this owner's response and will attach it here, because he/she will probably want to change it after I supplement the review! ‼️‼️‼️I suggest to everyone reading this review to think whether you want to deal with a person who is ready to make you look like a fool, even knowing that this person himself is wrong! Would you trust him to cook your food?...

✅ Pros: Nice for taking photos especially IG people Drinks especially matcha taste good Decent view of the ocean Good seating arrangement Interior is somewhat nice, minimalistic and creative

❌ Cons: Drinks are expensive, not worth the and are not various Have to buy one drink per person to enter (somewhat trying to make the cafe seem special even though there are competitor cafes that do the same job and quality of this cafe or does an even better job and still doesn’t act superficial) No plug holes at all, it’s as if they’re pretty selfish on letting you use electricity, basically, a anti co working space Once you come one time, there’s legit no point to come back again, it’s repetitive Parking is very limited Seating isn’t too comfortable Area is somewhat tight, especially the table with that has cushioned seats Not enough seats, it’s more like it was made to for you to take photos and get out as fast as possible

😤Overall: Wouldn’t recommend for people to come far to come and sit and drink and chill. Place is just made to take photos and that’s it, it’s as if you just pay 110+ just...

this place isn’t for tourists, staff doesn't speak english at all. I ordered and paid for a coffee, staff gave me a remote control and told me to wait outside, specifying that it was impossible to go inside. after 15 minutes no one came to me, the remote also didn’t ring, I went upstairs to ask if my coffee was ready. it turned out that the staff thought that I had already left lol. they let me into the hall, even though they had said before that it wasn’t allowed, then they prepared my coffee for about 10 minutes and laughed strangely. the place is instagrammable, but client-oriented at zero.
