Battlefield Bangkok

Visited the game store for the first time yesterday. It is nice. It has lots of tables and comfortable chairs. Has nice large, clean rest rooms. Like most public toilets, you have to bring your own toilet paper.

It also has its own small coffee bar with cheap coffee, tea, and slushie drinks, both hot and cold, as well as snacks and ramen noodle cups. All the drnks seem to be 50 baht, about $1.35, a lot cheaper than Starbucks. Since gaming is free, I will probably spend 150 baht or so each time to help support the store. We think ramen noodles are to salty and bad for you. But, if you live in SE Asia, you need the salt. Whew!

Like some Thai places, you have to take your shoes off.

There is a hamburger place next door that will deliver. It seems to be the Bangkok HQ of gaming. He has 5 or 6 of each game for sale. Hopefully, I can find one opponent each week for a nice wargame.

  1. Trip Advisor is my favorite travel website. And it lists 90 fun places to go for fun in Bangkok. Battlefield Bangkok is number 38. Check it out online.

  2. Oh and as you likely know Battlefield Bkk has a website and a Facebook page too with a picture of inside the store in their Welcome section that you can rotate to look at the whole store.

  3. Yes, Chris (owner of BB) keeps telling me to get on Facebook. But, it is just too complicated for me and doesn't fit with my lifestyle.

  4. Good thing you have a fanny pack. Put toilet paper in it and hook your shoes on it so you don't forget them ;-)
