It doesn’t matter if you’re from North or South of Watford in the Queen Victoria Inn (Soi Yodsak 6) as every Saturday you have a choice of either pie, mash and liquor for you Eastender fans or if you’re more inclined towards Coronation Street it’s pie, chips, beans or mushy peas and gravy, both are followed by ice cream and both for only 140 baht. A great value meal to sit and watch Saturday sport on our big screen and 5 TVs. As with all other bars, Queen Victoria Inn has lost Carlsberg Draught; however, they now have an alternative, along with Heineken they now have Chang Draught, almost the same taste as Carlsberg, from the same brewery and at a far lower price.
