Where to get a Sunday Roast now PFC has closed down

For those of you that have lived on Koh Samui for a while or are frequent visitors to the island, there is a good chance that you have came across Pompey Nick and the PFC Bar. The English football (Portsmouth FC to be precise) themed bar, on Soi Reggae in Chaweng, was one of my favourite places on a Sunday to have full blown roast dinner and then settle in to the evening’s Premiership with Nick as the host.

Unfortunately the bar has succumbed to the demon and was closed down at the end of last year, leaving many people stuck with somewhere to go for a Sunday Roast. Could there be another Nick on the island that can do a smashing home cooked meal like that and still be the joyous host that he was.

Now I have tried a few others in Chaweng and in the most part nothing is quite as good. Head down to the Beach Road and you will find The Wave, which does a smashing Sunday Roast, every day of the week, which kind of takes away the speciality of eating it. Others that I’ve heard of include the Elephant & Castle in Bangrak and Tropical Murphy’s in Chaweng. Could any of these be a possible substitute for Pompey Nick and his lovely wife Poom?
