What is a blowjob bar? BJ bars around the world

A blowjob bar is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a bar where guys can go to get a blowjob for a set fee. It’s normally as straight forward as walking in, ordering a blowjob, and paying. In some places the actual sucking happens in a private or semi-private booth. In others the services are rendered in a private room. And there are still other places where oral sex is performed right out in the open in plain view of whoever might be around.

Blow job bars can be found all over the world. But they are more concentrated in Asia. Some Asian countries have dozens of blowjob bars. Others hand none. I have researched the subject of blowjob bars for over a decade. It was hard work, but someone had to do it. I share my findings with you here.

Theoretically the women who work at blowjob bars should be better at sucking cock than most others. This is often the case but there are many exceptions. Blowjob bars sometimes act as a place of last refuge for women too unattractive or old to work elsewhere in the sex industry. It can also attract those in need of a quick buck. Surprisingly the women working at these places regardless of country tend to be quite friendly. As a general role they are even more – and more genuinely – genial than a lot of strippers in countries like the United States or the Czech Republic.

How do blowjob bars work?

Now that you know what a blowjob bar is I will tell you how blowjob bars works. In some parts of the world blowjob bars in one form or another are a standard part of the pay for play scene. Though they share some commonalities that stretch across borders, there also differences between suck shops at both the individual and national levels. I will try to explain how blowjob bars work in different places.

Blowjob Bar Thailand

I first published this report at the end of 2012. I have since updated it many times. It seems fitting to update the post again now at the beginning of 2023 as so much additional information on blowjob bars has been published here over the last ten years. Many things have changed in the world. The suck shops are especially prone to such volatility. Yet some things remain the same, like the fact that BJ Bars offer oral to guys who can pay the price of admission.

BJ Bars in Thailand

Thailand has a massive adult entertainment scene that offers a wide variety of paid sexual services. There are close to thirty blowjob bars across the country. Though these days most Thai BJ bars are centered in two main cities.

Both Pattaya and Bangkok are infamous for their pay for play scenes. Accordingly there are plenty of places in both cities where guys can get their swords swallowed with little to no hassle. There are at least 1,000 Thai blowjob bar workers.

Tipping at Thai blowjob bars is not expected or required. The set price for a blowjob covers everything in Thai blowjob bars. But some customers do hand over extra cash whenever they feel it is deserved. Or perhaps out of a sense of guilt or even duty.

Blowjob bars in Bangkok

In Bangkok the most accessible blowjob bar in existence today is probably Wood Bar which was formerly and famously known as Dr BJ’s. The shop is set up a bit like a dentist’s office. Customers walk in and chose a service provider from the lineup. Then they follow their gal to a small private booth that comes complete with a sink and reclining chair. In the booth they strip down, get their dick and balls washed in the sink, then sit down and receive their blowjob.

Bangkok BJ bar business cards

The price at Wood Bar is 700 baht ($21 USD) for a head job from a “nurse” and 1000 baht ($30 USD) for the same service from a “consultant.” It’s not clear to me what the difference is. Of course there are extras beyond the blowjob available at a higher rate. Customers who ask for full service pay more and get access to a bedroom.

Magic Table is a few doors down from Wood Bar. It’s an old go go bar with elevated stages surrounded by stools. Customers who sit on these stools quickly realize what makes the tables magic. They’re covered with mirrors and reveal that the women dancing in skirts and bikini tops don’t wear panties. Oral service is available in two VIP rooms in the back of the bar for 1000 Baht.

Afterskool is a full fledged go go bar on the Soi Cowboy strip that is also known for extras. In exchange for several lady drinks and a tip of around 1000 Baht some of the women on staff are known to blow customers discreetly in the bench seats or over in the “naughty boy corner” next to the bar.

Lolita’s on Sukhumvit Soi 8 is another well known hands-free bar in Bangkok. It’s been around for a while and the going rate for a suck and shoot there is now 800 Baht ($24 USD) up from 600 Baht just a few years ago. The women at Lolita’s wear plaid skirts and uniform tops and stand in front of their shop waiting for customers. The bar inside is usually empty. Service is provided on chair with pull around curtains in a room upstairs. The bar is easy to see with a neon sign and it is located between the On8 Hotel and a busy 7 Eleven.

Only steps away sits Kasalong on Sukhumvit Soi 6. Opened by a renegade who left Lolita’s the bar is much larger than its nearby competitor and comes complete with a pool table though that doesn’t ever seem to be used anymore. The many women who work at Kasalong wear light blue skirts with matching uniform tops and wait in chairs out front for customers. Service takes place in several private booths upstairs that come complete with sinks and couches that at this point have become pretty worn out. For years Kasalong asked 100 Baht less than Lolilta’s but today it also charges for 800 Baht.

Wood Bar blowjob bar in Bangkok

Som’s Haven on Sukhumvit Soi 14 not far from the massive and modern Terminal 21 mall was another BJ bar that was started by a former Lolita’s employee. After many years in operation it closed in late 2018 only to reopen nearby as Duangporn Haven. The many women on staff usually sit out front waiting for customers. Customers can hang out with the gals in the lounge just inside and enjoy cheap drinks. Or they go upstairs to one of the many private cubicles where oral is offered. Som’s is one of the least expensive bar of its kind in the capital city since it charges a mere 800 Baht per session.

A less popular bar called the Lollipop 1 was located on Sukhumvit Soi 10 next to the Paradiso Hotel until it closed in 2018. It did not reopen anywhere. Both the Lollipop 1 and the Lollipop 2 are now out of business so there are no more Lollipop blow job bars in Bangkok.

Kimochil BJ on Thonglor Soi 3 bills itself as a new kind of blowjob bar. It’s actually more of a massage parlor. Off the beaten path the place has a large lobby where customers are presented with a menu offering various services including a 40 minutes massage and oral happy ending for 1400 Baht ($42 USD) and optional facial ending for 500 Baht more. The private rooms upstairs are a lot less luxurious but perhaps fitting for the situation. They include mattresses on the floor and in suite showers.

There are also some Asian oriented blowjob bars in the Sukhumvit area of Bangkok that tend to hire more attractive but less skilled ladies. They also charge more. Bit Style went through several iterations but eventually went under. When the bar was in business oral service was available on benches in private booths for 1300 Baht ($39 USD).

The increasingly popular 7Heaven on Sukhumvit Soi 33 looks a lot like a Japanese pink salon and has a lot attractive Thai women in their early 20’s on staff. They charge 1300 Baht for a session with one lady and 2500 Baht ($75 USD) for a double.

Vovo on Sukhumvit Soi 33 is the newest blow job bar in Bangkok. It is also one of the most impressive. This BJ bar has themed rooms designed to look like hospital rooms and professional offices. Ladies will even dress up like nurses or secretaries when they blow you. A half-hour blowjob here is 1400 Baht. There are extra charges for the use of special rooms or costumes.

Lolita's BJ bar bangkok

Madame Claude is another newer BJ bar. Located on Sukhumvit Soi 26, the place is also rather large and elaborate for a suck shop. Prices are on par with other Asian style blow job bars in Bangkok. A standard suck off at Madame Claude costs 1300 Baht which is almost double what the older BJ bars in town charge. But non-standard services like a chocolate covered blow job are also available.

For years the infamous Star of Light on Patpong 2 offered a similar service to the Sukhumvit bars though there was a lot less privacy. This little shop contains nothing more than a short bar, two booths and a tiny bathroom. The mostly veteran staff sit outside waiting for customers. They perform their services for 700 Baht either in the bar on the booths or in the bathroom. Guys were known to get sucked off on the couches while others drank at the bar an arm’s length away.

One floor up from the old Star of Light sits the little known The World which is also variously known as Meet the World, Kob’s Place, Linda’s Place and Linda Place. The World is larger than Star of Light but even more worn down. There are only a handful of women on staff including a bartender. Action is variously priced and seemingly negotiable and service takes place either in the bench seats along the wall or in a small curtained off area in the back.

There were two more blowjob bars one street over on Patpong 1. Both were upstairs and have street level entrances guarded by doormen who ring bells to let everyone inside know when someone was headed up the stairs. Rose’s was one of the oldest blowjob bars in all of Bangkok and the staff reflected that. The shop had some bench seats along the walls and a decrepit old bar and not much else. But suck jobs were offered right inside for 1000 Baht, in full view of anyone else in the bar.

Then there was Kangaroo which was a slightly more modern bar located on the same street as Rose’s. It was a fun place with a television in the corner playing Creampie Thai porn on a loop. The handful of women who worked there offered oral service for 800 Baht. But they were less likely to perform in public. They preferred to use a small room in the back out of the prying eyes of other customers and the ladyboy bartender.

There are no other blowjob bars in Bangkok today that I know of though there were several other blowjob bars in years gone by. Some, like Tokyo Jogakuen lasted less than a year. But others like Mike’s Place were around for years.

BJ Bars in Pattaya

There are many blowjob bars scattered around Pattaya, with big concentrations on Soi Full Love Inn and the open sex market known as Soi 6. They often have names that reveal their purpose. Places like “Pump Station” let you know exactly what they are about. “Kittens” doesn’t have such a straightforward name but the services are identical.

There was a time when customers could enter one of these shops, grab a drink, pick a girl, and get sucked off right at the bar, in a booth or in a semi-private room for a few hundred baht. The public suck stuff seems to have greatly died down though in a few cases it has actually just moved a few feet over. These days public oral is more commonly found in Pattaya gentlemen’s clubs which I will discuss below.

Pattaya BJ bars usually have a bevy of women sitting outside of them waiting for customers. They range in looks from average to over the hill with a few stunners mixed in for good measures. Once in a while a real beauty will work in a Pattaya BJ bar but most of the best lookers are working in go go bars where they can make big bucks.

Soi 13/2 which is also known as Soi Post Office is home to several old beer bars that double as pickle polishing pubs. Golden Girl had a long history on the street before it shuttered in 2014. Two other bars on the street called The Pump Station 1 and The Pump Station 2 operate in similar fashion though they have more women on staff. They charge 800 Baht for oral in private rooms above the bars. Neither of those bars operate like the original Pump Station which had a bar with curtained covered cutouts underneath so customers could get blown while imbibing their beers!

King Kong blowjob bar in Pattaya

Kittens on Soi 13/2 is a newer bar with a younger and generally more attractive staff. The women are mainly in their twenties. Although they don’t always bring it up immediately like their counterparts at Wood Bar, they do offer oral services in private rooms upstairs for 800 Baht.

Pattaya’s Soi 6 is home to several short time bars that offer on demand oral services including My Friend You, Full Moon and Click Bar. The price for a blow at these venues is typically 800 Baht.

At My Friend You and Click Bar the services are rendered on couches inside the bar that are only surrounded by flimsy curtains. At King Kong the action takes place in a private room accessed through a secret door in the wall. Customers who want service in a private room above any of these bars have to pay an additional 300 to 500 Baht for the privilege though that also usually includes full service as a matter of course.

The aforementioned Lolita’s in Bangkok once has aspirations of being a blowjob bar chain as evidenced by the Lolita’s on Soi Chaiyapoon in Pattaya. This Lolita’s opened after another Lolita’s on LK Metro closed when the owner passed away. Now both Lolita’s in Pattaya have shuttered. Still they are worth mentioning for their historical merit. The women on staff wore uniforms like the ladies in Bangkok and offered oral in private rooms with reclining chairs upstairs for 700 Baht.

Pump station blowjob bar Pattaya

The Telephone Bar on Soi Batman and Bar Club la Poste on Soi Lengkee offer an interesting take on the blowjob bar model. Every customer who enters or leaves is greeted in unison by the women on staff. When a customer buys a lady drink, the recipient drops her top and gives the customer access to her breasts. Oral services are available in private areas for 650 Baht ($19.50 USD) and occasionally right at the bar.

King’s Club on Third Road is a blowjob bar in a converted restaurant. Because of that it looks very nice inside with well decorated walls, a big bar and a quality pool table. The women on staff wait for customers in a small room in front of the shop. They offer oral services in the bar area or upstairs for 800 Baht. This spot was called Bliss Lounge under a previous owner. Though it was fairly similar.

Soi Bongkot 8, also known as “Soi Full Love Inn”, has become a sort of blow row in recent years as several gentlemen’s clubs have opened in one concentrated area. These clubs are staffed by women of various attractiveness who usually wear uniforms of some kind. They are clean and modern and have big bars and lots of semi-private booths. They also have private rooms upstairs. The front doors remained locked until customers rings buzzers to be let inside. That allows for all sorts of activities to happen right on the main floor. Prices are usually 700 Baht for oral on the ground floor or 1300 for more private action upstairs.

At one point there were only two bars of this type on Soi Full Inn. That has changed. The gentlemen’s clubs on the strip today include Pirates, Club 4, 007, Club Sin, J Club, Amsterdam, Bada Bing, and Carre Blanc.

Other bars around town like the popular Excite Club and Club M also operate on a gentlemen’s club model with oral services available on premises for similar prices.

Hong Kong blowjob bars

Hong Kong has plenty of prostitution that ranges from the legal to the gray market and beyond. But there is only one blowjob bar in the territory. That’s the Dragon Bar.

The Dragon Bar is a sort of go go bar staffed by a handful of Filipinas. Few people ever sit around and watch the show here. It’s a lot more interactive. There are benches in the two front corners of the bar where women on staff suck off customers in exchange for lady drinks that cost 250 Hong Kong Dollars ($32.25 USD) each.

The oral service here is meant as a teaser to get customers to take women out of the bar at exorbitant prices. Though customers who request it can be finished off by mouth in the bar for a negotiated rate. Expenses can add up quickly for guys caught up in sheer pleasure. Needless to say this is a not cheap place. Especially when compared to other suck shops in Asia.

Blow job bars in the Philippines

The day of the blowjob bar seems to have passed in the Philippines. Angeles City used to have a short street filled with short time bars that used to be referred to as “blow row.” But it has for the most part all been shut down by a combination of government pressure and poor business.

Customers will still occasionally get oral service inside a go go bar on the Walking Street portion of Fields Avenue. But it is much more common further up on Perimeter Road. Even there the service is never a sure thing anymore. Increasingly common bar raids probably have a lot to do with that.

Vietnam BJ barbershops

It used to be somewhat common for customers to get oral sex in private areas of Ho Chi Minh City’s hostess bars but that is no longer the case. Most of Saigon’s hostess bars are today nothing more than places for customers to drink in the company of women. There are a few exceptions including places like Bar 29 that appear to be hanging on by a thread.

In Vietnam blowjob barbershops are much more common. Although there are some adult oriented cafes — including a few where the staff offers oral to customers — the blowjob barbershops locally refered to as hot toc om or cat toc om are much more common.

To be clear, not all barbershops in the country offer oral relief. Most do not even if they have good looking women working in them. Many are legitimate hair salons. Others are hand job shops. And some like Le Duyen 4 are just places local guys go for eye candy while getting a trim or an ear cleaning. The salons that offer oral range in scope. Some employ only one or two middle aged lady in pajamas. Others are staffed by dozens of skilled and attractive women in their early twenties.

blowjob barbershop vietnam

All blowjob barbershops follow a similar model. Customers walk inside and select one of the available women on staff. They then walk to one of several private booths or rooms with a massage table and a sink. They strip down and sit on the table while the gal they’ve selected goes off to collect some wet naps and mouthwash. When the gal returns she washes the customer’s hands. Then she pulls down her top and her panties and commences to give the customer oral.

After the session completes the customers get dressed and head back to the front where they pay their tab. Most of the blowjob barbershops charge customers between 100,000 and 200,000 Dong ($4.40 – $8.80 USD). The customers are also expected to tip their service providers. Most give an amount equal to the house fee though some will give more.

The blowjob barbershops are completely oriented to local guys but they all accept foreign customers too. The women on staff rarely if ever speak any language other than Vietnamese. Foreigners are sometimes expected to pay as much as double the normal rate since guys from other countries often pay more than the set fee or ask “how much”?

Blowjob barbershops exist all over Vietnam but Ho Chi Minh City is probably home to the most. Some hot toc om in Saigon include Huynh Phuc Khang, Kim Yen, Quynh Anh, Thien Huong, Van An, Hoai 42, Thien Huong Dat, Tuan Anh, Benny’s, Tuan Tam, Phu Ngoc, Hoang Thanh, Hoang Duc, Hoang Dia, and Thien Phu. The popular Thien Phu is no longer in operation.

Blowjob bars in Cambodia

At one point in the not so distant past there were a few bars in Phnom Penh where oral services were offered at incredibly low rates. Those bars have all been closed for years now but they were so legendary that they are still talked about today.

At a semi-secret bar called Sofie’s customers could get a sample suck job while enjoying their beers for a mere $1 US. The bar was sort of hidden from full view of the public. But that didn’t prevent it from getting shut down apparently as a result of complaints from the neighbors.

cambodian bar girl

Cambodia’s commercial sex scene is largely over scandalized by the foreign press. All in all the country is still very conservative. Millions of women there continue to save themselves for marriage. Porn and even sex toys are actually illegal.

Customers occasionally receive hand or blowjobs in Phnom Penh hostess bars or karaoke parlors but it is somewhat rare. There are definitely no specialized suck shops around even if there may be a handful of bars like Splash with private booths or a special room in the back that gets occasional use.

Indonesia BJ bars

There are no blow job bars in Indonesia but there is a large and vibrant commercial sex industry. That’s true even though the new governor is trying to shut down one of the biggest sex saunas in the country and despite his predecessor closing one of the largest red light districts a little earlier.

While most of the prostitution in Jakarta is aimed at locals. The infamous Blok M was full of bars that were mostly patronized by westerners. By many of those bars have closed. Clearly Blok M is on its last legs. Some of the most popular businesses on the Blok have closed. Others have changed immensely.

D’s Place is maybe the most popular of all the remaining Blok M bars, probably because they have a stage where some pretty ladies in bikinis dance around poles. Or it could be because there is a semi-secret room in the back. In that room and even in some dark corners of the bar some of the older women will occasionally perform hand or oral service for customers willing to pay. Because of that I have seen D’s Place described as “Indonesia’s only blow job bar”. I wouldn’t characterize it as such at all. But I am not the only voice on earth. And the room gets less use now than it ever did. Some new customers are apparently told it doesn’t even exist.

Now there is little still oriented exclusively to foreigners. Though the local shops do not bar non-Indonesian men from entry. And many local places are actually quite open.

Public oral service is also sometimes offered in some of the bigger sex clubs like Malioboro when guys tip big money or buy a lot of lady drinks for dancers. Since it’s not the focus of those places, I wouldn’t call them blow job bars either.

Pink salons in Japan

Japan’s blowjob bar scene is perhaps the most notorious in the world. At the very least it’s the largest. In the megalopolis of Tokyo, and a number of other areas, these “pink salons” (or pinsaros as the Japanese call them) are ubiquitous. Legend has it that all blowjob bars can trace their heritage back the the pink salons of Japan. But further research would be required to confirm that.

Pinsaros were originally created to get around laws that officially outlawed only penis-in-vagina penetrative sex. Japan’s plentiful suck shops offer quick oral relief at a relatively low cost.

Japan’s pinsaros typically don’t offer private rooms. Apparently this too is a part of not being labeled an adult shop. Or it at least shows that there are no knocking rooms inside. An inspector could theoretically pop in and confirm that no one was “having sex” even if all guys in attendance were having their rods slobbed.

Most pink salons play cheesy music but at a volume much lower than the average night club. The places are open enough that customers can see the backs of other customer’s heads. It’s also common for customers to catch a glimpse or two of a girl walking by or servicing another guy. Occasionally you can even hear an overly enthusiastic woman sucking away like a Hoover vacuum cleaner.

pink salon signs in tokyo

People in Japan are generally very polite and privacy minded. Customers in pink salons don’t look at each other any more than the average guy peeps at a public urinal. That’s not necessarily because they’re not interested in seeing blowjobs though. Look at the many pink salon themed Japanese porn videos! They just have manners and understand the protocol.

Pink salons are pretty straight forward and all operate on the same model. Customers walk in and pay a set fee to a manager at a front desk. They then get led to one of several restaurant style booths in a dimly lit shop. Customer’s who know a service provider by name can request or “nominate” them for an extra fee.

After waiting for a while in their booths the customers are greeted by their service provider. The women usually wear some sort of sexy outfit though pink salon staff members aren’t really known for their good looks.

After a bit of small talk customers are asked to take their pants off. Their services providers then strip down before washing off their customer’s cocks with a wet nap or moist wash cloth. After that they go to work delivering the oral services they specialize in.

Some service providers go the extra mile and allow customers to touch them all over. It’s not unheard of for them to get into the 69 position and do mutual oral sex either. But for the most part straightforward head is the norm. Surprisingly, they are not all expertly skilled in the art of suck jobs. Some are just calling it in to get paid.

blowjob bar pink salon Japan

Prices vary from one shop to another but the rate is usually around 4000 Yen ($36 USD). Characteristic of Japan the level of service at these places is really unmatched. For example, a lot of shops will offer specials like 2 girls sucking for the price of one. Others run “buy one BJ, get one free” specials. Some shops even have point cards. After customers come ten times they show their point card and cum again free. It may sound odd to the outside observer. But some of the cut-rate places will have lines literally out the door when they offer big discounts.

Although they mostly look and operate in the same way, the different such shops in Japan have different setups. Some have themes and accompanying uniforms. Others employ beautiful young women. A few even employ housewives. Many simply employ anyone they can get.

Although pink salons are all over the place only a select few are open to foreigners. In other parts of Japan’s commercial sex industry this is usually explained away by saying that foreigners have more diseases or wouldn’t understand the system or the shop owner’s instructions. Rumor has it that a lot of pink salons are owned by people who seriously dislike foreigners.

Since Ichigo Kurabu changed names and officially banned foreigners, there are now only four suck shops in Tokyo that accept non-Japanese guys. They are Jan Jan, Hinomaru, Dio/Emotion, Look x Look, and Academy which despite the name is worked by ladies of a certain age.

N-Cats in Kyoto is the most notable foreigner friendly pink salon outside of Tokyo. This is a standard Japanese BJ bar with a semi-public setting.

As with anything else in Japan tipping is not expected at the pink salons. The idea of tipping is alien to Japanese culture and can even be considered rude in some situations. In most cases tips probably wouldn’t even be accepted at a Japanese pink salon.

Lip cafes South Korea

There is no specific blowjob bar scene to speak of in South Korea. Granted there are special karaoke rooms where the women on staff suck off all of their customers at the end of the session. But those aren’t specialized suck shops. And they aren’t accessible to most non-Koreans either. Those who are Korean will already know about those places.

South Korea does have its own unique type of shop called a lip cafe however. These shops may technically be a form of kiss bang where customers are supposed to pay a set fee to make out with an attractive woman who is usually still enrolled in university. Though the lip cafes tend to take things further than French kisses.

Lip cafe in South Korea

At some kiss rooms some individual women occasionally offer oral sex to customers for an extra fee. At the lip cafes oral sex is basically a given and all the women on staff offer it to their customers.

The lip bangs are somewhat underground and mostly rely on the internet to advertise. They rarely post their locations publicly. Instead these shops prefer to have customers contact them with smartphone chat apps like the local favorite Kakaotalk. That way they can screen customers. They can also meet customers in person on a public street before leading them to their shops.

Many will not accept foreigners especially if they don’t speak Korean. Though non-Korean customers have been known to gain access to some of these lip cafe blowjob shops with some time and effort.

Switzerland and the UK

All of the blowjob bars in the world are concentrated in Asia. This gives credence to the tales about suck saloons originating with the Japanese pink salon model.

But back in 2016, stories started appearing in the press about plans to open a pickle polishing coffee shop in the Swiss city of Geneva. According to these reports the place was set to have women available to blow customers while they enjoyed their cup of joe.

The ambitions of the people who wanted to open their cock sucking cafe were quickly scuttled however. Not long after the initial reports emerged word came that the place would run afoul of Swiss rules against pimping.

Of course no Swiss fellatio cafe ever came into being. Stories about a similar shop staffed by robots being set to open in London seem to have been nothing more than hot air even though there is a website already in place.

If a blowjob bar does eventually open up in Europe you can be sure I will report on it. Though I honestly wouldn’t actually expect such a thing to actually come to fruition. I have been surprised in the past though. So watch this space.

Suck Job Safety

And what about safety in blowjob bars? With all the man meat and salty semen going into the mouths of the BJ bar workers there must be major risks, right? Well, maybe not.

Apparently it’s fairly rare for a man to catch anything by receiving oral sex without a condom. I-Base calls it “likely to be zero or close to zero” risk for HIV. There is a risk of gonorrhea transmission but it is not all that high either. There may also be a low risk of chlamydia transmission through this route though at least one highly respected US physician says there is no risk at all:

“You’ll find lots of information on the web and elsewhere saying chlamydia is acquired by oral sex, but it’s wrong — even though such statements often come from apparently authoritative sources, such as public health departments. But the research is clear that chlamydia rarely infects the throat and, when it does, rarely is transmitted by oral sex (if ever).”

Herpes can of course be transmitted from mouth to penis. Syphilis can also be transmitted through oral with or without a condom if a rash or sore is present. Yet this is still described as an “uncommon occurrence” by most medical professionals.

condom on Japanese lips

Now please don’t take this to mean that customers at blowjob bars cannot contract any illnesses. That would a ridiculous assertion to make. I am simply relaying a summary of what research based information I can find. There’s no question that sexually transmitted infections can be transmitted by oral sex.

I am also going on anecdotal evidence which isn’t scientific but is there nonetheless. There are a lot of women working in blowjob bars and related businesses. Accordingly, they give oral to several men a day sometimes for years on end. Obviously they are not coming down with any life threatening diseases in large numbers. If they were the shops would have closed long ago. This website and life in general has also brought me into contact with many fans of blowjob bars. I don’t know any of them who have come down with any serious illnesses either.

Women giving oral sex can get gonorrhea in the throat. Though that usually seems to resolve on its own when it does occur. Since STD tests almost never include any throat swabbing that makes sense. If no one is testing throats for gonorrhea how could they be prescribing medicines to threat gonorrhea of the throat?

According to some sources the risk of a woman getting herpes on her mouth from giving oral sex is very low. And according to other sources the risk of a woman contracting HIV from giving oral sex to an HIV positive man is 4 in 10,000.

While nearly anything a guy or gal would get from oral sex would be easily curable with a dose of antibiotics there are some strains of infection popping up recently that show strong resistance to normal treatment. Most seem to have emerged in Asia. Does the existence and popularity of blowjob bars have something to do with this? I doubt it but I can’t be sure.

Few if any suck shop service providers would deride a customer for requesting a condom. Although it is rare, some shops do use them as standard practice. Some women working in these places also have their own policies. Though usually blow job bars offer unprotected oral as a matter of course.

Of course I don’t suggest or recommend anything. I am just a reporter. This website is meant for entertainment only. I write to bring readers enjoyment and nothing else. You are responsible for your own life and the actions you take. Like anything else you have to balance the risk and the reward. At the end of the day, it is as the Thais say, “up to you”.

So there you have it: the low down on how guys get their swords swallowed for a few bucks in a plethora of locations, updated and modernized for today’s discerning reader.

    1. Thanks for visiting. I don’t really know how to answer this. Check the places listed here and the review for Dr. BJs. I don’t have any recommendations for hotels other than to use a site like Hotels.com to find a place close to whatever it is you want to visit while in Bangkok.

        1. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Most of the pinsaro workers spit, but they often do it “politely” into a tissue or wash cloth (and only after getting you cleaned up). I have known of a few to swallow but it’s not common. Can’t really blame them when some are taking a dozen or more loads per day!

          1. I agree, but if you keep coming back to the same girl. You may be able to talk them or tip them into swallowing for you. I know a few girls in Pattaya that are 50/50 on swallowing to spit ratio, and they have 10 plus costumers a day you do the math. Anyway thank you for the feedback.

        1. There are a few at least around District 1 in Saigon if not in it. I don’t know the borders of the districts well enough to say. Sorry to say I do not have exact names or addresses on any of those places. It’s easy enough to get to My Tien or Ben Ny’s though if you have problems finding something local.

          There are no blowjob bars in Hong Kong, but there are plenty of walk ups in North Point, and BJ is almost always an option. Check my post here: https://rockitreports.com/hong-kong-is-one-of-the-easiest-places-to-get-laid-in-the-world/

          1. I apologize if this question is inappropriate. Do any of these BJ bars have male employees? I have an obsession with oral and would love to try working in one of these places for a week.

            1. Blowjob bars normally employ women. Though the occasional ladyboy has worked at some places in Thailand such as Le Poste, Carre Blanc and The Pump Station. Cheers.

            2. I recommend you seek out the Gay scene in Thailand. And if you pay you should have no problem finding people to blow? Straight men can be tempted to try a Bj from a Ladyboy because part of the brain think its a girl. Ladyboys that look like Tom of Finland have fewer customers. Good luck.

        1. The only thing I know that’s in Uijeongbu is the US Army. Because of that there must be something around there, though it might consist mainly of overpriced Juicy Bars. Sorry I don’t know more. Cheers.

      1. Hi RockIt
        Which 1 gives the best BJs? Can you narrow down a place that has girls who always take it past their tonsils?

        1. Hi. Unfortunately there aren’t any deep throat specialty places that I know of. It’s not too common, even amongst the pros that work blowjob bars. If you ask whoever is in charge they can usually point out the woman that’s best at it. They should all be able to get you off though. Cheers.

      2. I got chlamydia from a BJ bar girl just from oral. She did have me knocking the back of her throat though, and that is where oral chlamydia lives [not in the mouth]. So it seems a case can be made against deep throat in these places!

        1. It is certainly possible to pick up a bug at a BJ bar. That’s one of the risks. Thankfully it’s not common and the bugs can nearly always be cured with a few pills. The only way to avoid the risks completely are to use a condom or avoid the shops completely. Hope you’ve recovered. Cheers.

      3. Oh, yeah, no problem. It is part of the game. I will continue to go for BBBJ [no deep throat though] but that’s the only BB I’ll do.

      4. Korea has a thriving blowjob scene. the major issue with it is it’s very underground and you must be able to speak some korean to get involved. Usually you find a card in an area that says “lip cafe” in korean. There will be a price and a phone number. You must call the number and get directions from the person on the other end. I’m told they don’t mind foreigners. I’ve been anxious to try one but my korean isn’t good enough to follow directions.

      5. Good article. I’m moving to Hawaii soon so I plan to check out Eastern Asia on my weekends. Thanks for the awesome write up, going to check out the article on Hong Kong right now.

      6. Are there any places you know of in Thailand where you can still get a BJ out in the open bar area? Perhaps as an option with a surcharge? Thanks for your article, it’s well written and informative!

      7. I really wish that I had known about pinsaros when I lived in Tokyo, because my Japanese was passable and I love the schoolgirl look.

        Best paid BJ remains my go to massage shop in Vientiane. An apparently legit shop near the fountain, but one lady in particular was quick to offer extras and as routine I’d go once a week for a great rubdown and a perfect BJ. Even when she finished me with her hand (her jaw would get tired, I guess?) she would slurp all my juice up before getting out the cleaning towel. My hands roamed freely and although she was late 30s and didn’t speak a lick of English, all the other ladies in the shop knew when I arrived that she was my provider.

      8. I did 2 Tours at CAB in Angeles City, and traveled there twice while on Leave in Korea. Years ago the Action was on MacArthur Hi-Way (Blow Row/Road), from 7th Street going towards the Hi-Way to Manila. 7th street and a few other streets had a scattering of these “Specialty” Bars. But on both sides of MacArthur the last two Bars were: on the left side, the World Famous Fire Empire and on the right side the World Famous Firestone Empire. Owned by the same Family who owned a few others like the Anniversary. I personally knew the Papa San and his eldest son. They were good people, both whom are deceased now. When the two Airmen from Kunsan were Murdered by the NPA, the Row Bars moved to Abad Santos Street and Perimeter Road between the ClarkView and Friendship Gates. But before and after the move, there were Specialty Bars off the beaten path in different SubDivisions. One was the Cheyenne Social Club. Back in the day you could get free Samples, if you knew the Method. Otherwise, you buy a Ladies Drink for the Sample. To find out what’s what, just ask some Ex-Pats. There are plenty of American, Aussie or Brit Expats to help. Ask for Pilay, an American Expat, I think he owns a Restaurant now, pronounced (Pea-Lie).

      9. I went to a lip cafe in Gangnam, Seoul, South Korea (https://rockitreports.com/seouls-kiss-bang-tongue-kissing-rooms/#comment-5798), very close to Cool and Belle Jack shacks. (I would post this in the original threat but it is closed) Yangjae exit 2, stright ahead across 9 streets (it’s a bit of a walk), the building it’s in has the name REXION, it’s in the basement here [https://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.490294,+127.030840&num=1&vpsrc=0&ie=UTF8&t=m&z=18&iwloc=A]. in front of the building are some signs and a barber pole. go down the stairs and through a revolving door. go to the left and turn right at the end; the shop is completely red on the outside and says „zero slim body design. enter skin valley“ or some shit. i knocked, the guy who opened was a little surprised to see a whitey, then told me to come in. did the international sign for telefone, i said „anyo“. he said ok, 50000 won. i gave him the money, he showed me into a room. there was a massage table and the floor was wood and pretty dilapidated. in came a very skinny young girl, surprised, quite shy, in a white dress, small. she had a little basket with her with some cups, wet wipes, mouthwash. she told me to undress and lie down. she pulled down her dress a little, sat between my legs and said „oh, big, big“, which i’m really not. she cleaned me and started BBBJ, which was a little mechanical but her mouth felt very nice, wet and warm. i had some pressure but it took me a while, she started jerking me with some massage oil which felt very nice. i told her when i was about to cum, and she then started sucking again, which was felt very nice, very nice CIM. she spit into one of her cups, used some mouthwash, and sucked me some more. she then cleaned me again and said goodbye. went out, felt good.
        i think the bbbj was worth the 50k. good way to get your dick wet and some quick release. she wasn’t really into it, but that’s the thing about koreans: they still make it good. that’s what i love about the country.
        i don’t know if you can actually choose a girl if you know korean, maybe someone who speaks it could try.

        1. Hi. The comments were temporarily closed in that thread because they were approaching 500 in number. They are now open again. Thanks for the report! Cheers.

      10. Thanks Rockit,
        I know all about the possible risks of oral sex anywhere, but I am just wondering how often various diseases are actually picked up at these bars and which diseases. In other words, reality as opposed to possibility. Specifically in Thailand.

        1. I have only heard of confirmed cases of gonorrhea. In countless visits I’ve only had one problem ever and friends of mine have gone more often and had no problems. Then again I hear of guys who go once and get something so who knows? Cheers.

      11. I have frequently read condescending remarks about women who work in blowjob bars. Certainly, having strange, often drunk men cumming in your mouth several times a day is not the dream job of most women, and there is a risk of STD’s. However, there are many jobs that are distasteful (no pun intended) and/or dangerous. For example, police, garbageman, sewer worker, military, working with toxic chemicals, etc.

        In the sex industry, being a popular worker in a blowjob bar has many advantages. It is physically safer than being a bargirl as you are not accompanying a stranger to his hotel or who knows where else; you probably are not required to do full service, which reduces STD risk; and certain undesirable customers are not even let through the front door in certain places.

        Girls can probably make more money than in many bars. With a single half hour customer visit, a girl can make 500-600 baht with a tip, which is almost double what she would make in a store working 10 hours in many cases.

        The real problem is the stigma of working in a blowjob bar. This needs to change. After all, there is perhaps no greater short term pleasure than a great blowjob. Women (and men, for that matter) who provide quality blowjobs for free or for money, should be revered on a pedestal rather than pitied or viewed with contempt. These people are providing a huge benefit to the emotional, and sexual well-being of their customers. Think about it. When have you ever felt better, both physically and emotionally, than right after a great blowjob?

        When the day comes that sex work stigma and STDs are no longer such a danger, hopefully, these places will thrive throughout the world. I expect to see a drastic reduction in violent crime, depression and anxiety among the male population when this great day comes.

        1. I can’t thank you enough for making this wonderful comment which is totally inline with my perspective expressed on the “About” page of this website that I wrote when I first launched Rockit Reports back in 2012. “One day, I hope we’ll be free enough from the artificial constraints we impose upon ourselves for various reasons to simply approach each other for sexual pleasure on the basis of mutual attraction. Unfortunately, at the moment, that’s not always possible. So it remains that money is the greatest social lubricant of all.”

        2. Thanks Rockit !

          I believe there is a strong correlation between sexual repression and male violence. Look at the Muslim countries. While they often have relatively low random street violence, there is rampant violence towards women, especially domestic abuse, honor and revenge killings. Rape is often common.
          Same goes for places like India and central Asia.

          As you doubtlessly know, in the United States, we have many enviable freedoms, but we have probably the most repressive laws on sexuality of any developed nation. You cannot see a breast on television, and outside of rural Nevada, all paid sex is criminalized. Yes, you can be prosecuted and publicly embarrassed because you got an “extra” at a massage parlor. We also have one of the highest levels of violence. Coincidence? I don’t think so.

        3. I agree, i love seeing my girl suck dicks for money.. guys pay $100aud for my girlfriend to suck their dick, while i eat her asshole from behind, shes a good dick sucker, most guys last about 5 mins , some 10 or so if they jerk out a load before seeing her.. the time limit is 30mins , if there is ever a guy who cant cum, after 30mins , shows over .. weve never had that happen.. she can suck big dicks doen to the balls and always gulps down their big sticky loads.. it makes.me so horny for.her , i ravage her 3 to 4 times a day, my girl.. the little cock sucking prostitute

      12. comps to the author.. sorry don’t know name. most reviews I have read where I have personal knowledge are “in the ball park” but this article is “right on”. just got back from pattaya (3rd trip) in july 2015 and except for prices it is really accurate. but, prices go up with success unfortunately. my total favourite Harem 1 is now closed and they opened Harem 2 on the walking street; big big difference. #1 you paid 1500 bkt for 3 hours and could have as many girls as you could handle. once I had 8 BJs (not all to completion) from 8 different girls. oh the memories. new one cost 995 bkt for an hour with one girl. boo.

        THE best pickup place I can’t remember the name damn it but it is just left of the start of the walking street; before entering the street. it is a huge open front bar where hundreds of people go to listen to hot bands each evening. you can get legit working girls who want to augment their income for as little as 1000 bkt for all night. little more mature than the bar girls and enjoy the evening as much as the man. I have had 3 different girls that would be classified as a bar’s star performer. I think the name is the Bamboo Bar.

        also, on 2 side streets away from the walking street are the wildest bars. they play with your cock while sitting with you, no panties in any bar, customers go down on girls on the stage, girls do down on each other, finger fucking all over the place, etc. fyi

        1. Thanks for the comment. It seems action has slowed down a bit on the side streets has slowed down quite a bit over the years. I haven’t seen much wild action in the last few years and many places now require the women to cover up down below. Cheers.

      13. rockit I have a question for you. If the “big guy” told you had only one last 10 day vacation where would you go?
        I am starting my next trip and it really could be my last one, so I want it to be a really good one.

        1. That is a difficult question to answer. I don’t know that I would go anywhere with adult entertainment. I would be just as likely to visit some part of the word I have never been to or revisit a place that I found very special. Cheers.

      14. rockit..

        I am new to this site. Matt666. I found an article in which I send the author a note. do not remember name but he wrote about the telephone booth and backdoor bars. now I can not find on the site where we check our mail or replies to any comments. can you tell me how this is done? sorry to bother you but I have not been able to figure it out on my own.
        Matt

      15. Hi,

        Been reading your for past couple of weeks. Me and my wife are planning a vacation in Thailand from 24th Dec – 2nd Jan.
        Can you please help us find places where me and my wife both can have massage and full service by the opposite sex?
        Also are there any clubs where we can have sex or exchange partners?

      16. rockit. a buddy and I are going to Pattaya the last week in May. why did I decide to go back there instead of a new place? good question. my experience, and I have a lot of it, I believe right now it is the wildest and cheapest hot spot in the world. and, like others in my life time, will start to get pressure from the “do gooders” and be forced to change. I experienced that with san Francisco, Oakland, Amsterdam and Hamburg. I want one more visit before it happens. How about joining us? I think we have a lot in common and numerous stories to share.

      17. Heya! I’m curious about the bj bars in Japan. I know from one of your post said the one doesn’t service foreigners. You know any other bj bars in Japan that don’t mind foreigners?

        1. Yes I do and I have reviewed most of them on this website. The reviews are posted in the “Sex in Japan” and “Blowjob Bars” categories. Cheers.

      18. do you have the address of the Telephone Bar in Pattaya? I got the directions off the map but would appreciate the address. thanks in advance.

      19. Do you know of any blowjob bars around the world… that are in Non-Asian countries? Similar to the concept used in Thailand, Japan, and Vietnam.

        1. I don’t think anything like that exists outside of Asia. In the saunas of Germany guys can often get blowjobs in public either in the movie theaters or other areas but not every woman is up for it. Cheers.

      20. also, went you get as old as I am, you often do stupid things. like where I posted my report. certainly doesn’t belong where I posted. is there anything that can be done about it now?

      21. I saw you said there was a USA link to show where the blowjob bars are in America but I can not see it is there anyway you can post the link friend ?

        1. I read on some forum that there are some underground BJ bars in LA, starting at
          80 bucks a shot. The bar can be filthy and in a bad area. When I lived in LA in 89~94 there were some free lance girls offering a bj for 25 buck on Hollywood boulevard. I left the USA in 95 and have no idea what is available but I am sure you can find what you want if you look around. Cheers!!

      22. do you think should be possible to get this trend into Europe as a business??
        could have a sustainable development in time ?
        in your opinion which are most issues, about to develop this

        1. I haven’t heard of a place blowing anyone but surely there must be a lot of women who would be willing to do it for the right amount of cash. Cheers.

      23. Don’t forget Montréal Canada while it’s not a (blowjob bar scene) you can get a job In most strip clubs by some very hot women

        1. Thanks for the comment. There many places around the world where blowjob are available but this post was about a specific type of venue. Cheers.

      24. Steven.. in Pattaya the “telephone booth” and “le posta”l bj bars give open bar bjs. fyi both are owned by the same lady.

      25. Hey i found this website and I must say it’s so cool and gold love every bit of it but now I want to know where can I find a similar service like this in NY even if through a massage does anyone know where I can find this. Thanks!

      26. S.Korean lip cafes now seem to decrease in number A few years ago almost 50 to 70 lio cafes were found in Seoul. Now about 30 are operating at 40,000 won and up. Too time sensitive and you got only 15, to 20 min maximum allowed to finish. Massage parlour with a bj at the end is getting popular. The cost starts from 60.000 won to 130,000 won. Some accept foreigners like most Japanese tourists more than westerners which is common. Chinese and S.Asian tourists may not be accepted because of discrimination. unless accompanied by a Korean friend.
        In Macau thigh girls at saunas can do bj or more but they try to charge 100 usd or more
        So you need to renegotiate a bit. Cheers.

      27. Hate to be critical, but this have unfairness to male sexes too (if we don’t think with our dick): always male anatomy that easily be demystified/ “objectified” by female (senses), always platform for male anatomy to be ‘objectified’ by female hand/ mouth like this bj cafe that can be specialized at prostitute, yet men doesn’t get the reverse – get platform to demystified female anatomy (like cunnilingus cafe for example) it doesn’t/ very rare to exist right? just like female love blowjob/ fellatio, guy love cunnilingus too. Also if in prostitution it about “male see or touch female bodies” like striptease or sushi eat on female bodies- feminist will claim it objectified female, yet the reverse blowjob cafe (place were dick get “objectified” with no turntable) feminist & mainstream never said the same (objectified of male bodies)- hypocrite. There’s exist a female who think “yeay female gender win, men doesn’t even see female 1/2 naked, yet female see his male genital even suck it off”. I Want Equality make cunnilingus cafe bar too. from: male.

      28. Great site and info! Just curious, can you finish a bj by getting the girl to open her mouth and then shooting the cum inside of her mouth ala porn or do you have to finish while she is sucking your cock?

        1. Each service provider sets their own standards. Most customers finish inside the mouth. Some negotiate or ask for other things like facials or the sort of ending you mention. Not-standard finishes are probably most common in Thailand. Cheers.

      29. I wished I could be a part of giving head for the guys were in demand of sucking cock I do it right there in public on my knees I love sucking cock so much I don’t think I suck like a guy I think I suck like a woman I’m pretty dang good because I love it
        you can squirt in my mouth would love to have three or four men squirt in my mouth same time I would love that if I could only do hand jobs I would have to learn how I just couldn’t resist don’t think I could do it
        I really love sucking dick I wish there was more opportunities that I could really do it comfortably because I would love to get away with it on purpose especially a big cock just really working it I think it’s my favorite thing it could be so fun to get a mouth full of cum I love dick I love the challenge of a big cock to you sometimes it takes a little while to really work it consistently

      30. The reader should take to some other oral fixation boards. I’ve never been to a glory hole bar, but I’ve enjoyed some expert male knob polishing in a variety of countries.

      31. That is a long way from home You are always welcome to long island You can feel like you are in one of those places over sea and cum in a clean mouth

      32. I thought that this type of service was illegal in most countries around the world, but many countries are providing this type of service freely. There are no laws regarding this matter; it may affect the tourist who visits with their families.

      33. What would be the best place / spot to get that but with swallowing along with facefucking and deepthroat? I’m looking forward to buying your eBook of blowjob bar but if this doesn’t entail this question, it would be lovely if you could answer of course :)

      34. Hi,

        i’ve been looking for Hanabira Kaiten and i came across this place called Kingdom. Do you happen to know if they are foreigner friendly?

        Otherwise, do you know which foreigner friendly place offers Hanabira Kaiten?

        Thanks so much.

      35. In Patpong (Bangkok), I visited three Blowjob Bars (69 Bar, Bar of Yahoo, Top Light Bar), where you can get sucked or fucked in the mainroom. Sadly it’s very empty and sometimes there are only the owner and no girls available. Additionaly they close the door sometimes, when a customer is getting pleasured.
        Does anyone know a place in the world, where it’s normal to get sucked or fucked in the mainroom and where are more girls available? I look for something like Star of Lights.

        1. Thanks for the comment. Public oral action isn’t as common as it used to be. These days it’s mostly limited to the closed door BJ bars and gentlemen’s clubs of Pattaya. Cheers.

        2. Surely there are multibel Bars in Soi Cowboy that continue to provide this service: Fannys, After School, Jungle Jim, Toy Bar, Moonshine, upstairs in Dollhouse?

          And there are still closed Bars in soi 6, near the 2nd road junction?

          In general I think its a possibility in more places than people think. Thats my experience after + 350 party nights in Thailand.

          Cheers

      36. I wish TJ had some place like this. In TJ you have the low grade SG’s and the girls that working the clubs. The good looking girls that work in Hong Kong all want charge a minimum of $100 for any action. Personally I would not paying a good looking SG/SW a bit extra for a BJ.

        For some reason the girls do not like giving BJ’s. Many of the SG’s (street girls) will charge extra BJ. Most of the time the price is actually higher the full sex. The other downsides is most of the SG looks 7’s and below. Most girls will refuse to do BBJ and BJ’s usually lame. I am fortunate that I have this one hot looking girl that I see that does BBJ/Facials at a reasonable price.

        In western Europe you can find places like Euro’s center in Germany or the Window girls in UK Amsterdam & Belgium. I am planning a trip to Europe later this year. I am considering visiting Warsaw, Prague and Greece possibly . I would like to find some good looking girls in Warsaw & Prague that are willing to do just a BJ. I have considered visiting Brazil. But Europe seems much more exciting from tourism perspective.

        1. Thanks for the comment Charles. There are no real BJ bars in Europe even if some have been proposed in the past. On the other hand some women in windows, brothels and FKK will do a straight blow job for a set price. Cheers.

          1. There used to be some good looking SW’s that worked on Kurfenstrasse st. The Eros centers & the window girls in Belgium seem like another good option. I would like to find a good option in Prague or Warsaw.

      37. Hi Rockit,
        Thank you for your efforts!
        It’s kind of off-topic, but I would like to mention that Geneva isn’t the capital of Switzerland. The City of Bern is the capital.
