I would say about dead center!

I think that Stan & BM have already answered this for you, but I will attempt to answer it also.
YES.
In the road that the Clock is in there are a number of bars and restaurants (most left when exiting the clock but some to the right as well).
The so called 'Soi Falang' and the Robinson Centre are within walking distance (Out of the Clock, right to the top of the street, right there, then right at the lights, or just before the lights - will get you there).
The 'night market' or 'Centre Point' (as it is also known) is also within walking distance (But left at the top of the street rather than right for Robinsons).
Dwang Dang (not sure about the spelling, sorry) is a 'mainly' Thai night spot with live bands. And is at the very end of the road past Robinsons..
A look at the actual map of Udon (the Clock is clearly marked in square P11) will show almost anything you want to know....

OK twinkletoes, I know what you want :

You want a drink, before you buy you tap shoes at the market, and all that before you try to find the new gay bar!

I just wanted to say a great big thank you to Steve and Mali for, once again, a very wonderful stay at The Irish Clock. Stayed there the last part of December and first part of January and everything was great! Great room, great food, just overall relaxing!!

Really....a super big THANK YOU and will see you later this year!!

Have sent an email to the Irish Clock to book my stay.

I was going to stay at Top Mansion but after some advice and the fact that I want a comfortable bed for my 24 night stay, I have decided that the Irish Clock is the best option. Hopefully they will have a room available for my stay in Udon in May.

Should have checked whether smoking is permitted in the room.

Robtaff, always good manners to smoke on the Balcony I've found, stops the room from stinking, and I'm a smoker

My husband and I have just spent the last 19 days at 'The Irish Clock'. We found absolutely nothing to complain about (not that we were looking for anything, I hasten to add!)
It was a very enjoyable and comfortable break and we will have no hestitation in staying there again on our next visit to Udon.
Steve and Mali-great hosts, and staff very pleasant too. A photo I took of them before we left:

Thanks for having us.

Alan and Glen X
P.S. We were fasinated with the demolishing work going on next door and noted the progress each day, those boys certainly work hard for a living! =D>

Will do Aardvark. I can't stand passive smoke even when it's my own

Have received an email back so it is the Irish Clock in May for me.

Happy Days.

My brother and sister in law stayed in the Irish Clock a year or so ago when they visited us.

It is a decent place in itself, but unfortunately, and to my embarresment, is situated in down a dirty street in a farang morgering soi in Udon. Which is a shame, they have obviously spent a lot of money to make it a decent place, but the clientele sometimes inside and as soon as you step into the street.......

A year ago in the street that the Clock is situated in there were 3 bars just down from it & that was it. Apart from the Top Mansion that is.
I agree that it is a little more busy now but to call it a Falang mongering soi is stretching the imagination more than a little for certain.
The street itself is no more 'dirty' than most in Udon & at least the construction of bars & the new top mansion is cleaning it up, but I guess that will cause you more issues on the Falang Mongering front.
I really do wonder about the attitude of some people who are in Udon

Mmmm well did'nt you know where the Irish Clock was situated when they/you booked it.

BH is quite right over a year or so ago only a couple or 3 small, not in your face bars down that soi...not what you or anyone could describe 'as a farang mongering soi', you could blink and probably miss them.
Hope you never took your brother and sister in law to pattaya or phuket, you might possibly die of embarassment or start hyper ventalating by the sight of so many farang orientated entertainment places.

Maybe you are not quite so 'Happy-in-thai'.

chin up.
