Baluarte San Francisco Javier
My advice is to check out local happy hours on weekdays. I found some great drink deals that saved me a few bucks while enjoying the view.
If you can, bring some snacks! The food options are limited and can be pricey, so I ended up wishing I packed something to munch on.
I suggest visiting Baluarte San Francisco Javier around 4 PM. You’ll catch the sunset, and the vibe gets super chill as the evening goes on.
Mirador Gastro Bar
I suggest getting there around sunset for stunning views. The colors in the sky are awesome and you’ll get that perfect photo op
If you're looking for a quieter experience, try visiting on a weekday. I felt like I had the place to myself, which was amazing!
My advice is to check the weather ahead of time. It can rain unexpectedly, and you don’t want to miss those views!
I think it's better to make a reservation if you’re going on a weekend; I went during peak hours and had to wait a bit.
Alquimico
Try the signature cocktails; they’re a bit pricey, but honestly worth it. Splurge a little—trust me, you won't regret it!
Cafe del Mar
Don't skip the appetizers—they're surprisingly delicious! I ordered the seafood platter, and it was fresh and paired perfectly with the drinks.
Keep an eye on the live music schedule. I stumbled upon a fantastic local band when I visited—totally transformed the vibe!
Plan ahead and check the weather; if it’s rainy, they have some covered areas but it’s always nicer when it’s clear.
Cafe Havana
If you can avoid it, don't go on weekends unless you love a full house. I went on a Friday and it was hard to move, but the energy was electrifying!
I recommend trying the mojitos; they're reasonably priced and super refreshing! I did try the local beer, but the mojitos stole the show for me.
La Regatta
If you're looking to save some money, consider going for lunch instead of dinner. The prices are lower, and you still get great portions.
My advice is to check out their dessert options! The passion fruit mousse is a must-try; I wish I had saved room for it.
Make sure to try the coconut rice with any seafood dish; it's delicious and local! They often run out later in the night, so don’t wait too long
Mister Babilla
Watch for the happy hour! If you can, plan your visit around it for some great deals on drinks, which was a lifesaver for me.
La Mulata
El Baron
Dolce Vita
If you want to save some cash, I suggest grabbing a few drinks at a nearby bar before heading in. They often have cover charges that can add up, but the vibe inside is totally worth it once you get settled!
