Loved watching everyone no matter how old get into the groove. - El Final: red room with DJ booth for more dancing fun - El Desvío: Super small 10-seat candlelit area slightly hidden - La Cubanita: where we parked ourselves to chill Lowlights: - Weekend nights gets very crowded with a line out front in the heart of the nightlife area in old town.

On a Friday we had a short line at 10:30 and it was packed.

However, it was nice that the indoor area was well attended and served beautiful drinks to enjoy. All in all, I wish that there was some sort of covering outside so that you could enjoy the view and the lagoon while sipping on a drink. But perhaps that's inevitable given the glaring sun. All in all, beautiful hotel and decor. I'd definitely be back.

Totally love the ambience inside cute little place with an absolutely gorgeous bar fun little tables to sit at and view of the street!

This cozy bar and tapas restaurant has a charming speakeasy vibe that immediately made us want to stay. There were four of us, and we shared three different tapas.

The atmosphere is cute, quaint, and incredibly comfortable, with cozy chairs and small tables that give it more of a lounge feel than a traditional restaurant. It was the perfect place to relax after exploring Old San Juan. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend stopping in. We loved everything about it and would absolutely go back!

I enjoyed a glass of their Chateau de la Pierre Gamay and mi amor opted for their Santurce Prison IPA. We both enjoyed our drinks and the wine was a pretty generous pour. We scored a nice two top overlooking the cathedral, right next to the railing. Service started out great but then disappeared when it was time to check out and pay, so we had to ask another server take our payment. Not a huge deal for us as we were not in a rush to leave, but maybe be mindful of this if you have another commitment after dining here. This bar is accessed via the Decanter hotel entrance. Definitely would return here. When we first arrived the atmosphere was a little suboptimal due to a large group of about 8, but once that group left, it quieted down and was mostly couples of all ages and small groups of 3-4.

From the moment we stepped inside the staff was welcoming and friendly. The girl that was taking care of us, very knowledgeable, asked us our predilection on hard liquor so she could suggest different cocktails. She nail it! I had the 'Walk in the Woods' which is their version of an Old-fashion, amazing! My friends had 'De La Tierra' with mezcal and Rose and Peper with vodka/gin. They loved them. All cocktails had A+ on presentation as well. Besides the amazing cocktails they also have a small sharing-style food menu. We ordered several things like the steak, chorizo turnovers, ceviche with malanga chips, octopus salad and beef carpaccio all of them delicious. This bar for sure will remain permanent on my list of favorite bars in Puerto Rico!

I'm pretty sure you've never experienced a bar quite like Bar Bero. The name is a play on the…read moreSpanish word for "barber," and the place is designed in such a way you feel like you're drinking in a working barbershop. There are even fun barber-related knick knacks hiding in plain sight, such as shaving brushes hanging from a chandelier. Keep an eye out and see what you spot. It's all dimly lit and much more romantic than it sounds. This would be a great date spot. They serve high-end cocktails, but great food, too. We enjoyed the fish tacos quite a bit. The drinks are the star, though, and their list is huge. The menu has two sections, one for classics (think, moscrow mules, mint juleps, old fashioned, aviations, corpse revivers, etc.) and one for house creations. The selection is impressive, but it's the quality that earns them five stars. Everything we tried was expertly mixed, but the consensus fave was the barbero viejo, an old fashioned variation with mole, maple syrup, and a flamed orange peel. It was delicious, very subtle with the sweetness, and potent, too. Highly recommended. Pro-tip: they keep the door locked at all times, even when they're open. If you see people inside, just wait patiently. They check vaccine status and mask status and require you to wash your hands with sanitizer before entering. It's first come first served seating, so we like to show up right when they open, which is supposed to be 7:00 pm. They aren't exactly punctual, though, so don't be surprised if they stay locked up until 7:15-7:30. Extra bonus points for the many drawings and photos of prodigiously mustachioed men throughout the space. My faves: Dali, or Mario/Luigi.
