This is an attractive pub-restaurant, designed in the style of an old wooden sailing ship. Aquarium-like panels emit blue-tinged light, atmospherically illuminating all three levels of the establishment. The clientele consists of young adults between 24 and 35 years of age, who tend to use the place as a launch pad for their nightly shenanigans. For the hungry there is a selection of pizzas, meat skewers and marinated fish dishes, which can be accompanied by a local beer costing CLF 1200, or an imported brew at CLF 1700. A bottle of wine comes to around CLF 4000. On Friday live Latin music is played from 10pm onwards, and each night there is a half-price Happy Hour between 8pm and 11pm.
Something different is offered every night at this pub, which tries hard to give its customers a good time. From Thursday onwards, things really start to heat up, starting with tropical music and salsa classes, and continuing with live musical acts all weekend. Throughout the week, you can practice your vocal skills at the only Karaoke machine in town. There is a wide range of drinks on offer, accompanied by either cheese or vegetarian selections, ideal for sharing in a group. This bar opens at 8p from Mondays to Saturdays.
This bar has made a serious impact on the Vina del Mar nightlife scene. There's plenty of space with room for up to 2000 people, spread over two floors, with state-of-the-art illumination, and a stage for live performances. One of the main attractions is that drinks are sold for cost price: Entrance costs CLP3500 for men, but women enter free of charge up to 1am.
In the basement of a traditional old port building, which dates back to the end of the nineteenth century, you will find this popular venue, frequented by the local youth so as to drink and dance the night away. The dance floor itself is quite spacious, used by a clientele that generally borders the late teens, early twenties. At the weekends you are more than likely to be entertained by a live band performance, and Wednesday night is dedicated to poetry. A bottle of beer comes to CLF 800. It is open daily from 10a.
Groups of locals, passing mariners and visitors to the city, have been frequenting this traditional Valparaíso tavern since 1896. It is located in one of the port's central squares –Plaza Aníbal Pinto– next to the entrance to both the Alegre and Concepción hill districts, and is one of the main hotspots for the local bohemian nightlife. There are regular performances of tango and other Latin American music, but the house group, made up by an accordionist, pianist, guitarist and singer, really do look like extras from an Almodóvar film. Traditional beverages include the Cola de Mono (Monkey's Tail), derived from milk, spirit, coffee and sugar. A beer comes to CLF 1000 at night, CLF 600 during the rest of the day, and they offer a hearty albeit cholesterol-saturated choice on the food menu.
This delightful little café has a friendly, warm atmosphere and probably the best cup of coffee in the city. Besides being your typical neighborhood café, the establishment also specializes in the sale of vintage clothing. No where else can you enjoy a cup of fresh java and pick up a cool vintage shirt to wear out. The owners pride themselves in putting the needs of their customers first and making sure every patron is well taken care of. On certain nights you can find live music acts performing on their tiny stage.
