This is THE place to check out in Jayuya! I was visiting friends and stopped by to check it out and…read moreimmediately fell in love! The vibe, the drinks, everything about this place is amazing! I also heard they will soon have some tapas so I'm excited for that! It's truly a hidden gem and another thing I loved was that they have lots of books around the place to check out. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. I really can't wait to come back and visit again soon!

AMBIANCE: Parking: Welcome to Old San Juan, it get get pretty busy - best to carpool or do public transportation. Seating: Indoor seating or private cabana set ups for groups. Room for a total of 100 people. Feels: Welcome to Old San Juan, a mix of touristy and culture. The spot itself is popular for locals and tourists. As for the space itself, what's unique about this spot is this place isn't just one bar. It's actually a series of connected rooms (about 6-7 different spaces), each with its own vibe - speak easy, dance, casual, house, live music and more! I'm surprised each room can contain it's sounds while maintaining its own energy. It feels like a speakeasy maze meets nightlife experience. Dim lighting, vintage touches, and just enough chaos in a good way. DRINKS/EXPERIENCE It was such a fun night, not sure what I ordered but there is an abundance of flavors as every room has different selections. But popular drinks if you're looking for guidance - lavendar mule, espresso martini, a classic mojito. They got the classic to your well-crafted cocktails. Some spots provide food while others is sip and chill or sip and dance. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Fast-paced but solid. Staff keeps up with the crowd and still manages to be engaging. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars! Good choices, reasonable prices, and a vibe like no other. As a gemini that can be quite indecisive, I enjoyed this spot - especially with its multiple options. This is more than a bar - it's an experience. A spot where the night can go longer than expected. TIPS: * Walk through ALL the rooms--you'll miss half the experience if you don't

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.

We were a party of 7 adults who wanted to enjoy the sunset, some food, and drinks, celebrating a birthday. Making a reservation was easy as was dropping off at valet. The rooftop now has an actual roof, which took away a lot of the open sky, but it is still open enough to see it without being affected by rain. Service was fantastic, as were drinks. On this trip, the appetizers were great and the main entrees were okay. From what I heard, the entire concept will be changing after they shut down in mid-November and re-open in December. I look forward to returning in 2026.

Nice rooftop bar with view overlooking the Cathedral (hence the name). We came here for drinks and…read morea light snack of croquetas. 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.

The drinks were so good we ordered doubles. The food was so good it started as 2 to taste and rolled into 4 as well. The ambiance was dark and moody but also comfy. The waitress was really sweet as well. Drinks and apps were absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be back next trip!

We started with the tuna pinchos, and wow--fresh, perfectly chunky, and packed with flavor. Then came the goat cheese quesadilla, which might honestly be one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life. Creamy, rich, and just unreal. I finally had the chance to try escargot for the first time--and now I feel completely spoiled for life. If that was my introduction, the bar has officially been set sky high. Even the Caesar salad stood out--crisp, balanced, and done exactly right (which is rarer than it should be). But the real star of the show for me? The guava and cheese bread pudding. I'm not exaggerating when I say I would 100% pay to have that Ubered all the way to me in Miami. It was that good. What blew my mind was the staff it looked like a hive of well trained bees just buzzing around this insanely packed room doing the best job. The general manager should be proud. Every bite felt intentional, elevated, and memorable. This place didn't just meet expectations--it completely redefined them. Spectacular doesn't even begin to cover it. BRAVO. Chefs kiss.

Half of the chairs were wet when we arrived, and the waiter had us wipe them down ourselves. On top of that, several menu items we wanted were unavailable, and one of our drinks never even came out, despite reminding the waiter multiple times. We also received an email only a few hours before our reservation saying it had been moved two hours earlier, even though nobody from the restaurant contacted us directly or confirmed the change with us. Overall, the atmosphere just wasn't pleasant and the service felt off the entire night. The food was alright, but definitely nothing memorable. The staff also seemed very unwelcoming, which added to the strange vibe overall.

It's a rustic chinchorro tucked deep in the mountains, and just getting there feels like part of the story; expect steep, narrow, winding roads. It's not the easiest drive, but that's what makes it special. Once you arrive, you're rewarded with incredible mountain and valley views, especially from the rooftop deck. At night, the stars and cool mountain air create a setting that's hard to replicate anywhere else. They have a good selection of food, drinks, snacks, and even cigars, so you can settle in and take your time. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and there's a genuine, laid-back vibe throughout the place. It feels authentic; like a true mountain hangout rather than a tourist stop. Definitely worth visiting if you enjoy adventure, scenic views, and local flavor.
