One of my personal favorites. Hard to find if you don't know what you are looking for. Has both…read moreindoor and outdoor spaces. It is a great place to go for a drink and dance after dinner in Bellavista. Very fun and easy going crowd with great music by both international and Chilean DJ's as well as live bands (a great escape from all the reggaeton which is so popular in chile). They have two dance floors and one is more tecno focused while the other is funk mixed with classic pop (depending on the night). I have always had a great time here and my friends and I have danced until the wee hours of the night. They also have great cocktails and happy hour - they even have servers up until around 12am where you will then have to fight your way to one of the bars. Tip: Bring your ID - I know that is a given, but I have gotten super lax about it and if you don't have one on you, the bouncers wont let you in. Also, if you come before 11pm you can get in free - otherwise you will have to pay. Keep an eye out on their Twitter or FB page as a lot of times you can get in free by adding yourself to the guest list.

Who doesn't like their piscola served with a well sculpted six pack? Well I sure do and Exbordel…read morewill serve it to me. This bar is risky they have a pole for dancing right in the center and an upstairs VIP lounge (perfect for B-days or exclusive parties). They have an all night every night two for one special. Why not start off with two piscolas right off the bat for the price of one. The have karaoke and random sexy dances by the sexy men who work there. This is technically a gay bar but I like to go with my girl friends or my guy friends for some cheap drinks and to get the night going with something a little different. They have a variety of seating from a typical round table, to cozy pillow covered benches. The lighting is low and very party like.

Whether I can fully recall or not, my adventures at Miércoles Po' definitely left a mark on my…read moreexperience in Santiago. WARNING: Miércoles Po' has a reputation to be a hotspot for pickpocketters looking to snatch items from drunk gringas (me included) and as previously warned by a fellow Yelper, a place where a crazy amount of Chilean men pay to "get to know" foreigners (again, me included). The parties, or "carretes" are hosted every Wednesday (miércoles) at various venues throughout the city and are continuously packed with both locals and foreigners around the typical college age (19-24). Details for each event are released each week via their Facebook page. Drinks are moderately priced, however I definitely advise to pregame as selection is minimal and bar service wait time can be extremely long. It's definitely a dance club atmosphere and you shouldn't show up if you don't like to dance! The playlists range from current regaetton hits and house to occasional US rap and hip hop. Get Po'ed.

Oh, Miercolespo. We have had some good times together - your parties that allow us foreigners to…read moreget to know Chile through events like these are appreciated. I have been to most of the night clubs I know thanks to you. I do have to do my do diligence and warn my fellow gringas about the crazy amount of Chilean men who pay to get in so they can "get to know" foreigners. However, if you are into that kind of thing and looking to get to know more people, this party is for you. This event takes place every Wednesday (except for holidays), and usually changes location (the idea was to make it harder for those not in the know to get in) however, over the years it has grown super popular for both foreigners and nationals alike. The parties are always over the top fun - a lot like US college parties but that you can legally drink (probably one of the factors why it is so outrageous fun). They have themed parties (only something us gringos do) but it has been brought here and now a lot of people take part. Overall, good time had by all! Plus you get promos and sometimes even free drinks when with this group. Check out their FB group for promos and their latest event.
