The sign
Stacey H.

One of the hotel staff members told us she starts all of her best nights out with shots at 3 Cuernos (shout out to Estefania!), so that's exactly what we did on our first night out in San Juan. We heard this bar specialized in tasty shots called Chichaitos, made using anise liquor and rum. I don't know what we expected, but our expectations were blown way out of the water. The flavors were wild! But surprisingly - and dangerously- yummy! We tried many... MANY.. flavors over two visits and our favorites were Cookie Dough, choco pique (spicy Nutella), maní pique (spicy peanut) and both coffee flavors (cafe puya and cafe espresso). So so so cheap too! This is definitely a "first stop" kind of place. There's not much to do except chat with the staff and try out new flavors - and read the dollar bills stapled to the wall by past patrons. But I wouldn't skip it! It's one of a kind!

Hole in the wall bar with a really neat atmosphere and decor, stopped in for a drink and happy we did!

The vibe here was great. Music and drinks what else can you ask for. When you walk in its kind of small but in the back there is a sitting area so you don't feel like you are on top of one another. With COVID I surely didn't want anyone on top of us. You have to try their made in house shots. We tried every flavor and some of them even twice. They were so good I ended buying a small bottle of the passion fruit flavor. I absolutely loved it here. If you want good cheap drinks and good vibe this is the place to be.

Super dope bar in old San Juan. Great drinks. Mostly a younger crowd - like college students but diversifies later in the night.

Bar area covered in $1 bills.

What a cool little bar! The walls are covered with $1 bills and the bartender gives you markers to color your own. They have the cheapest drinks in San Juan - $1 shots and $1 Medalla. While we were there several locals came in and the bartender was very friendly. Definitely give this place a try if you're in Old San Juan.

Beer and $2 shots.

This was sort of a surprise bar we found while walking around OSJ. It certainly looks more of a locals bar. They do advertise their $2 shots a lot and the bartender explained that these are actually made in house and come in a variety of flavors. My hubby and I each one and it was very good. This bar is a totally chill spot to come with a group of your friends and just hang out or maybe pregame before moving on to the next bar.

Mucho Dinerooooooooooo

Aye! Loved this damn place. Saw a sign about fresh lemonade from the door, which also can be made "hard", made us venture over. We walked in and were thrown off a bit cause its so quirky. Had all kinds of money that's written on all over the wall and its just funky as hell. We ordered from the cutest little bartender (cannot remember her name though) and took a seat near the window then my wife went towards the back of the bar and called me over to sit back there. Looked up and there were two signs with a bunch of different "chichaitos" flavors which loosely translates to "quickie". These are mini shots so we had a bunch! Dont do the cherry cause it takes like cough syrup but the rest are great. Strong as hell, go down quick and burnnnnnnnn. The spicy ones are absolutely outrageous! Ginger And lemon - stoopid!!! Don't forget the honey! I walked in with a cold & walked out clear as a whistle, at least for the first couple of hours. Definitely plan to go back next trip to old San Juan - fo sho!

Hole in wall bar frequented by locals. Our server at Cafe Puerto Rico pointed us in this direction last night. Chichaitos shots are a mix of white rum and anise liquor which are then flavored. List of flavors on board. Certain ones are singles, others are doubles. Hub and I hate anise/licorice flavored stuff, but we enjoyed a few of these shots....when in Puerto Rico...... Chased with a Medalla = refreshing

Cocotazo shots so tasty !

As a couple of somewhat lost gringos we found this place to be really friendly with the cheapest beer. Thumbs up.

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

I first discovered La Grieta approximately two years ago during a brief stop in Old San Juan. The…read moreatmosphere and warmth of our initial experience was so great that I made it a deliberate mission to find it again when visiting recently. We were thrilled when we finally walked through the door again after wracking our brains to remember our favorite spot in Old Town. Upon entering, we were greeted by a young woman who, mentioned it was her very first day as an assistant to the bartender. Despite being brand new, she was warm, engaged, and genuinely welcoming, excited for us that we had made it back after several years, and impressed with our efforts. Shortly thereafter the bartender on duty approached us mid-conversation, visibly irritated. When I mentioned that we hadn't yet decided on drinks but were being well taken care of in the meantime, she interrupted sharply to bark at us that she was the bartender and the ONLY one who could help us. The tone was unwelcoming enough that after a moment, my companion and I determined that we would prefer to move on and left without ordering. The atmosphere is truly special, and it deserves to be matched by the experience guests receive at the bar. Our experience was simply not the vibe that night, and I truly was disappointed FOR the new hire who was doing what she should in engaging us until we could be served. I sincerely hope to return on a future visit to San Juan and to rediscover the experience that first brought me back to La Grieta.

It's small, loud, a little gritty, and completely inviting--exactly what a true dive bar should be. The walls are covered in graffiti and stickers from years of visitors leaving their mark, and honestly, that's part of the magic. You can't help but look around and smile at all the personality packed into such a cozy space. One of my favorite details? Look over to the right corner of the bar and you'll spot what looks like a vintage cash register straight out of the 1800s. Then right in the middle of the bar you've got the modern point-of-sale devices. The contrast is hilarious and perfect--old-school charm meeting modern bar life. There's a pool table, plenty of seating for such an intimate spot, and yes, a restroom inside (always appreciated in Old San Juan!). But what really makes this place stand out is the service--the staff is fantastic, welcoming, and they pour seriously strong drinks that are also refreshingly affordable. This is the kind of place where you come for one drink in the afternoon and suddenly the whole evening disappears in great conversation and good vibes. If you're wandering the streets of Old San Juan and want authentic dive bar energy, great drinks, and a place full of character, this is absolutely a must-stop. Highly recommend.

Always a good time here. Love the grunge vibe. The Pina Batida was delicious! Service was friendly!read more
