DJIBOUTI SPORTS BAR & GRILL: SPORTS, BEER & FOOD

by DAO

OK. Its not even remotely cheap. That’s Djibouti. The lovely cold beer I bought (pictured) was more than $5. Meals are pricey, but the menu is huge. If you want American food served by attractive and friendly waitresses, this is the place. Its located in Place Menelik (one of the main squares) and you can even dine outside. They show world sports on big TV’s as you would expect.

All: Judgemental

by aggie85

The Djibouti cafes are just like any other cafe in any other location of the planet. They serve food, using either a waiter or waitress, and may provide some sort of general entertainment such as big screen TV or music. I have read through some travel comments from different sources and would like to provide an alternative view.People who go to night clubs will find what ever it is they are looking for be it in Djibouti, Moscow, London, Dallas, or Midwest Town USA. People will see whatever it is that they want to see based upon their own inner issues.It is true Djibouti is a poor country with many poor people. But this does not automatically make every woman who works as a waitress a prostitute. No more than one can say every wife is a legal prostitute. It is certainly very sad to see people be so judgmental. I have no doubt that the night clubs may have many of people in this...

Ethiopian Community Center: Inexpensive Meal Spot 1

by aggie85

I have read many postings about how expensive it is to eat or do anything in the capital city of Djibouti. For the most part everyone is right, if you are American or European it is very expensive to buy anything in Djibouti. Americans, and most Europeans are creatures of habit, and where they will congregate is also dictated by habit. They go to the tourist spots which the Djiboutian business community has universally established the prices, which are high. Is the food any better, nope sorry not true, your pocket is just getting tapped.The Ethiopian Community Center is not a tourist trap. It is local's hangout. The beer is the cheapest in town at 500 DF, and mixed drinks are 550 DF. The food is freshly cooked, which you can observe if you are concerned about 'safe'. Dinner and a beer will cost you no more than 1,000 DF, which is about $8.00. The atmosphere is great. You have a choice of...

La Virage: Quiet Cafe

by txaggie85

La Virage is located less than 1 mile east of the airport, in what I would call the French section. It reminds one of a converted garage bar. French of course is the predominate language, but there is some English being spoken now. This the the 2nd cheapest beer place in town, running at 600 df. What is my highlight are the 'Frits', aka french fries; best in town. It is a quiet out the way place, frequented by French families early in the day, then Foreign Legion later in the afternoon, and joined by some American contractors later. Recommend to use the bathroom before you come here...never has water. dress as you like

All bars in the principal street.: Take care!

by JAVATO

Nightlife in Djibouti is only for men. There are a lot of military guys from France.People from Djibouti don't have money to go out at night, all of the people who go out at night is for work. Taxi drivers, waiters, security and prostitutes.All of the bars are very similar. Men in the door for security, female waiters and girls working.Really you can go to take a drink without problems, girls are a little annoying but it's understandable. They are working hard for money. If you don't want anything with them You can say it them without problems.Most of them just only want you invite them for a drink. Prices are very expensives. One beer about 6 €. Take care with profesional sex, there is a lot of Aids.In general, nightlife is very safe. The problems come from military guys, when they are so drunked. How you want.

Djibouti: hazardous to your health

by dhen

Stay away from the clubs unless you are interested in playing sexual Russian roulette with Ethiopian prostitutes (which I definitely was not). You can't even have a drink there without them bothering you, and like the beggars it's a real hassle to get rid of them. This includes some of the restaurants, too. Cafe Mask is one bar/restaurant that is very clean and were prostitutes are not allowed to enter. no dress code anywhere

Ethiopian Encounter

by Jacque_the_moron

I am quite suprised when most of the girls we met in the clubs are from Ethiopia. Djibouti has some nightclubs, which also crowded with French army / Legionaires every weekend. Most of the clubs sell beers in DjF 1000 per bottle, which is considerably expensive (USD5.60). Well, evenmost of the clubbers are French but it is all Ameriacn music the clubs are playing. No dress code, u can even wear shorts and sandals. U'll be a weido if you put on your party dress like when you r in KL.

As you might expect ...

by hunwagner

Guess what?Being a major port city and army base, Djibouty City has lots of nightclubs full of prostitutes from Ethiopia and Somalia.Note that drinks are VERY expensive in these places!This is not my cup of tea so I can't give recommendations.
