Santiago de Compostela Nightlife

This tiny street starting at the other corner of Obradoiro Square is also famous for its bars and clubs. It is specially crowded in weekends during the University months.
It is called so (Veggies garden street) becaude there used to be many of those in this area. In fact, if you enter some side alleys you will still find potatoes and carrots here and there!

This pedestrian street is lively with many bars and terraces both by day and night. It is located in the old town, starting in the right corner of the Obradoiro square (if you look to the cathedral from the square).
Locals who come here for some drinks say they are "going to do the Paris-Dakar": there is a bar in the first block called "Paris" and the street ends in a bar called "Dakar" so doing the Paris-Dakar is going bar hopping all along the street, nice sport BTW and won't take you as much as the real race :-)))

This is a popular night club that sports different latin dances such as Merengue, Salsa and anything else with a beat. It doesn't really play hip-hop or techno, unless it has a jungle feeling to it. The theme is consistent.

Dress Code: Anything you want really.

If you want to try the best HOT CHOCOLATE in the world come to this place. You can also have caipirinha and all kinds of alcoholic drinks. The decoration is beautiful, completely different from what you are used to. You won't be dissapointed.

Dress Code: In Quintana's Square, go up the stairs and take the small street on the right. You will find a kind of small square on the left. There it is.

This bar is decorated as if it were a street. There's a crossroads, a trafficlight that goes res if you drink more than you should.... It has a terrace from where there are beautiful views of Monasterio de Belvis, but it is only open when the weather is good. You can play billard and order tropical drinks.

On the last part of our walk - " The Finisterre Extension " we met up with some Really Great people and often went out for a meal or a beer together after our days walking !! -- One of the Best things was to have a Beer or a Glass of good local wine then just Sit Back and watch the sun go Down !!!! --- Wonderful !!!!

When walking on the High Plains just East of Leon you will see some truly Amazing Sun Sets !! In fact at the Refugio at Berciano de Real Camino EVERYONE goes out en-mass to witness the Sun Set accompanied to a Gregorian Chant !!!!

Santiago is a students city so you will find a lot of night life.

On Thursday there are a lot of students and pilgrims. At weekends there's more nightlife than on Thursday.

If you want to drink 1-litre plastic glass drinks fo 6 € go to bar Ourense. It's quite cheap.
