  1. A

    Platea

    With exposed brick walls and a small, intimate stage, this jazz club wouldn't feel out of place in Greenwich Village, minus the Spanish of course. As the night wears on, a more mixed crowd is attracted to this swinging spot, making for some excellent people-watching over expertly crafted mojitos.

    Wine Bar

    This stylish Italian bistro showcases the fruit of the vine, with over 200 selections on offer from around the globe. Accompanying the wine list are appetizers like smoked salmon with toasted almonds and carpaccio with capers. Live jazz starts at 21:00 most nights of the week.

    Zanzibar

    Nightlife in Boquete is about as common as a bad cup of coffee, though this low-key jazz bar has the cure for what ails ya'. Your best chance of hearing live music is on weekends, though most of nights of the week you'll find a friendly face sitting at the bar.

  4. Foster’s Waterfront Bar & Grill

    One of two bars-on-a-pier jutting out over the water, Foster’s has occasional live music and the best dancing in town. It’s a bit ‘gangster, ’ as one local put it, but you can’t beat the location.

  5. El Matchico

    A comfortable, relaxed spot to get your drink on, with a 'What if the Aztecs discovered Europe first?' theme. Jazz music, sometimes live, and French bocas keep things interesting.
