Brass Cactus
Not at all prickly, the Brass Cactus serves big plates of American pub fare with the odd traditional dish thrown in (dishes $8 to $22). Children will find lots to eat (burgers, fries, chicken fingers) and the down-home decor (think license plates hanging from the walls) will give them plenty to look at. Around 11pm on weekends the Cactus gets more of a club vibe, with patrons coming in to drink rather than eat. Usually there’s live rock music, at least during the high season.

El Flamboyán Café
Rub some chalk onto your pool cue and twist the top off your Medalla beer (preferably by hand); yes, the Flamboyán is one of those rustic open-sided seaside bars with heavy stone tables and perennially popular pool tables that serves simple food and $2 bottles of beer. The local gang shows up on weekend evenings to witness the sporadic African drumming, live salsa and reggaeton.

El Batey
Not a large place, but seemingly big enough to accommodate the majority of Culebra’s population at weekends, when locals swing by to shake a leg to reggaeton with a bit of salsa and meringue mixed in. During the week the place is esteemed for its cheap burgers, cold beers and pool tables. It’s situated on the road north out of Dewey toward the airport.

Happy Landings
Planted at the end of the airstrip, Happy Landings is a drinks-only dive these days (it used to serve food). Though hardly a font of pulsating nightlife, it may be worth sticking your head around the door to see if anything spontaneous is happening.

Al’s Mar Azul
Al’s Mar Azul shelters the ghosts of Charles Bukowski and Ernest Hemingway and is the nexus of local gossip. Locals come to play pool, and expats come to drink…and drink.
