1949 Hostel Bar
This is a good place to meet up with other travelers. Once they boot you out of there, you'll have a gang together to roam the streets - either down to the port area for more drinks at the hip, minimalist Soho and Hop! or the slightly more laid-back Moby Dick. All stay open as long as there's a crowd and sometimes have live music on weekends.

Café del Florencio
This historic café has seen better days, but the faded elegance of its 1870s décor makes it an appealing choice for beer or coffee.
