…or at least that’s what everybody says. Of course we agree and that’s why we decided to share our highlights of the Christmas time in Old San Juan.
Of course the parties, where family and friends are coming together to celebrate. One of our favorites are the parrandas, groups of people walking around the city with instruments and their famous songs that everybody can join in on. The plaza is filled with people, music and kids with their firecrackers until late at night. Talking about the plaza you have to mention …

Residentes del Viejo San Juan abogaron hoy para que se active un sistema de transporte masivo durante los fines de semana en ese sector, a raíz de las congestiones en el tránsito durante gran parte del periodo navideño.
La petición fue hecha luego de que ayer, viernes, en la noche las autoridades policíacas tuvieron que desviar el tráfico a la altura de El Capitolio y, como consecuencia, muchos negocios nocturnos tuvieran que cerrar sus puertas …
Because we have the place for you… Café Cola’o.
We have taste tested much of the coffee around Old San Juan, but this one wins the prize by far.
In 2006 Café Cola’o was opened by local entrepreneur Erica Reyes, using coffee grown in the mountains of Puerto Rico. This local grown coffee has a smooth, full-bodied flavor, which attracts tons of locals, as well as tourists to the little Café which is located at Pier by the ferry to Cataño.

Pepperoni
There are various places in Old San Juan where you can enjoy a pizza. But if you’re like me, you pledge allegiance to one place, under god, indivisible, for cheapness and hunger for all. To me this place is Pizzicorre, located on Calle Luna #255, a friendly neighborhood pizzeria that serves great slices at amazing speed.
I decided to go and do some “hands-on investigating”. And the first thing that caught my eye was that the place is a little on the small side. Making take out orders the most convenient, …
Don Pablo
Here we have one of the coolest bars in Calle del Cristo on Old San Juan, sporting its new Electronic/Industrial club redesign. Don Pablo has become one of the most stand out bars in the zone by always keeping the party into the late hours and always having thumping music on deck. And I’m sure that the huge drink size and their comfortable prices also have something to do with its success.
I’m sure that they get straighter as you get drunker
The nightclub ambiance is ever present, even though …
