current best places AFTER dinner for 40+ crowd
Moderators:admin, Moderators
Please recommend the best places to go in downtown or old town after dinner for the 40+ crowd. I will be there on a "girls'" trip in early March. We saw the "nipple shots" at Mandala in October; pretty funny. Is Andale still good? The Zoo? The Cuban salsa place? Others?
Thank you!
Thank you!
Andale's is a standard visit for us - King David, Erik, and the staff take very good care of us and their customers that visit night after night, year after year. As for the 40+ crowd, i think you can go just about anywhere and have a good time... if the music sounds good to you, go on in and enjoy... party a little, and move on to the next stop... enjoy
Everyone over 40 seems to love Andale's. Went there twice last year. First time it was really late and it was dead but it was good. Met some interesting people. The second time it was packed, had to sit upstairs on the balcony and I have to say it was the only place where a waiter acted inappropriately and tried to sneak his hand down my skirt and slapped my a**. Needless to say after the quad accident I had the week before this was not appreciated! Almost took him out! LOL..We left and went to Roxy's and danced the night away. A nice seedy lookin bar. Loved it! Oh yea...went to the Cuban bar (can't remember the name) first and want to go back there this year. Looked like a really fun place.

Yes, Andale
We went there in March and had a blast. We got there early, right after sunset at CYC, for just one drink to check it out and stayed until at least midnight. Did someone say "ambience" or was it "ambulance"?
The Cuban salsa place is La Bodeguita. We've only heard the music at night from the street and of course it's fine. We usually end up there for the all- afternoon happy hour for a half dozen or so mojitos. I recommend the gazpacho as well.

We love Andales!
We are bringing our friends for their first trip to Puerto Vallarta! We are also in our 40's and will definitely be taking them to Andales! Can anyone give us advice where a great place to go for Superbowl Sunday? Also we are looking for a fun authentic place to go Salsa dancing. Thank you!

Thank you!
Thank you so much for the reply and searching sports bars that was very thoughtful. We have never been to El Torito however walked by there so many times we will also have to check that out. Another member reccommended also a sports bar off basillo badillo very appreciative for everyone's help!
Sports
Steves Sports Bar is the one on Basillo . Blakes Sports Bar in the hotel zone would be another option .
Chris ( just read your post ) you should of gave the pervy waiter a knuckle sandwich or a knee in the kabobs !

Authentic Salsa
Jota Be (JB) on Ascencio Medina (the main drag in the Hotel Zone) is supposed to be the hot spot for authentic dancing. Problem is it's so local it doesn't get down to business until 11 or so, when the locals get out of work. For 7 or 8 years now we've been saying we've gotta get there, but we always wimp out. The wimping out usually correlates with attendance of hora feliz around sunset.
Does anybody know if La Bodeguita has a dance floor?

Appreciate!
Thank you all for the great advice shall be a pleasurable time for sure! I also looked up on the internet for other sports bars, anyone ever go to Captain Ron's? Also saw Freddy Tucan's listed as a sports bar as well, I know they make a super fantastic breakfast but was curious about their sports bar. Really appreciate the replies also on the salsa dancing...only 14 more days to go!!!
