Practical information : Take a break Dominican Republic

Timetable

Bakeries, cafeterias and ice cream shops are generally open all day, until 7pm, 8pm, 9pm, or even later, depending on the time of day. However, there are no set rules here and to avoid going out of your way, it's best to make a quick phone call. The bars, even more fashionable than the discotheques, in the capital as well as in Santiago or Las Terrenas, generally open their doors during the day, but tend to fill up around 6-7pm and close around 1 or 2am, sometimes later.

Budget & Tips

In the capital's cafeterias, the price of a breakfast is around $200/250, while a cocktail is generally $250/300. You can usually get by for less when you go to more typical addresses. As for Santo Domingo, it is particularly nice to have a drink in the evening in the colonial zone. Not only is it far from the frenzy of the Malecón, but the monuments are wonderfully highlighted by a clever play of lighting. Opposite the Alcazar, Plaza de España, all the bars of the Atarazana are pleasant. The Condé also has welcoming terraces.

Age restrictions

Minors, i.e. people under the age of 18, are officially not allowed to consume alcohol in the Dominican Republic.

What's very local

On weekends, and even during the week in the larger cities, it is at the local colmado - a typical grocery store selling all sorts of goods (food, household products, etc.) - that Dominicans go to feast to the sound of merengue music. This is the place to go for a taste of the local atmosphere.

Kids

Children are generally welcome just about everywhere in the Dominican Republic, except perhaps in some adult-only clubs in the beach areas.

Smokers

While smoking is prohibited in gourmet shops, cafés and bars generally have airy spaces or terraces where customers can smoke
