Practical information : Take a break Djibouti
Timetable
In the mornings and evenings, when the weather is mild, the café terraces are overcrowded. It's a moment you'll want to savor too, at least to soak up the local atmosphere. Bars are generally open until midnight-2am. Opening days vary from one establishment to another.
Age restrictions
Djiboutians are Muslims and don't drink alcohol. They do, however, tolerate foreigners drinking it, provided they do so relatively discreetly. However, the sale and delivery of alcoholic beverages is forbidden in all districts in the interior of the country and in the working-class districts of the capital. But it is possible to find at least one cold beer in the structures that welcome foreign visitors.
What's very local
Coffee, tea and soft drinks are the most widely available beverages, but hotels and other establishments in the capital offer the major brands of European beer, as well as some Ethiopian beers, wine and other spirits. As a curiosity, Ethiopian restaurants offer various types of arakie, which can be used as a digestive: honey arakie, coffee arakie, herbal arakie (kosso)... But also Axoumit or Gouder wine, tella (beer made from sprouted cereals), tedj (light alcohol, a mixture of leaves and honey).
