Nightlife

A solid pick for any night of the week and a great place to start the night out:

Areia Colnial Chill Out, Calle/Hortaleza, 92
(Metro Alonzo Martinez or Tribunal or Chueca)
Open everyday from 11am to 4am
www.areiachillout.com
This place is money. The dishes they serve range from Moroccan to Venezuelan and the musical guests are diverse but almost always solid. The atmosphere is chill and it gets packed after sunset with a hip crowd of cool people. The list of cocktails is looooong and if you’re looking to get Fired up, they have absinthe ;). If you’re planning a big birthday party or looking for a cool venue to rent out, look no further.
