The only problem with Puerta Del Sol is that if you like beer you are out of luck. They do sell Quisqeya (I refuse to agree that it qualifies as beer). I think the manufacturing of Quiqueya involves bottling water from the local river. Worst "beer" I have ever tasted anywhere in the world!
drink cuba-libres. LOL. yes, i see the problem. they only sell one brand of beer which is not very popular even among the doms.
Option #2: there is a sports betting bar (huge) on calle restauracion.the name has changed to betcris. they have like a million TV sets inside. just drink your beers and you don't have to place any bets. the sports betting bar is located on calle restauracion between calle mella and calle sanchez.
