Close By

Hush (Calle de Vara del Rey, 15) is a sultry bar and miniclub where a better-dressed English crowd shows up to let loose on the dance floor.

Bar Colon (Calle Colon, 1) appeals to a mostly international crowd and features a wide variety of rock and indie music blasted at mind-boggling volumes.

Kedamos (Calle de Vara del Rey, 2, next to the Pacha shop) is a subterranean bar and one of the best-kept local secrets. Situated on the fringes of the West End, the bar is identifiable only by a sign placed well above eye level and a sliver of a door that leads patrons down to a small bar room where good-natured regulars and bartenders make everyone feel at home.
