Great mojitos at a decent price, but narrow space. Avoid when you see a big crowd (if you're not into butts and elbows shoving you around)

Prepare to pay €5 for a beer and €8 for a full glass. The DJ started to remix some oooooold Spanish songs with some heavy metal. Weird things were happening. There was also a super pointy table that took out a few shins. The bartender looked like he wanted to die. I was able to leave but my heart went out to him. Stay strong bro.
