Pub El Pirata

We were put onto the bar by some lady on the street but for 10 euros we got a shot, a drink and beer. Katrina was the most fun and beautiful bartender, very accommodating and helpful. Good vibes, good reggaeton!

This place is out to scam you. The drinks were already overpriced but they then tried to charge my account €450. Fortunately my card alerted me and denied it and I immediately left.

Be careful. I advise against going here. There are so many other places nearby. El Pirata is dangerous. I was robbed here (felt my wallet being pulled from my pocket). After turning to question the people behind me, i was punched repeatedly in the face, knocked to the ground and beaten while down. The bar security kicked me out as though I was in the wrong and not the victim. The management offered no assistance to me despite having been assaulted in their venue. I emailed the bar the following day to lodge a complaint but received no response. Besides this, I can also confirm that the many people in the reviews mentioning women seemingly in commission to try to convince guys to buy very expensive drinks for them is true. The pattern of behaviour and types of dribks is exactly as other reviewers have mentioned. (Edit to remove speculation and replace with underlying concern:) This experience gives me serious concerns about the general safety standards, procedures and oversight in this venue. I’d hate for anyone else to go through the night i had here. I would suggest to save yourself some grief and go somewhere else. Edit: the response from the owner further shows their lack of regard or care for safety or justice of their patrons. And to be clear, I am not accusing the bar of involvement, but rather saying given the experience and the way the incident was dealt with, I’m concerned about what measures are in place to prevent theft and protect patrons. There are other reviewers stating they were robbed. I would welcome and invite the owner to respond to my email as a responsible venue seeking resolution and safety, as promptly as they have attempted to defend their optics by attacking my character. Edit 2: the owner changed their response, modifying their narrative. I entirely reject their accusations and maintain that the account I have given is true.

I recently visited bar with friends, hoping to enjoy a fun evening of drinks and dancing. Unfortunately, what started as a promising night quickly turned into a frustrating experience that I feel compelled to share. Upon entering, we paid a 10-euro cover charge, which included a complimentary shot. We were having a great time dancing near the bar when a group of friendly girls approached us. They struck up a conversation and seemed genuinely nice, so when they asked if I wanted a shot that was already poured and on the bar, I thought it was just for me. They then asked my friends if they wanted a free shot, and they all agreed. I ended up paying for my shot, thinking it was a small price for a fun night. Things took a turn when the same girls later asked if I wanted a glass of champagne. I said yes, and again, I paid for it, thinking it was all part of the fun. However, after leaving, I checked my bank statement and was shocked to find that I had been charged 40 euros for the shots, an additional 60 euros for nothing, and a staggering 120 euros for the glass of champagne! I immediately reached out to the bar via email, hoping for a refund, but I am yet to receive a response. This experience has left me feeling scammed and frustrated. I urge anyone considering a visit to this bar to think twice. It’s clear that this place preys on tourists, and I wouldn’t want anyone else to go through what I did. If the bar do refund me, I will be happy to change my review to positive, but until then BEWARE, DO NOT GO THERE!!! Update: it took some time, but eventually they were helpful and gave me some of the money back. Cheers

SCAM!! The bartenders work with the girls and they will try to charger more money than what they drink is worth. They wait until you are drunk then they charge your card 400$-500$ dollars in drinks the entire staff is involved in the scam and you can read the Google reviews of several people that this has happen to. Please ask for receipts from the bartenders.
