Fun and entertainment Pacific Coast

If you feel like crossing the river, which we recommend since the opening of the Aerovia, which offers a real trip in itself, here is a small address at the entrance of Duran, a district that is gradually opening up to tourism. Open from early morning to late evening, it will be the ideal stopover when you arrive on this side of the Guayas. You will be able to eat good local cooking or simply drink a small cerveza there by taking council with the owner for your visit of this district which conceals still small secrecies! We recommend it.

In this cult place with a rustic decor (wooden tables, tavern atmosphere), as much appreciated by tourists as by locals, you can listen to jazz and blues music. The program is very wide and a different group comes to play here every night. The prices depend on the event. As a meal, you will discover the famous hamburger of the house: La Hamburguesa Campeona, 180g of delicious meat and a surprisingly light yoghurt-based sauce. Very good place.

The flag of Ecuador decorates the pretty façade of this rustic bar. Inside, there is everything, we feel the experience of the place. Many vinyls remind us that this place has been a music place for many years, so much so that in October 2021, for the restart of the district, which had suffered a lot from the lack of tourists during the pandemic, the vinyls were in the spotlight for a whole evening for the greatest happiness of the turntable lovers. The Taberna is also one of the favorite bars of the locals on the evening of football match! Atmosphere guaranteed.

On the streets a few night bars that distils their music until late in the night.

Disco atmosphere, video. Like À, there is more to drink a beer than to dance.

Although the facilities are not as comfortable and modern as the larger theatres in the city, this small theatre offers excellent moments of laughter with the works of the theatre company "La Mueca", some of which reflect the idiosyncrasies of Guayaquileño and the Ecuadorian people; a good place to share a pleasant moment with friends or family. Easy to reach by car or public transport, it is located in a traditional residential area of the city. Concerts and contemporary shows

The burgers stand out from the crowd, they are hearty and very well seasoned. Karaoke is organised every week and many artists come here to perform live on Fridays and Saturdays. It's a very busy place, you have to be patient. On football match nights, the place is packed.

Opened 20 years ago by Arturo Zea, who owned a small bar called Arthur's café, this place quickly became well known to tourists because of its ideal location (overlooking the river, with a beautiful view of the city), to go for a drink or a typical meal (nothing exceptional in terms of restaurants, alas). The bar is housed under high ceilings in an old house full of charm and nooks and crannies, decorated on the theme of the navy. You feel good here, between land and sea, in the heart of the city.
