We arrived in Granada and grabbed a bite to eat, the pupusas and churrasco were both great choices. They also offered us an interesting mojito that was worth it!

This was the only bar I found with Jameson (although I didn't search very hard) and they had a very friendly staff as well.

Popped in here for a quick beer with my wife and some Nicaraguan friends. First thing what hit you was the stink of stale fat from the small kitchen in the corner of the courtyard. Next thing was the over-loud Latin rock music so we couldn't talk easily. Finally, what drove us out after a beer was the price -... More

All the tourists that drink to much combined with the most horrible pop music which is mixed together by someone who can not be named a dj. Accompanied by disapointing mojitos and slow bartenders. Would not recommand this place if you'd like to have a nice time.

Accommodating! We wanted to watch Obama on the State of the Union and - presto! Soccer became Washington DC. We had a great time.

Nice place to hang out and meet other people. Central location. Walking distance from most of the hotels in the area.

Went to this gringo-friendly place to eat. Service, drinks and surroundings were nice. Also the menu being in English was good. My husband liked his beef burritos, but my Hawaian chicken tacos were bland and they must've found the fattest chicken in Nicaragua, because there was very little chicken and a lot of fat in my tacos. Prices were ok... More

Went on a weds. night so it was pretty dead. The drinks were good and fairly priced. The place itself was nice and clean. Really big so you could tell on busy nights it gets pretty packed. The music on the other hand was horrible. For the first hour i was there they played nothing but reggaeton, then ten minutes... More

Kelly's Bar is located one street off the Calzada. The greatest thing about Kelly's is that it has 2 very large barrel windows with 2 seats each that overlook the street, so you can sit and watch the world go by at a height just about a foot above most people, the feeling is like being with them as they...
