    Great place for cover bands. Hard liquor is very overpriced, but if you stick with beer, you're good. Audio is really good. They have a dress code though. Don't show up on flip flops and shorts. Kinda weird for a country with 85-90 degree average weather year round...

    The best bar with live music shows from Monday thru Saturday (reservations required). Decent food and lots of alcoholic drinks to choose. Nice ambience.

    The one who calls this an Irish pub has never been in a pub in Ireland. Such a pub would welcome anyone to sit on any free seat. This is classy-ish live music venue with dress-code and all tables of almost empty restaurant reserved to someone yet to arrive. I was put to sit in empty backroom terrace and no service offered at all. I left being confused.

    The furthest thing from an Irish bar. Yuk. Drinks had little to no alcohol. Food arrived at different intervals and was salty and soggy. The dumplings were slightly okay. Horrible. Go somewhere else.

    Nice place to go out, grab a bite and drinks. If you're into music they have a wide variety of shows everyday and they share the monthly activities on their social media. Great sound and good customer service.

    I decided to visit Republik on 6/10/22 during my stay in El Salvador and I can said the following: Pros: The smoke pork ribs were excellent. The waiter that served me was great. Negative: Becareful on day of the week visiting, as the restaurant host's different events each night, and the crows various with the event.

    My friends and I were turned away because we were white foreigners. We were all dressed in at least 300 dollars in designer clothes that satisfied their dress code. The door guy told us they were at capacity, we looked in the window and they weren't half full. Then 3 El Salvadoran local girls came up and he let them in right in front of us. Between the three of us we were ready to spend 500 to 1000 dollars. Go to rooftop bar, they greeted us with open arms and we bought a bottle of Don Julio anejo. They didn't discriminate so they got our business. They shook our hands and told us to have a good time. Republik gives El Salvador a bad reputation. I've been all over the world and never been turned away because I was a white foreigner. I'm embarrassed for them.

    This place is okay if you enjoy indie rock bands. The staff was great and always on top of servicing you. They had great selection of beer and apps. They also have local beer product nearby which was something exciting to promote.

    The place is good but the service is slow. I haven't visited in a long time and it seems like it needs some "love".

    Went here hoping for some Irish beers and an Irish coffee. At entry the service wasn't great and they didn't have a single Irish beer nor Irish coffee... The furniture looked kind of irishish though 🤩✌🏼️ Not recomended!

    Fun bar! Got to see a very good Led Zeppelin cover band. The downstairs bar had a limited variety of drinks so the bartender took me upstairs to their private bar and they had anything you could want!

  • 4/5 Mich F. 1 year ago on Google
    The music is good, there are improvements that can be made on the sound system but the show is really cool. It's a nice local place, small though but you can have a great time here. As far as I know, you need reservation to assist.

😐 Beer was okay. Food presentation was not okay. Do not serve me food in a dog bowl. Especially when you offer dog treats/food as a menu option. Offering to bring me a regular plate after was not sufficient. I paid for food I did not consume. Not coming back.

😐 Great ambience with very fair prices ($1.50 each bottle of beer) and wide variety of "bocas". The only issue I had was related with the men's bathroom because is quite small
