Los 3 Cuernos

This bar was pretty cool, the bartenders were nice and personable. I got the most basic of basic : vodka soda and a medalla, can't go wrong. Atmosphere is cool, they have a bucket of things to decorate dollar bills with and add them to the wall, we put a T-Shirt shaped dollar up. It's worth the stop :)

I had high hopes for Los Tres Cuernos, but unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype. The service was incredibly slow—even though the bar wasn’t that crowded, it took almost 20 minutes to get our drinks. Speaking of drinks, they were overpriced and poorly made. My cocktail tasted watered down, and the beer my friend ordered was flat. The atmosphere didn’t help either. The music was way too loud, making it nearly impossible to have a conversation, and the lighting was so dim we could barely read the menu. To top it off, the place felt unclean—sticky tables and a weird smell in the air. Overall, it was a disappointing night. There are much better options nearby. I don’t think I’ll be coming back to Los Tres Cuernos.

I absolutely LOVED this bar! It was soooo beautiful; not to mention, Miguel was the best bartender I’ve ever met!! He took great care of my bf and I for my 21st birthday this week! There are various shot flavors that will knock your socks off! Will be returning soon :)

Los 3 Cuernos isn’t just a bar—it’s a rite of passage in Old San Juan. If you’re looking for a spot where the drinks are flowing, the atmosphere is electric, and the memories are as colorful as the walls, this is the place to be. Let’s start with the chichaitos—aka the reason you’ll never look at shots the same way again. These anise-infused rum shots come in flavors like tamarind, passionfruit, and coconut, and trust me, they’re dangerously delicious. You start with one, then suddenly you’re three flavors deep and debating which one’s the best (spoiler: they all are). The vibe? Perfectly chaotic in the best way. The walls are plastered with dollar bills signed by patrons, and the ceiling is decked out with vejigante masks that seem to cheer you on as you throw back another chichaito. It’s like being in a Puerto Rican carnival—if that carnival had amazing drinks and cool bartenders who make you feel like family. Speaking of the bartenders, they’re absolute legends. Friendly, funny, and always ready with another round or a story about the bar’s history. They’re part of what makes Los 3 Cuernos feel like more than just a place to grab a drink—it’s an experience. And if you need a break from the shots (or to soak them up), their sandwiches and Caribbean-style dishes hit the spot. Nothing fancy, just solid, satisfying food that pairs perfectly with the drinks and the vibe. Los 3 Cuernos is the kind of place where you go for a quick drink and end up staying for hours, making friends with strangers and laughing more than you have in weeks. It’s the heart of Old San Juan’s nightlife, and honestly, missing it would be your biggest regret. Cheers to an unforgettable time!

Awesome Old San Juan alley bar! I have been to the SJ area a half a dozen times (usually for the day on a cruise, but also for a long weekend) and I always end up here at some point. Just off of Plaza Colon (which is long overdue for a post-colonial rebrand/update; I vote for Pedro Albizu Campos or Roberto Clemente!), so it is just a short walk from the cruise terminal. Great mix of locals and tourists (and crew members) and cheap Puerto Rican cervezas and drink/shot specials! The long narrow bar is wallpapered with dollar bills and decorated with Puerto Rican art. Pick up some street food from Plaza Colon (or a mofungo from Yeyo's a few doors down) and stop in for a cold Medalla (or 3 or 5).

Favorite bar in all of PR so far. Always the nicest staff. They keep the drinks coming like no other. Thousands of artistic dollars on the walls. Great music and vibes. You gotta experience it. San Banito drink is fire!

What a great bar!! Awesome people! Awesome drinks! Giorgio and Tony were very accommodating and made me feel welcomed! Together with my whole family, we had a great time! Tony helped me get a dollar bill on the ceiling, signed by my family!! You must visit if your in old San Juan!! Don’t forget me Giorgio! I’ll be back!!

Love their shots and the menu of different flavors. A must visit when in San Juan.
