La Factoría began as a nice, quiet speakeasy . But several expansions - and an infusion of Puerto Rican passion and music - has seen it become an epic venue. Pick your favorite room and enjoy!

Come here to get away from the cruise ship zombies or when you can't listen to any more salsa . Great vibe, fancy drinks, delicious bites, and hip indie music . Mostly locals, from what I gathered.

Mayuresh Gaikwad

A hipstery, speakeasy to hit with your crew. Warm up with a few cocktails in bar1, get cozy in wine bar2, groove to live salsa in bar3 to finally trip on to New York'sque house music in bar4. Cheers

Hijos de Borinquen is a handsome and delicious cocktail ; yet you can’t go wrong with any of the choices. Great vibe, beautiful interior . One of the greatest bars I have ever been. Love this place.

Timothy Appnel

Great cocktails in a vibrant, eclectic & classy scene every day of the week. Don’t stop at the first bar . There are 6 rooms with their own theme and vibe. I enjoyed an Old Cuban in La Cubanita.

Open the wooden door slightly behind the bar in the first bar , go into bar 2 (wine bar ), and then again there is another slider door into bar 3 (music later evening and yet another bar ). Fun!

If you're in Puerto Rico you can't miss La Factoria. Ranked one of the best bars in the world, it contains multiple themed bars & truly has something for everyone. Save enough time to explore them all

Marjorie Muniz-Monroy

We had the octopus , a sandwich called la tripleta, beef sliders , Mediterranean pizza . All were very good I was frankly impressed by the quality of the food. I'm from Houston and a very spoiled foodie

Lisa R

Great, creative cocktails and a good selection of tapas , it was lovely on a weeknight because although there were actually people there it was comfortable and not crushed in w/ weekend warriors.

Patricia Gonzalez

Popular among young locals, La Factoría is a speakeasy bar with good music and drinks. Be sure to explore the different rooms throughout the night. You'll find music genres for all!

Ranu Rajkarnikar

Great cocktail spot. Love the worn walls and cozy vibe. I hear there's a separate space behind the bar that plays salsa too.

D K

Good cocktails ! We especially liked the Mercado Roma. Good place to stop and grab a drink.

Paola Cabrero

This place is great! Saturdays are a good day to go, they have a salsa group. They have great wines and service is pretty good also, not as cheap but worth it! It's a good time ????

Omer Zach

Try the spiced old fashioned or the lavender mule—or tell the bartender what you feel like and they'll mix up something good.

Gillian Morris

James Beard Award-winning cocktail bar with several differently-themed rooms that open as the night wears on... recommended for late night any night

Esperanza Gaetan

Lavender mule from the front bar . Do it! Also, there's a cocktail with cherry gin and cucumber that is to die for! Hipstery-fun vibe, creative-dedicated bartenders .

Nick Burto

This place is awesome. Cocktails amazing. Feels like you're still in NYC especially given bartender used to work in NoLita! Try the spiced rum Old Fashioned .

John Jeffrey

Order any of the signature cocktails . Meticulously crafted, they are all delicious and a feast for the eyes. Grab the table by the window if possible for people watching on the cobblestone streets.

Endel Vazquez

At fisrt you see this small bar with few stool bars anf sofas but take a peak thru the wood door behind the bar to several rooms with diferent atmospheres.

Michael Lopez

This is the spot where night life makes a statement. Made famous by the song "Despacito " however its amazing vibe and cocktails have always been the soul of this place.

Jeff Forbes

Cocktails were great (both the mojito and spiced old fashioned ), but the surprising star was the orders of steamed pork buns we got. Spicy and wonderful.

WillMcD

Amazing cocktails . Add it to your must do list

Eric L

If you want craft cocktails in a Williamsburg setting, this is your bar . Four rooms - each with its own menu.

Betty Gonzalez

Nice local bar in a great ambiance with salsa live music , 4 ambiance in one location. Spectacular cocktails and music .

Great mixology and bartenders ! Check out the boards for their recommendations or ask them to come up with something that pleases your taste.

Erica Johnson

Multiple rooms with different vibes so just keep going until you find what you like. Cocktails are excellent!

Angélica Ayala

Go to the bar behind the principal bar , it's more relax. Have some wine and ask for the Bacon wrapped dates with almonds .

Ramya

Lavender mule if you are adventurous with your cocktails . There's 2 more bars interconnected each with different drinks and music .

Christine Byun

Good cocktails . All 7 rooms open only on weekends; a few are closed during some of the weekdays

Jacobo Gómez

Really great spot. It has 4 different consecutive speakeasy/secret entrance bars . You have to go here if you're ever in El Viejo San Juan at night

Serden Eren

Cocktails , food, ambiance..you get everything here. If you are going to spend one night in San Juan this is the place to go.

Inna G

Speakeasy feel with different rooms. Nice vibe with amazing drinks. Each room has a different vibe.

Maria Relea

Great place for different types of music . Drinks are overpriced and gets too crowded but go on a weekday for some relaxed fun.

Daniel Bastardo Blanco

Amazing cocktails ! Make sure to try El Trago de la Banda!

Joey J

The lavender mule is made with fresh lavender sprigs. Just incredible. Fun spot in Old San Juan.

Blake Donahue

The Tequila cocktail with Chocolate bitters from vino is amazing plus the DJ in the 4th bar will trip you out!

Kevin Chan

Food here is a nice alternative to the overpriced, touristy San Juan standard fare. Come with friends and order off the tapas menu .

Stephanie DeDecker

Great cocktail bar with something for everyone. Was also featured in Despacito

The lavender mule is always a favorite here! Love the environment!
