Best bars in Panama City
Best bars in Panama City comes down to choosing where to start. In Panama City that place is Calle Uruguay, and Q'Paso Ayer is the perfect launch — Tuesday to Sunday something is always on.
Midweek has plans too
No need to wait for Saturday. Tuesday to Sunday there's programming: college Thursdays, Friday after-work and weekend themes. Midweek usually means shorter lines and better tables.
Why Q'Paso Ayer
At Q'Paso Ayer the night has a script: you arrive for dinner and the early after-work, move on to games and warm-up, and stay for the DJ. All on Calle Uruguay, the liveliest zone in Panama City. Shareable food, drinks and a good mix of locals and travelers.
What a night in Panama City is like
Panamanian nights start early and end late: after-work kicks off around 6-7 pm, things pick up after 10, and the real party runs from midnight onward. Bella Vista — especially Calle Uruguay — is the epicenter where it all comes together: bars, kitchens and clubs within a few blocks.
