Bravo Cabrera

Puerto Varas


Named after a Patagonian Robin Hood who stole beef from the rich and threw barbecues for the poor, this fashionable restobar is where you'll find upper-class local color downing craft beers, trendy cocktails and great pub grub (mains CH$6200 to CH$8400). It's a great place to escape the tourist onslaught and see how the other half of PV lives.

A late-night taxi back to centro costs CH$1500.
