Aire Bar

About this place Aire Bar

Aire Bar sits in Gazcue, the residential neighbourhood that has long been home to Santo Domingo's artistic and intellectual community and that contains a cluster of gay-friendly venues serving the neighbourhood's LGBTQ+ population. The bar is smaller and more intimate than Exodus, with a feel that is neighbourhood establishment rather than destination venue. The clientele is predominantly Dominican ? younger professionals, artists, and creative types from the surrounding neighbourhood ? which gives it an authenticity that tourist-circuit venues often lack. A good choice for visitors who want to meet local LGBTQ+ Dominicans rather than other tourists, and for evenings that start early and end at a reasonable hour before the later club circuit.
