Bar da Dado

על המקום הזה Bar da Dado

Bar da Dado sits on Rua Farme de Amoedo — known by locals as "Farme Gay" for its concentration of LGBTQ+-friendly bars, restaurants, and shops in the blocks directly behind Posto 9 beach. The bar is the quintessential Carioca meeting spot: unpretentious, sociable, with tables spilling onto the pavement and the easy flow of conversation that characterises the best Brazilian street-level bars. The crowd that gathers at Bar da Dado is the daily social life of Ipanema's LGBTQ+ community — the after-beach crowd, the early evening gatherers, the locals stopping in on the way somewhere else. The drinks are affordable by Ipanema standards and the atmosphere is the specific Ipanema combination of beauty-consciousness and social warmth. For visitors who have spent the afternoon at Posto 9, Bar da Dado is the natural first stop of the evening — a transition from beach to night that is one of Rio's great social pleasures.
