About El Santuario

Located at Av. Balmaceda 824, 1710188 La Serena, Coquimbo, El Santuario operates as a bar in La Serena, Coquimbo. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In Chile lunch is the main meal of the day, roughly from 13:00 to 15:00, once (afternoon tea) comes between 17:00 and 19:00 and dinner rarely starts before 20:30, busiest at weekends. At lunchtime many places serve a menú del día (set lunch), the bill shows a suggested 10% tip that is voluntary, and in the cities almost everything can be ordered for delivery through PedidosYa, Uber Eats or Rappi. Craft beer has spread across the country, with Valdivia and Patagonia as benchmarks, and a draught schop with a chorrillana to share is a classic night out; if you are driving, remember that under Chile's Tolerancia Cero law drink-driving is severely punished.

The business lists hours for six days of the week. The most common schedule is 11:30–21:00. Note that it does not open on Sundays. Also bear in mind that 1 January, 1 May, 18 and 19 September and 25 December are mandatory retail holidays, when most shops close. No phone number is listed for this business, so the Google Maps link on this page is the best route for directions and any contact details Google has on file.

With 4.0 out of 5 on Google from 36 reviews, it sits mid-range for bars and craft beer in La Serena; the detailed comments usually say more than the score about service, prices and waiting times.

Cuando fui había la mitad de las cervezas de la carta. Pedí una pizza de 9 mil pesos y la masa era de supermercado. Pedí la cuenta 3 veces para que me trajeran.
