Our number one reason for sharing Bálza is because it’s a cool bar in an amazing location!
The owners have invested a lot of money in the design and an amazing sound system and are working hard to ensure Balza’s second summer season is a huge success.
As with all “cool” bars, sometimes the service can be a little slow, plus the drinks and food may seem “overpriced” to some people.
However, when factoring in all of the above and the location/view, we think this place is worth a visit. As for the prices, these are also similar to other bars in the area.
