Pizza Alley Renewal Project

I agree with you but as you can remember the calle de las pizas had its dark side of prostitution, drugs consuming and selling and other things. So, maybe this facelifting will help Miraflores to have another safe and tourist-friendly place.

 

What is activity like at Pizza Alley after the facelift a couple years ago? Sly One mentions this place in his newcomers guide. Is the grigo bar, Old Pub, still in business? Is it any more or less safe than before renovations? The proximity to TR makes it appealing to just sit with a beer and watch the happenings prior to going to TR to find the main event.

 

Still plenty of activity here (as of a year ago). If you're a gringo hanging around there - odds are you'll cross paths with (if not be approached by) a pro or 2.

Not sure about those specific places, but for people watching I recommend Cafe Haiti
