There is a little place on the corner of a busy little area just outside of a few resorts in Punta Cana..

It’s a true Diamond in the Rough !!

It’s called Steve’s bar !!

Steve’s is a MUST DO when vacationing on this special island. …..

There is a beautiful mix of locals, tourists and wonderful people that frequent this little bar on the corner.

You can “Meet & Greet” other forum members or just fly solo ANYTIME you want…

We absolutely love visiting this little place when we travel to DR.

We love the ice cold pressies (the cheapest in the area), we love the beautiful ladies, we love the music, we love the food AND we love the ability to “people watch" on that little bar stool..

BUT…. we don’t love the new wall !!!!

We miss dangling our feet through the planks. We miss playing footsies. We miss having our knees free from restriction. We miss the shoeshine boys (who have no access now) that cleaned my flip flops better than anyone.. We miss freedom !!

Steve !! Could you PLEASE take the wall down? !!

Peace

Lea

hey Lynn,

no, he did not enclose the spot, that would be selfkilling, it wouldn't be Steve's anymore.

it is just that he closed the lower part, from the table plate downwards at the outside part, where you sit right at the side of the street, so he could write his name and logo on it. he has several constructions going on right now, because he also rented the neighbour spot where 2 big toilets(ladies with their own room of course) and a few exclusive shops, a little Steve's Plaza worth a walk and like always worth a drink, ha ha.

Lea, behave yourself, ha ha,

but i agree on the point with the free room for free feet of free people, i like that more, too.

but no wall closed Steve's, Lynn.

happy weekend

I found this one but I don't know when it was taken, it looks different to when I was there, is there a different roof on Steve's too?

Definitely still the place to visit off resort, I have to pickup my charter Meet & Greet membership card from Steve, and of course try and secure another Presidente neon light.

Oh yes Wud !! Still the BEST place to go and getting better each time I visit.

Deb, good link to Steve’s Pics. In picture # 64 & 65 you can see the L-shape seating that faces out from the bar. So it’s perfect for hanging out and watching the awesome world go by.. In # 64 you can see where I would have usually propped up, or dangled my feet. My shoeshine boys also could get to those much needed cleaning tasks. Well now it’s a concrete wall. There is no name in front of it, which is where I expect Steve wants to eventually hang it.

Peace
