About El Mono que Chilla
Rock runs through El Mono que Chilla the way it should — loud enough to feel it, chosen well enough to trust whoever put the playlist together. The barman is that rare kind: attentive, genuinely friendly, and worth asking for a recommendation. Five taps and a fridge stocked with cans and bottles make this one of the more serious craft beer stops in Santander, and the whisky and bourbon selection runs deeper than the small room might suggest. Cheese balls are the thing people order with their drink. The hill to get there is real — locals mention it — but nobody seems to regret the climb.
