Opening in 1896, La Piojera is the oldest dive bar in Santiago. It is a popular hangout for Chilean artists, but tourists are welcome. La Piojera, which means The Fleabag in English, has a rich history that includes a name change thanks to the President of Chile at the time. President Palma called the place a fleabag during a visit in 1922, and the locals decided that the name had to stick. Today, people speaking all different languages visit this bar for food, drink, and great company. Outsiders often hear bar singing and cheering from the patrons, making this a must-see when in Santiago.
