La Bruja Chupadora BBQ & Pub
Smokehouse meats, creative tapas, and nightlife energy minutes from Bávaro Beach.
The culinary team centers everything around an artisanal smokehouse—time and temperature deliver deep flavors to ribs, pork belly bao, and short rib croquettes. Pair it with creative cocktails, craft beers, and a soundtrack that turns this witchy hangout into one of Punta Cana’s most talked-about night spots.
La Bruja Chupadora (The Bloodsucking Witch) reflects the mischievous energy of Punta Cana’s nightlife, blending smokehouse mastery with mixology and music.
Walls lined with neon, murals, and industrial wood accents set the stage for after-hours fun, while the kitchen experiments with global techniques and Dominican ingredients.
Grab a seat on the patio, try the ribs and tacos, then stick around for DJ sets, craft cocktails, and people-watching that goes well past midnight.
