Sadly bars are in as short supply as restaurants around the stadium; there aren't really any! What you should do is head on down towards the water (south!) and set up shop there. There are over a dozen bars, and at least one is bound to suit your needs! Malafama is a pretty trendy bar, with (for me) highly questionable furnishings! ZZ Club is much cooler, though also more likely to be busy when there's thousands of others mulling around looking for a nice drink.The best choice would be Mañana Cocktail Bar which serves gorgeous, cold cocktails which are best enjoyed soaking up sun rays outside. How could you say no?

You have to walk a couple of minutes to find an interesting place to drink and chat with friends. Bar Los Barcos is not bad one to have a beer and spend time before the game. At least it is very near the stadium. Don't expect cool bars around the venue. For example Cafetería El Cenachero is a neighborhood bar that offers homemade food at good prices. It is also a nice choice if you want to drink and eat something on a budget.
