Alcohol on Good Friday?

[Ann-MarieG]

A group of us arrive in Santiago on holy Thursday (hopefully) after completing our Camino. We are wondering if the bars will be open on good Friday?

Thanks for the info

We were in Santiago on Good Friday 2015. All restaurants were open normally. Otherwise it was fabulous to see the Processions during the day. They go thru the city on 2 or 3 pm. And on 9 pm, if I remember correctly.

We are coming from Ireland and were just discussing the pubs opening in Ireland this good Friday for the first time. That's how my question came about.

I'm looking forward to seeing the processions

Was in Spain on different Good Fridays( and Semana Santa ) throughout the years. Bars in abundance and they do serve alcohol.
Restos also serve meat.
Spain as a society secularised rapidly throughout the years.
