Patio Bellavista has charm at any time, but to enjoy the daytime atmosphere without the crowds, I suggest going in the mid-afternoon on weekdays. To experience the vibrant nightlife, Friday and Saturday evenings are ideal. As for the best season, spring and autumn in Chile offer more pleasant weather for strolling and enjoying the terraces.
