Gate 6 in T1 puts Beretta right on your path
Beretta sits airside in Terminal T1 near gates 5–7, so you pass it on most international departures out of Montevideo. It’s a compact multi-brand shop with Uruguayan snacks, local spirits, and standard duty-free-style gifts, all within a 2–3 minute walk of the central security area.
Opening hours generally track flight banks, roughly 3:00–22:00, with longer stretches on busy days when European and regional flights overlap. If you’re on late-night departures to São Paulo or Buenos Aires after 21:00, expect reduced staff and some shelves half-stocked, especially on weekday evenings.
Pricing lines up with typical South American duty free: local Tannat wines start around USD 12–15, mid-shelf Uruguayan grappas hover near USD 20, and boxed alfajores or dulce de leche gift packs often run 2-for deals in the USD 10–14 range. Premium whisky and cognac track global brand prices; don’t expect big savings versus downtown Montevideo.
Product mix leans heavily on export-friendly souvenirs: Uruguayan wine, mate gourds and bombillas, packaged yerba, and national football merch sharing space with global chocolates and cosmetics. Stock can skew towards wine and candy when cruise traffic and regional flights peak, so grab any specific label you want as soon as you see it.
Payments are easy: Beretta takes Uruguayan pesos, US dollars, and major cards, and prices usually show at least two currencies on the same shelf tag. Card terminals occasionally need a restart during the early-morning rush around 5:00–7:00, so keep a small amount of cash handy if your boarding time is tight.
Plan one quick lap first: walk the back wall with spirits and wines before grabbing snacks, or you risk blowing your time (and budget) on chocolates you could buy at home.
