Fun and entertainment Mexico

In the heart of Coyoacán, here is a very nice bar which wants to be the cathedral of the artisanal mezcal . It serves mezcal-based cocktails and pulque, but also craft beers. Concerts are often organized there. It is also possible to eat on the spot of a kitchen with traditional accents, with copious and rather successful dishes (the speciality is the marrow bone served with a soup of beans). The decoration of the place, with colored walls, reminds the traditional colonial architecture of Coyoacán.

One of the oldest discos in Acapulco. Dance on electro music, cumbia, but also music from the 1960 s and 1970 s.

On the fourth floor of the commercial Gallery Plaza Bahía, 28 tracks, but also 6 billiard tables, video games and giant screens to follow major sporting events.

Select bar-box, varied music. We advise you to book if you are accompanied by a room. Foreign tourists are always accepted.

Very bright and trendy restaurant-bar. Ideal for exiting all the more as it is located on the main square. About types of margaritas, many bottles of alcohol and exotic food: scorpion, crocodile, snake, kangaroo… The design of the floor is interesting: large red seats whose profiling suggests immediate takeoff for Saturn.

Disco-shaped Disco: the tables are arranged around the dance trail. More common than Grito but effective: The balconies allow the dulcinées to throw small bits of paper to those on the track to call them.

La Chiva is a courtyard that has been converted into a bar, and a tiny room decorated with antiques and old cameras. But the music is well chosen, and the atmosphere a little bohemian very nice. The place is frequented by university students, as well as foreigners who live in Xalapa. Ideal for a drink, to discuss poetry and to remake the world during hours in the light of the candles. Beers, glasses of wine and hearty dishes.

Looking for the perfect place to enjoy a delicious coffee in Mérida? Look no further! This place stands out for its 100% Chiapas specialty coffees, renowned for their exceptional quality. Its team is fully committed to every stage of the process, from planting to cup, guaranteeing the impeccable quality of their coffee thanks to meticulous attention to the producing regions. The menu also offers a selection of sandwiches, focaccias, chilaquiles, avocado toasts and much more.

Alas, the best chocolate breads on the planet are not made in France, but in this small café in Mazunte. Set in a garden decorated with dream catchers and multicolored mandalas, this Ícaro is first and foremost a place of relaxation and entertainment. It perfectly reflects the spirit of this beautiful seaside village. There is also a community library, an art gallery and fresh and tasty food. Everything here is delicious. We recommend arriving early, as these hot rolls go... like hot rolls!

Very nice café that sends out a nice menu of drinks and small sweets. The place is ideal for a break in the afternoon or at the end of the morning, with its selection of teas and herbal teas of all kinds, not forgetting the regional beers and a small selection of wines. You can also taste small dishes to soothe the palate, simple and rather good: plato ranchero complete, cold cuts, enchiladas... But the real asset of the place is undoubtedly its green garden, where you feel in the heart of nature.

A spot that is as clean as a whistle to test the craft beers of two local breweries that have come together to create a tasting room. They offer an arbitrary selection of half a dozen beers that can be tasted while taking part in a tasting. Some are fruity, others have a very herbaceous flavor, without forgetting the IPAs and stouts, these beers with strong hops. The staff is ultra friendly and there is a way they can influence the course of your evening, before getting down to business (and responsible!).

Subdued, intimate and refined, this is a good place to start the evening with creative and original cocktails. Ideal for a good little chat with friends in this bar which follows the concept of speakeasies, clandestine bars during the prohibition in the United States: you enter through the kitchen door, hidden in a fridge.. . The place being very popular, think of reserving your table a few weeks in advance. If you can, we recommend that you go to Hanky Panky during the week, as it is very crowded on weekends.

Just a few blocks from the Palacio de Bellas Artes, don't miss the façade of this small theatre. Its history is closely linked to that of the star, singer and actress Esperanza Iris (1884-1962), who gave the instructions for the construction of a theatre modelled on La Scala in Milan. It was inaugurated in 1918 and is still as majestic as ever. The place still hosts many concerts and recitals. Attending one of them is the best way to discover its magnificent interior.

Its history dates back to the late 19th century. The cantina has faithfully preserved its large bar carved out of wood and its lighting fixtures made from German beer mugs and stained glass. Inside, the old sign that forbids entry to "women, miners, shoeshine boys and people in uniform" still stands. The clientele is made up of locals and tourists curious about the place where William Burroughs used to come and throw himself a few. They still serve very traditional calditos de camarón and tacos that change every day.

The clientele of this unusual establishment, founded in 1954, looks like Rimbaud's Bateau Ivre... You enter through a corridor of blue tiles riddled with inscriptions of popular wisdom, to literally burst into a large room lit by neon lights and with old tiles. Meanwhile, the plastic furniture is dressed with deceptively shiny tablecloths and a Virgin of Guadalupe flashes to the rhythm of a Christmas garland. Here, you can still eat traditional dishes as you pour yourself a glass.

Take a dash of the poker scene setting in Casino Royale, a dash of the sophistication of the most lavish palaces and a dash of instrumental jazz and you have a rough impression of Fifty Mils. Opened in 2015 in Mexico City's iconic Four Seasons, the elegant bistro's long marble counter is where you toast the bartenders for their spectacular feats: their cocktails. We highly recommend you try the " Bugs Bunny" cocktail (gin, carrot juice, lemongrass syrup, chilies and Fernet). A delight!

For a change from mezcal, why not try a little Mexican beer? Cerveceria de Colima is simply one of the country's most prominent independent breweries. It serves all the local varieties on draught that are prepared in the adjoining factory, as well as delicious meat and seafood dishes. The excellent craft beers are enjoyed in the simply laid out garden. Musical events are held here regularly. Please refer to the website.

This is the beautiful theatre of Colima, which is located in the heart of the city and was built at the end of the 19th century (from 1871). It is the only centennial building in the state. In 1879, when its construction was not yet completed, the theatre hosted bullfights. Since then, it has been the cultural heart of Colima, where plays, operas, festivals and performances are held throughout the year. Thanks to important renovations, it has recovered its splendor after decades of decay.

This café-restaurant with its exceptional vintage decor offers a varied and well-balanced brunch menu. The must-try eggs Benedict, tasty chilaquiles, irresistible fruit waffles and avocado toast are sure to please. Pair these dishes with specialty coffees, fruity smoothies and bold cocktails. Vegan options are also in the spotlight, with creations such as coconut ceviche with mango and nori seaweed, falafel and chana masala. Add to this live performances for an unparalleled experience.

It is the oldest café-restaurant in the country, since its origins date back to 1808, when a small place located in front of the cathedral served pulque, coffee, wine and other small dishes with European influences. It is even said that Porfirio Diaz came here to have breakfast before boarding the ship that would take him into exile. Here, one enters and sits directly where one wants and one tinkles one's spoon on one's glass to call the waiter who will come to serve the hot milk (quite a show)...

Built in 1876, this old finca dates from the golden age of the port of Mazatlan and offers a magnificent setting. In 2010, the place was converted into an (excellent) restaurant with an old-fashioned atmosphere: you can sit in the large inner courtyard where the trees have long since taken over the old stones and the place. The large bar, ventilated by numerous fans, gives the impression of having been here for ages. Ideal for a cocktail at any time of day. The dishes, the fruit of an original culinary creation, are to be discovered.

It was originally a movie set built in the middle of a semi-desert landscape, surrounded by rocky mountains, which we like to associate with Hollywood westerns of the 1970s. The first quality feature film to be shot here was Buck and His Partner, starring Sydney Poitiers and Harry Belafonte. This was followed by a dozen or so notable Hollywood productions and then by lesser quality films. Today, it is a sort of entertainment park built around the traditional single street of western villages.

This is the cultural café that energizes the young local artistic and cultural scene: a large number of events are organized here, from film cycles, theatre, concerts, readings, artistic performances to exhibitions of all kinds. If you want to taste the local mezcals and beers, this is also the place to do it. For the rest, it will be coffee and wine. We love the bohemian atmosphere of the place, with its colourful walls, its mismatched furniture, its modern sculptures and paintings and the small fountain that emits a pleasant gurgling sound.

The Rosetta restaurant has been so successful that Chef Elena Reygadas decided to open a bakery next door to cater for sweet tooths. And the gamble paid off! Here, everything is excellent, from the croissant to the scone and the muffins, not forgetting the bread (baguette or cereal, among others). Even the pastries leave us wondering; let yourself be tempted by the mille-feuille. The place also offers a few dishes, including very good sandwiches. Once again, it's a great success, and the place is always full from morning to night.

This large house houses the best of literature and beautiful books on Mexico on several floors. The place also serves as a café, with its many tables and large armchairs. Special mention for the pleasant terrace, although we have a preference for the indoor tables which allow us to enjoy the hipster setting. On the menu, simple and rather successful dishes: eggs and fresh juice for brunch and burgers, salads and tacos for dinner. Three other similar branches are scattered throughout the city.

As you walk up the charming cobbled Higuera Street, you'll notice many shops that are very appealing... this little blue-fronted café tops the list! It serves the best coffee in the neighborhood, if not the capital. If you're craving a good latte with a divine foam, a cappuccino with a heart, or a full-bodied black coffee, Café Avellaneda will satisfy you. Some surprising cocktails too. The place is very small, but you can still sit along the counter and enjoy your hot drink served on a wooden tray. Charming.

On Avenida Insurgentes, Mambocafé is the perfect place to dance salsa all night long! Depending on the night and the DJ's preferences, you can also rock out to disco, mambo, bachata and other intoxicating Latin beats. The dance floor is not very large, which makes it easy to meet people! Mambocafé also offers dance classes. The prices of the drinks are a bit high (at some tables, it is compulsory to order at least one bottle), and we do not recommend to make your meal there.

Open on two floors in an old-fashioned brocante decor with gilded ornaments, porcelain, antique furniture and black and white portraits, this charming café serves delicious snacks, empanadas, bagels, quiches and desserts in a warm and surprising atmosphere. Satie or Liszt music echoes through the speakers creating a nostalgic atmosphere of the early 20th century. One can both immerse oneself in reading a good novel on the small terrace of the second floor and enjoy tea time with friends.

Chilangos call Blend Station the mecca for freelancers in Mexico City. In a spacious and bright space, fair trade coffees from independent producers from around the world are offered. The baristas don't hesitate to share their knowledge about the different characteristics of their products while concocting superior cappucinos, flat whites, mochas and smoothies. They also serve avocado toast, shakshukas and other healthy and nutritious dishes made with fresh and organic ingredients.

In this dark and intimate tasting room, you will participate in a lively and constructive exchange about the mysteries of mezcal. Not only do the staff teach you about the production methods of this delectable drink made from the leaves and roots of the yucca tree, but they also present you with a rigorous selection of handcrafted and ancestral mezcals from some 40 varieties of agave. They collaborate with independent and certified producers and guarantee an irreproachable quality of their products. A real surprise.

In Mombasa, depending on whether you arrive around opening time or later in the night, you'll notice a slight variation in the atmosphere. Visitors think they're going for dinner, but often end up standing on their tables, dancing like crazy to the beats of the DJs. The atmosphere is impeccable, as are the seafood dishes and cocktails. Electronic music fan or not, this is the bar to go to to be served by friendly staff, to enjoy your vacation, and to let your hair down. Perfect for night owls.
