WUNDERBAR CAFÉ

Bar and caf

The Wunderbar is an institution in Cuenca since 1995. It is a simple place with a rustic decor (stone and brick walls, wooden tables) where you can relax and enjoy a cold beer or a canelazo, meet other travellers and Cuencanos... and play a game of pool. The place is also recommended for a quick lunch; if the weather is good, you can even sit outside in the small garden. Live music from Thursday to Saturday, with a very modern and eclectic program. Good atmosphere guaranteed!

LA COMPANIA BISTRO PUB

Bar and caf

A micro-brewery that has been offering craft beer in its name, from dark to white, for almost 10 years. To accompany these good beers, the Compañia offers pizzas and very good variations on the cheesecake theme. Lovers will ask for the red fruit cheesecake, prepared on the spot of course, with red fruits harvested in the region. You can eat very good small snacks here, as an aperitif or as a meal. There is a pleasant games room with the traditional pub game of darts.

GOZA CAFE BAR

Bar and caf

Located in a pretty square, Goza Café is an Espresso-bar, one of those places that not only serves coffee, but also offers a great menu from breakfast to dinner! We love the large terrace, where you can enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of Cuenca. In the evening, the square becomes a favorite meeting place for the city's artists and skateboarders. During the pandemic, Goza opened two other establishments in Cuenca, demonstrating its determination to become the most widespread restaurant/cafeteria in Equatorial cities. Already two other addresses in town.

CHIPLOTE GRILL

Bar and caf

El Chiplote looks like a night bar from the outside, but not only! It is above all a very good Tex-Mex restaurant where you can taste very tasty tacos, burritos and quesadillas while having a drink with friends or during a sports event broadcasted live on big screens. It's a good place to meet other travelers or chat with locals who come here in large numbers for lunch or dinner. The atmosphere is very good and the service very friendly.

LA PIAZZA

Club

A little way from the center of Cuenca, the Piazza Cadillac, as it's known here, is the preferred meeting place for Cuenca's affluent young people on weekend evenings. A bar/disco atmosphere with good music to dance to, impressive cocktails and a menu of fast food, burritos, wraps or club sandwiches, to keep you going through the evening full of energy. You'll need it, because the place is very lively and you'll soon get to know the regulars, who won't hesitate to invite you to the table.
