Cantinas (local bars): aka. the Heart of Mexico<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Historically, cantinas have been a preferred hangout all over the country. Laid-back and brimming with tradition, cantinas offer affordable drinks and botanas (snacks), and in many cases, full lunch or dinner menus. For centuries, women weren\u2019t allowed in cantinas, but today, things have changed. Cantinas welcome patrons from all walks of life who want to gather around the table for hours, usually to the sound of a classic mariachi or tr\u00edo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the most iconic cantinas in town are found right in the heart of downtown. Tenampa<\/strong> is a festive spot that’s ideal for traditional Mexican food and drinks. Believe us when we say they taste even better when paired with the sound of mariachi music. In fact, Tenampa is located in Garibaldi Plaza, the city\u2019s official mariachi headquarters. Another cantina is La Faena,<\/strong> decorated with vintage bullfighting posters and memorabilia. Here, you\u2019ll find a super casual and lively atmosphere. Meanwhile at La Opera,<\/strong> gorgeous interiors will take you back to its origins in 1895.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mezcal has deep ties to Mexican history, culture, and mythology. According to legend, we have the agave goddess Mayahuel to thank for this fascinating spirit. Mezcal is produced in eight Mexican states including Oaxaca (home to most of the country’s production), Guerrero, and Durango. Whether you are already a mezcal aficionado or want to begin your exploration of this agave-based liquid, there are plenty of mezcaler\u00edas in Mexico City where you can embark on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located in Centro Hist\u00f3rico, B\u00f3sforo<\/strong> is a bohemian spot dedicated to artisanal mezcal. Here, you\u2019ll find a wide array of agave varietals and a knowledgeable staff that is always ready to offer advice. The low lighting and groovy world music will help set the mood. Over at Roma, head to La Clandestina,<\/strong> a local favorite for nearly 15 years. This cozy spot serves more than 20 mezcals, most of them from Oaxaca, including some in tasty cocktails. And for a fun, casual night of mezcal-imbibing, look no further than La Botica. <\/strong>Here, you’ll find more than 50 labels on the shelves of its two locations: Centro Hist\u00f3rico and Condesa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rooftop bars usually offer a chill vibe during the early evening. Then the atmosphere starts to heat up later on \u2013 some of these bars turn into full-blown nightclubs. Depending on your plans, you can stop at a rooftop for a few drinks before heading to a nightclub, or spend the entire night there, soaking in the views and energetic atmosphere. Try these Mexico City rooftop bars and you will not be disappointed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
