👍👍 Great staff and customer service! I recommend the burger is the BEST I’ve had in Playa del Carmen, with the fries and corn/elote on the side to top it off 🔥 Live music here is great however it can be a little too loud. The meal portion sizes are big so be prepared to eat a fantastically large meal. People often mention music, good, great, live, Great, Playa, atmosphere, service, night,

    Nice place, the live show is great and gives good spirit but is a bit too loud making it kinda hard to talk to each other, maybe it's the acoustics and that's why it's a 4 star review We drank piña colada and mojitos that were good and ate the tuna tartar - great dish, big, fresh and satsfiying and seasoned very well, as well as the quesadillas that has great taste, food was really good and beyond expectations Staff was really nice and helpful

    Great atmosphere! Live music during the night, good food. Love the grill octopus. Service is not the best takes long to be served and waiter give more attention to foreign tourist than local visitors. Over all good place.

    Only ordered beers here. Awesome cover band playing for a few hours made us stay until they closed down the place. We really stayed here for the band than anything else but it was awesome...

    A bit noisy but still good. I go there for a single dish which si absolutely fabulous: tuna tartar.

  • 4/5 Darcie R. 1 year ago on Google
    Good prices for 5th Ave! Happened to pop in during happy hour so drinks were buy one get one! Just had a couple appetizers, and they were delicious. Would return. (Also like that the host didn't yell at us or try and usher us in from the street) Took away a star because the bathroom didn't have a toilet seat and music was too loud.

    Definitely worth stopping at this place while you are in Playa. There is often live music, Happy hour for much of the day and some pretty decent food.

    This was one of the busier bars we spotted while walking along Playa del Carmen's Fifth Avenue. It is newer looking and very modern. The food options were Mexican and standard American bar food. We had some of their Tex-Mex style quesadillas, nachos and some other appetizers to enjoy with our drinks. The biggest positive of this place is that they have live music which gives the place a very cool vibe and fun atmosphere. Luckily for me, it was all rock music being played when I was here, but I am not sure if they do other genres on different nights.

    Live music, a huge list of cocktails, and great food! Place gets a bit full at night, but it is worth the visit for the specials they got on cocktails and for the food. The music that plays is pretty great, too.

    A 'pop rock' open air restobar along 5th ave with live music and chill vibes. Fun staff - very well managed. Tacos are delicious.

  • 5/5 Julissa P. 5 months ago on Google
    My favorite place in Playa Del Carmen!! The food is delicious and the nights are just too much fun!! My fave dish is Tuna Chicharron, but the tostadas & the Tacos are delicious as well. They always have life music at night and everything gets better when somebody asks for a round of shots at night!! 1000% recommended!

    We visited this bar/restaurant three times during our stay - it had really good food for affordable price and the cocktails were also tasty. There was live music every night, which made a nice ambient. The waiters were all great.

  • 5/5 Wayde S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great tacos and amazing nachos! Was not too busy at 2:00 pm. Bathrooms could use some love.

    Nice live rock music and good local pub food. What else do you need for a good time ?

  • 5/5 Arash R. 1 year ago on Google
    Our favorite happy hour spot! The beer is cold, the service is friendly and attentive, and last but not least the snacks are tasty. Our particular favorite was the hot chicken wings. We hit this spot 5 times over 3 weeks so they have our seal of approval!

  • 5/5 Tango Z. 10 months ago on Google
    Local resident. Been coming to FAH for over 8 years. Never disappoints. One of the best live music venues in PDC. Staff are fabulous and always greet me and my lady when we arrive. Excellent atmosphere located on the famous 5th avenue. Shout out to Charlie Coo.

  • 5/5 Angela D. 10 months ago on Google
    Fantastic place to catch live tunes...especially if you are in the mood for some old school tunes and need a break from all the crazy Edm and reggae...not that those are bad.. but sometimes it's nice to switch gears and listen to some 80s tunes or some decent rock!!....also the staff is absolutely amazing!! So friendly and super awesome peeps!! Much love and respect 🙏...xo Also Tuesday is ladies' night...like 35 pesos for some awesome cocktails...and as a solo traveler...it's not a total meat market...and in the case that some creepy perv is bothering you...the staff is fantastic at handling that and will get rid of them...💚💜💙

    One of the best places in Playa del Carmen for drinks and food. Service is best of whole 5th Ave. Food is amazing. Prices are friendly compared to many places around. Waiters are very attentive. Best in town!

  • 5/5 Scott M. 1 year ago on Google
    This place has the first real margaritas that we've had on our trip to Playa del Carmen. Everywhere else makes them sweet. Keep it simple and do it right people! The guacamole was also great and the prices are fair. Eric was an amazing waiter too! $115 pesos for guac. $120 pesos for margaritas (2 for 1 happy hour) $55 pesos for beer I will totally be back.

    Excellent food, drinks, service and entertainment! Would highly recommend. Thank you!

  • 1/5 Ricardo V. 1 year ago on Google
    I went in for wings but decided the Rib Eye steak sounded better. However, when the food was brought to my table, the steak didn't look or taste fresh; instead, it had the taste of something that had been refrigerated for a very long time. As a result, I was hesitant to eat it. On top of that the manger argued that I had to pay for it.

  • 5/5 Georgina e. 1 year ago on Google
    We popped in for drinks only which were good value for money. An ideal location, fantastic for people watching a great atmosphere. The band was good playing music that suited our taste which always helps. The service was really good with a smile and prompt.

  • 5/5 Doug 1 year ago on Google
    We ate breakfast here one morning and had the special offer which was two breakfasts for 160 pesos. My wife had bacon and eggs and I had Chilaquiles. Both were very good and my Chilaquiles was so filling. We also had Mimosas which were tasty. A great deal for breakfast on 5th Avenue. The service was great as well.

  • 4/5 Gal T. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place overall. We watched the Champions League finals there, and they had lots of TV screens for that. Plus, they upgraded our location (for better viewing angle) once it was an option. Had a good vegan mushroom burger, which came with fries & a corn.

    Cool bar on 5th Avenue. Great music if you like rock and roll Great food and great margaritas stop by and say Hi to Sergio and my guys.

  • 5/5 Perica K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere, maybe the best bar on the 5th avenue. The staff is super friendly and chirfull, the band is great (the ask for tips every 30 min and sell band material). Margaritas are amazing 😍

  • 3/5 Renata M. 2 years ago on Google
    The atmosphere of this place was really good with some live music and it is very well located. We didn’t try many options of the menu, the food was ok and the service was not very good. We had to wait a lot to get a couple beers, maybe because the place was packed. But they were not paying attention to us at any time, we had to keep calling the waiter repeatedly. If I come back to Playa I might give it another chance because I really liked the vibe of the place.
