Devil's Bar

Bar

👍👍 A nice place to stop and wet your whistle while walking the Malecón in PV Mexico. It’s a small bar with friendly staff. If you’re not up to date speaking Spanish you’re in luck, they are fluent in English so come on by relax, grab a cold one and watch a game. People often mention great, margaritas, nice, staff, time, drinks, Malecon, stop, small, friendly,

    Small place on the malecon. Maybe 10 chairs around the bar. Friendly atmosphere. Fun patrons. I didn't care for their margarita

    This place is a UNIC small bar ,that offers the most AMAZING VARIETY of cocktails, everything you can think of ...they will make it for you ! The taste is incredible and the presentation is remarkable! Is right in front of the OCEAN so you hear the waves and see the also the people passing by on the boardwalk. Also the STAFF is AMAZING ! WILL BE BACK ASAP.

    This is always a good stop when you are cruising down the malecon. The view is nice, people watching is always fun plus the owner and staff are always great. Get a break from the sun and look out at the ocean with a nice cold beer or cocktail. It's open air but there are fans if you happen to be visiting during the summer

    We spent most of our time at this bar. The drinks were fabulous, fresh, and beautifully presented. My husband loved the Jalopeno margaritas and I enjoyed the supersonic blackberry, pineapple margaritas, mezcal blackberry.

    Ahh…fresh squeezed lime juice in the best Margarita I’ve had in a while. Enjoyable little hangout for taking a break from walking the Malecon!

    Cutest little bar on the Malecon, great for people watching and chatting with locals and visitors. And most importantly, AMAZING drinks!

  • 5/5 Paul R. 1 year ago on Google
    The best place on the whole malecon to view the sunset. Small bar with maybe 12 or 14 seats. Friendly staff and moderate prices. Sports on two TVs. No food but just around the corner you can buy food or order some.

  • 4/5 Hector M. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place to have a drink and watch the sunset on the Pacific Ocean.

  • 4/5 Edwin R. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this place!! Came here to have a couple of beers and a great time with other random people. Everyone's friendly and the beers are super cold! Staff is on it 100% They'll make conversation with you and make you feel welcomed. I didn't try any of their margaritas but I bet they sure are delicious. Only downside is that restrooms are down the hall and it not with Devils bar, with the cost of 8-10 pesos every time you use it.

  • 4/5 Joe P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun little bar. Prices are a bit high but obviously you're paying for the location. Have to pay to use public restroom which is not convenient.

  • 4/5 george w. 1 year ago on Google
    The strengths are a nice view and strong, always are double margaritas. There is no bathroom, so paying for liquid return is $10pesos near-by. A good spot to take a break. Closes at midnight.

    First time at the Devil's Bar... the cocktails were lovely. The service and ambience were excellent all the customers were chatty and from all over the world.

  • 5/5 Kate H. 7 months ago on Google
    I visited this bar with my friends while we were walking the Malecón. We loved our drinks so much on our first visit that we went back on the next visit. The bartenders are very nice and fun. The drinks are really good and not too sweet. We got different flavors of margaritas, which were delicious and had beautiful presentation. The bar is cash only so make sure you plan ahead. It’s a great spot to stop while you’re walking the boardwalk.

    Stopped here and had a delicious michelada and a passion fruit mezcalita for $300 pesos total. Highly recommended expat bar.

  • 5/5 Shawna 6 months ago on Google
    Great lil beachside sports bar! The margaritas are fantastic! Seating is limited but you can grab a drink to-go. One of my fav places to hang out while in PV.

  • 5/5 T W. 1 year ago on Google
    Best bar in town. Watch the ocean while sipping on your great cocktails and enjoy conversation with locals and tourists.

  • 4/5 Nicholas S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great drinking spot on the waterfront of Banderas Bay. Fun servers and clientele. Sports on the TVs and food available!

  • 5/5 Frank H. 1 year ago on Google
    As usual, one of the best margaritas in PV. Great bar, amazing views. Never disappointed when we are here

  • 5/5 DIANA C. 1 year ago on Google
    Right on the Malecon, can watch the ocean. Really great drinks, friendly staff. (No food). I always bring my dog too. Love it here!

    Came to this place during a two week trip in December... That was 2 months ago. Alex keeps talking me into more drinks.

  • 3/5 Heather M. 2 years ago on Google
    The day crew is amazing!!! Don't go late at night because of drug pushing. Also, the bartender was drunk and kept trying to charge us and short-changed us.

  • 4/5 David F. 2 years ago on Google
    Quirky little joint that we had lots of fun at. Great views and people watching. Super friendly service. While the beer was cold and yummy the craft cocktails stole the show...fresh ingredients and expertly prepared...super yummy.

  • 5/5 Adele M. 6 years ago on Google
    Echoing the other reviews, the staff is very friendly and this small, personable bar is on the Malecon with beautiful view of the Bay of Banderas! They carry NFL games as well and will accommodate you for your team. This is a bar we will revisit.

  • 5/5 Robert B. 3 years ago on Google
    This was a bar we stumbled upon during Independence Day festivities on the Malecon. Staff spoke both English and Spanish and were very kind and friendly. Drinks were very strong and reasonably priced, especially for the Malecon. They can even make them to-go if you ask! We tried the margaritas and daiquiris and both were superb. We've been looking for a nice small bar where we could grab a drink and chat and we are both so happy we finally found this place. The music isn't so loud that you have to scream to hear the person next to you, and they have televisions that play U.S. sports. Awesome gem and I'm gonna be back next week when my sister comes to visit! High recommended!!

  • 5/5 Gail G. 5 years ago on Google
    Best cocktails around!! The small one on the malecon is the best. Try a ceasar there. Fantastic!!!

  • 5/5 CW Q. 4 years ago on Google
    Great little college dive bar with great music and a great view. Friendly staff and AZ Native owner. Pro Tips: - Cash Only - a lot of PV is this way - Get ticket for free bathroom break while drinking - check out the second location on the river during high season.

  • 1/5 Concierge V. 2 years ago on Google
    Right in the heart of the Malecon, get drinks, watch the crowd, watch the waves but experience super poor service. Concierge Vallarta does not recommend this bar to Vallarta Visitors.

  • 5/5 jeff g. 3 years ago on Google
    Great little spot to stop in for a cold Corona on the central boardwalk, with a photo op out front

  • 4/5 MAYRA M. 3 years ago on Google
    Cool place to stop for a drink while exploring the malecón

  • 5/5 Calvin Klein S. 2 years ago on Google
    We came here for a quick stop for some tequila shots and the service from the bartenders were great. Very quick service and the music vibe was good too with the red lights. It’s a nice and small place to hangout at!

👍👍 Okay so this was the first place recommended to try on my trip to Puerto Vallarta. I feel like I should give the person who recommended this place a brand new car because it was absolutely amazing! I think my server's name was Daniel and he did an outstanding job. Make sure you start off with a larg...
