    Fantastic cocktails bar right off the main tourist drag. The bartenders (Samir and I believe Fay? Or something like that) were very attentive and friendly and gave good suggestions to my preferences. Went here twice on my trip and would come again if I'm ever in PV again.

    If you’re looking for high end cocktails in a cool environment, this is the place. The cocktails are very creative and complex and every one we tried was delicious. The atmosphere felt like a speakeasy in the jungle. The staff was great and service was quick. Prices were expensive but fair for the quality of the drinks. 10/10 recommend this place!

    Stumbled across this place quite by accident when we spotted some people go through a mysterious door covered in plants! What an absolute gem of a place. Had the pleasure of meeting Alex, one of the owners, and I have to say he and the team have put together a really special place here. The bar staff are exceptional, mixing perfect cocktail after perfect cocktail. The DJs (I think we saw 3 over the course of the night) were all exceptionally talented and had the dance floor buzzing. And the vibe created by the roofless area, surrounded by lush greenery, where you can dance the night away under the stars was fantastic! HIGHLY recommend.

    Exceptional! The people here must have a Masters Degree in Drinks. The flavors in the drinks made us come back several times while vacationing. The vibe is so right even if u just stop in and get one drink. I wanna try their food but I end up trying 5 different drinks. Perfect,

    My husband and I went here tonight and my biggest regret is that we were too full from an earlier dinner to fully enjoy the drink menu. The drinks and ambiance were excellent - such a cool place tucked away right off the main road with great music and mood. Service was top notch. Hope to get back soon!

    We came across this great bar during our visit. It was a hidden gem that had a speakeasy vibe & delicious cocktails. Our waiter was Juan & he took great care of us. He knew the menu extensively & was able to recommend drinks based on our preferences. He even made a drink off the menu for our boyfriend. 10/10 would recommend & come back next time!

  • 5/5 E V. 1 year ago on Google
    What an amazing experience and atmosphere. Juan gave phenomenal service and provided so much detail about the cocktails. Wish we had a speak easy bar like this in Washington State. Highly recommend and definitely make a reservation. Salud!

    One of the best cocktail bars we ever visited! Unique selection of local liquors, delicious drinks, beautiful space, top notch service and great suggestions from bartender.

  • 5/5 Diana R. 4 months ago on Google
    From aesthetic to drinks, el Colibri is top tier. The only thing that surpasses their drinks is their customer service which speaks volumes. Juan and Azalia are the best. A must stop regardless of where you are traveling from. Their carajillo is a 12/10

    My partner and I were given the very best recommendation from our Airbnb host Alan. He sent us the address of a bar called El Colibri (meaning hummingbird). We were immediately impressed upon entering the speakeasy-like door covered in greenery. Inside I giggled at the "welcome to the jungle" neon sign. To the left was a bar with an impressive offering of cocktail ingredients and mood lighting. We were seated by our handsome cool server Juan in the open courtyard lined with tropical plants and upholstered bench seating. Samir, our bartender at El Colibri made us craft cocktails that were as good as any we've had. Jaun made sure we were comfortable and happy throughout our experience and along with the excellent cocktails brought local fresh food. We will be back.

    Super cool place! Went with a large group to the 4 foot attic area. Drinks were good and reasonably priced. The service was good and the server came up the stairs to be sure we all stayed hydrated😃

  • 5/5 Mara J. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved everything about this place! As soon as we walked in the vibe was super cool in a really interesting space. Our server Juan had a ton of great knowledge about the cocktails and was very nice. Definitely going back!

  • 5/5 Chelsea S. 1 year ago on Google
    A must stop in Puerto Vallarta. The service from Juan was incredible and made this experience so special and memorable. The drink are reasonably priced and equally delicious!

  • 5/5 Tatiana H. 10 months ago on Google
    This speakeasy was such a great experience. The vibe of the atmosphere could be a good date night or out with some friends, such a beautiful space. The drinks were delicious, beautiful and well balanced. To top off our great experience, JUAN, our waiter, was so fun and such a good time. He gave great drink recommendations and chatted with us throughout our stay. Thanks JUAN for showing us such great hospitality!

  • 5/5 Saeid G. 4 months ago on Google
    Best hidden gem of a bar in Vallarta. Unbelievable atmosphere. Great drinks, awesome service and seriously good music including a DJ from Thursday. If you haven’t been to this place, you are missing out.

  • 5/5 Hani J. 1 year ago on Google
    A diamond of a cocktail bar in the heart of puerto Vallarta. Extensive menu with well crafted cocktails that aren’t your standard fare. Very few classics, though I’m sure you could order one. My partner had a “Riki Tiki” which she described as an alcoholic coconut milk shake and the best tiki drink she’s ever had (talks about it daily) and I had the house Negroni that was also incredible. Nice spin on the original. Overall, loved this place. Juan, our server, was very helpful and provided very friendly service. If I get the opportunity I will absolutely return. Thank you!!

    Great atmosphere, amazing customer service. The drinks are well made but I could barely taste the alcohol.

  • 5/5 Lauren S. 1 year ago on Google
    We held a pre wedding event at El Colibri and our group couldn’t stop raving about how great everything was. The cocktails and service were fantastic and Alex was so easy to work with. We even extended our time because everyone was having so much fun. I couldn’t recommend this place more. 10/10!

  • 5/5 Angelique G. 3 months ago on Google New
    This review is long overdue but very well-deserved. We’ve been to dozens of cocktail bars around the world but this one takes the cake for flavour, atmosphere, originality and just all-around coolness. The staff was so nice to us each time we went there (we visited 4 times in the last half of our week-long vacation), giving us incredible drink recommendations and taking our nightly photo for us! My favorite drink (possibly in the world) was the Paradise - never had anything like that before! Thank you for your hospitality and incredible drinks! We’ll be back! 🍹

  • 5/5 Monika O. 6 months ago on Google
    An amazing and genuine bar in Puerto Vallarta. The drinks are delicious- not sweet, very refreshing. The staff working there are very nice and have great recommendations! I didn't realize until later that their patio is not covered! So cool- you can see the stars while drinking mezcal. Though I was there on a calm Monday night, everyone says the weekends are super fun with tons of energy and a DJ. (Wish I stayed in PV longer!) Eduardo, Juan, Gabriela, Abraham - you all made my night!!!!

  • 5/5 Jennifer M. 6 months ago on Google
    We expected something nice based on the reviews, but when the hostess greeted us as soon as we exited our Uber and opened a large mysterious door, we knew we found a real treasure. The ambiance feels very well designed and on trend. Our waiter, Juan, was very helpful and even helped my non drinking boyfriend with some tasty alcohol free concoctions. On Fridays and Saturdays they have a dj and dancing possible. 10/10 bar

  • 5/5 Kit K. 4 months ago on Google
    Great cocktail bar! Highly recommend coming by and checking it out if you’re in PV. Make sure to make a reso if you plan to stay of the DJ set. Music volume was perfect. We were able to still talk with everyone at the table. Interior and vibes were amazing

  • 5/5 Dermot D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great drinks! Open air lounge. Nice vibe. Cool lighting and great DJ on Saturday night.

  • 5/5 Sohee K. 2 years ago on Google
    Got a reso here day of for NYE. Having enjoyed cocktail bars in Asia, Europe, and the US, and having been to the place right across the street the night before, my expectations were quite low. However, once we arrived to this cutie little speakeasy style bar, the service and beverage quality far exceeded expectations. The staff here was friendly, service was quick, and the drinks were just delicious. We even asked if we could go out and see the fireworks on the street and come back and they allowed it. Definitely recommend this spot if you want a nice house music vibe with good drinks but in a spacious open air environment.

  • 5/5 Brian F. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best spots I've been for cocktails (anywhere, not just Puerto vallarta). My friend and I both love making and drinking cocktails and between us tried 8 of their creations. Each one was nicely balanced and hit all the right notes. Paradise was the standout for me but you can't go wrong.

  • 5/5 Bee A. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome crew at El Colibri. Kenia was super welcoming and is truly an artist! She recommended a drink based on my taste. Blew me away 👌🏼

  • 5/5 Jamie S. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Tamika & B. 2 years ago on Google
    The best cocktail lounge in Puerto Vallarta! The place is super cute! It’s a whole vibe! The Dj jammed! Great drinks! Friendly Staff! The entire El Colibri team treated us like royalty. They made sure we had everything we needed and made it their goal to make sure we enjoyed ourselves! I definitely plan on going back!!! I highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Dallas C. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved this place! Wish we could have came on the weekend when they had a DJ but it was nice to be there when it was less busy too. Drinks were amazing, great ambiance. Our server was Juan and he was wonderful. Highly recommend if you are in PV

  • 5/5 Michiel B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great cocktail bar! It's hidden behind an old store front and as you get in you find yourself in an jungle oasis of really nice surprising cocktails. The drinks are amazing, the service is great and the club/lounge music adds to the whole atmosphere. Would truly recommend!

  • 5/5 Kaley M. 2 years ago on Google
    Best cocktail we had in Mexico and super fun ambience! Will definitely be going back for a live DJ night. Great service and loved the focus on local products.

  • 4/5 Joe S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cool little cocktail bar. It has a live DJ with a great ambiance. The beer is good and nevertheless the cocktails are magnificent! Definitely a must!

  • 5/5 Pamela C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice bar, chill, sexy vibes. Great to meet a date. The drinks can be hard to understand what they’ll taste like when you’re ordering them but they normally taste great :) and the staff is super sweet always

  • 5/5 Peyman R. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice, beautiful and mellow feeling bar. Cocktail menu is amazing. Music is nice. And the staff awesome. Marina was waiting us. Such a kind, helpful and attentive lady.

  • 5/5 Erin n. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for a hand crafted cocktail! Great service. Great ambiance.

  • 3/5 Megan J. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was amazing, but cocktails just missed the mark. Even though we had a reservation, we had to wait at a high top in the entryway for 45 minutes until a table opened up.

  • 5/5 Johanna D. 1 year ago on Google
    El Colibrí was such a great time and vibe. We actually met the owner. He was awesome and joined us at our table. He loved our New York accent lol. Drinks were awesome and we will definitely be back when we visit again! Amazing hidden venue (speakeasy). Also his roof is awesome! Lol

  • 5/5 David T. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely one of my favorite spots in town, highly recommended place to visit! We came in with a group of 20 and they were able to accommodate everyone! Great atmosphere, attentive service, and quality drinks. Thank you for the memories!

  • 5/5 Victor T. 1 year ago on Google
    My girlfriend and I were looking for a cocktail bar different from the ones on the malecón and we found el colbri. Such a cool vibe after you walk through the second door into the beautiful bar and courtyard (with a retractable roof!). The bartenders Abraham, Natalia, and Juan were hella friendly and had great service. No food on Mondays but the music was great and there are DJs on the weekend. 10/10 coming back if not for the drinks or vibe, to hang with the bartenders and servers.

  • 5/5 Haleigh N. 1 year ago on Google
    LOVED this place and so happy to find it. Delicious cocktails with a fun vibe including and open air roof so it’s nice and breezy. Juan was so nice and educated us about all the nuances of every cocktails. Don’t miss it ! We are already planning on popping back in later this week!

  • 5/5 Bo C. 1 year ago on Google
    It has a great vibe and some solid craft brews and really friendly staff. Also features a retractable roof which was awesome cause we had a little Charlie Brown cloud roll through and dump some rain but then they opened the roof back up once it passed by. They also have some tasty speciality cocktails. We will definitely go back to this great little spot. Parking is a bit of an issue so it's easiest to just grab an Uber or Taxi. Besides you are there for some drinks so it's the smarter option anyway. I'm told they also have live music, they didn't the night we were there but it would be a neat spot to catch a live show. Overall it's worth the trip to grab a drink and enjoy the atmosphere

👍👍 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.
