    Best bar in Antigua. Period. This is where the real Guatemalans hang out. Best prices, amazing music, and cool hangout spot. Iconic.

    We ordered a room for 5 people, as soon as we got here they said we ordered for 4 people and charge us extra for it. Secondly they are always moving and cleaning the rooms and making a lot of noise during the noon hours. In the website it showed that there is a pool, and as soon as we got there we figured out there is no pool. Overall not a good experience and i wont get back there again.

    Happy hour was truly the best priced drinks around! We had six drinks, one beer and my tab was 110.Q The drinks were fire!!!! I suggest you try Alejandro's version of a capirinha!

    This is a quirky, comfortable place with the best happy hour (1-7) in Antigua. With great prices, outstanding service, and live music, it's one of the coolest spots in Antigua.

    We spent a month in Antigua and there were a few people and a few places that will forever leave an impression after our visit. I am leaving several reviews that highlight the places we will never forget. Come here because this place is legit Guatemala. The owner (Rodrigo i think :/) is so cool. He will talk to you about Mezcal, Guatemala and even Crypto! Super cool place to have a drink and meet interesting people!

    We stumbled upon this gem years ago and it remains one of our favorite Antigua bars. Tiny, dive-y in the best way, featuring the cheapest, most delicious cocktails in town. Plus the music is always incredible. We haven't had a bad drink here but their gin & tonic and Paloma are among the best we've had anywhere.

    It’s a great little place that is by the open marketplace.. and the price is great happy hour Q10 per local beer and drinks it was perfect after walking around it’s a must stop.😀

    If you're a little weird, or want to stay off the path, this is a great spot. A hole in the wall type place. Good mix of music and atmosphere.

    Very nice atmosphere and good music. The owner is super friendly and they have happy hour between 11-16. 10q for drinks and beers. What more can you ask for:) One of the best bars in town.

    We hit this cute little cubby of a bar one night while bar hopping. The lighting was cozy, music brought chill vibes, and the drinks did not disappoint! We ordered the strawberry margarita and it was perfect!! If we weren’t so tired from earlier in the day, we would’ve stayed longer to order more drinks, however it did not disappoint!

    A great mix of locals and foreigners. Great prices, great mezcal, great music, and an unbeatable ambiance day and night.

    Having some experience being a non legal legal advisor I had to check this place out. Cool bar! Small with a eccentric decor in a convenient location I found myself returning there several times while in Antigua. Met some cool people too. Some more legal than others. Never did get to the bottom of the name...but I did get to the bottom of a tasty margarita. 🌴
