My partner and I went to Bateys for a drink and live music last week. Drinks were delicious, vibe was great. HOWEVER, after one drink each we were both absolutely trashed, stumbling, out of our heads....made it back to our hotel (thankfully) collapsed, and couldn't move a muscle.
Our drinks were without a doubt, dusted with narcotics, likely muscle relaxers. As someone who takes benzos for anxiety and has had a drink or two with them I know this feeling without a doubt. For those of you who have seen bridesmaids, think of the scene with her on the plan. Mind you, my partner is 6'4 and 200 pounds and this is what ONE mixed drink did to him.
This is a known occurrence in this area of mexico, with many bars and resorts using cheap or watered down alcohol because it is more expensive and then spiking the drinks to try to trick people. It is so utterly dangerous and the outcome could have been terrible, we are lucky. Not to mention, for someone who is on other medications-- there could be unknown drug interactions resulting in devastating outcomes. PLEASE be careful.

I have some of the most fantastic food of my life when I woke up one day in Tulum for breakfast. Woman on the street recommended it I said I want cheap and good, she says Batey, around the corner. I am still in a food stupor. I have never had such quality crafted inexpensive food in my life. I had an omelette, cucumber drink with stocks with cucumber and real cucumber and it was amazing! The people here are so chill and so cool and the music is so excellent I can’t think of another place I’d want to eat. 25 stars highly recommended.

Be very careful here, you may do not get any money back. Good music, but very doggie cashier . Well over her skills, rude and unfortunately can make a very bad experience of a nice day.

Tulum is a place of many different kinds of vives in the Mojito bar, Batey: has got to be one of the coolest places to go to get good food great company, meet people that you don’t know and just have the most relaxing time of your life. A trip to Cancun without going to the Batey Bar, it’s just a mistake. I like to stay about a block away and just walk there or take a bike. I love this place.

Great bar with live music in the heart of downtown Tulum. Drinks were large, tasty and inexpensive. Bar had a mix of tourists and locals. Good vibes and a place where you can hold a conversation.

Perfect location to have a pit stop. Drink some of the best drinks you have ever had (Mango Mojito is amazing)
They serve breakfast from 0700 that is reasonably priced and the food is good.
Great serviceminded people working there with a smile on their faces at all times.

Spent a chill afternoon here drinking mojitos. The food was good, but the real reason is to sample the many mojito variations they do with fresh-pressed sugarcane. The drinks are large and therefore not especially strong, which is actually perfect for staying hydrated and buzzed on a 30+ degree Tulum day.

Great place for a drink & to watch live music. Mojitos are lovely! And a stick of sugar cane is a nice extra. Lovely relaxed holiday atmosphere. Returned for more cocktails during our visit, would recommend.

What's the name of the main manager who is on top of everything, runs the place, and gives Batey a great vibe? Thank you

I wish I knew. She is impressive and young but has been there for at least seven years.

We love this place also and have visited during the day since we are in Puerto Aventuras each year. When does the music start and do they post who is playing? We want to go there in the evening but need timing. Thanks
Written July 23, 2016
The music starts around 9pm I think but they also have some live music (more chilled) for dinner. Check out their fb page I think they have info as to who is playing on it

Givensunday, post your thoughts about the Rooster here if you have further information with regard to the "lies" you think other's are stating. I know what I saw, so I hope you are not accusing me of lying, it is smoky in the courtyard area, that's the truth.
If you are the owner of the bar, respond to the reviews, factually and informative, I am sure the TA community would be grateful for any information you can provide.
