Recently traveled to Mexico City with a friend and found this spot online. Condesa / Roma Norte is a neighborhood of Mexico City that boasts more in common with Brooklyn, Austin, or Silverlake than most of the US or surrounding areas of Mexico. This bar...sits near Hotel Condesa, which is essentially the Mexico City version of the Ace Hotel brand across the US. My friend wasn't feeling up for a drink, so I decided to drop in my last night in town anyway. I can't recall ever having gone to a bar on my own, but I figured there were plenty of artsy locals, European, or American travelers to people watch. Was happy I came out; the bar's outdoor seating is covered in foliage, a cozy nook to consume a cocktail before leaving Mexico City. Having been told I couldn't leave town without sampling variations of Mezcal, I admitted to my server (Horacio) that I had never previously been a fan. Thankfully, he did not judge! He gave a sampling of recommendations, and made great suggestions. While traveling, it can be reasonable to expect to be treated with some disdain or attitude, but in general Mexico City seems to have friendly folks, and Horacio was no exception. I would return to this bar in a heartbeat. I joked that both locals and 'gringas' like myself would have a nice time here. Enjoyed my cocktail, taste(s) of Mescal, and the friendly service on my final evening of my trip. My spanish ability is (ahem) subpar, and the staff more than compensated for my deficiency. Thanks, La Clandestina and Horacio!More
