The Best Margarita Bars In Mexico City
When you think of Mexico, you think of margaritas. This refreshing drink, typically made from tequila, triple sec, and lime or lemon juice, is perfect on a summer day — though if you drink too many, it may not leave you feeling as fresh as the daisy for which it’s named. Mexico City is full of quirky bars and cantinas where you can pick up some great versions of this classic. Here are the best options the capital has to offer.
1. Licorería Limantour
Bar, Cocktail Bar, Mexican, Cocktails, Wine, Beer
A renowned and highly rated Mexico City bar, Licorería Limantour is one of the best places to get your margarita fix in the Mexican metropolis. Located in the infamously hipster Roma Norte neighborhood, this watering hole is suitably trendy and is regularly packed with locals and tourists due to its reputation and appeal. However, if you want to break away from their noteworthy margaritas al pastor, which use Cointreau and miel de agave, they also offer a rotating, monthly cocktail menu.

7. Fonda El Refugio
Fonda El Refugio
A pricier option for an exquisite margarita, Fonda El Refugio offers traditional Mexican cuisine and a highly rated dining experience. Known for hosting the celebratory dinner of Octavio Paz way back in the 90s, this stalwart of the Mexican cuisine scene is still going strong. Its margaritas are small but perfectly formed, packing a formidable flavor punch.
