Bar Berta

Fodor's Choice

At what's said to be Taxco's oldest bar (it opened in the 1930s), a tequila, lime, and club soda concoction called a Berta is the specialty. Watch out for Taxco's high curbs and ankle-turning cobblestones after you down a few of those. You can also sample local mezcal here.

Container City

You'll find a wide range of bars, food stalls, and other diversions at this trendy and festive complex made up entirely of repurposed shipping containers, featuring plenty of outdoor seating. You'll also find galleries and shops that are great for people-watching. It's a favorite stop after visiting the nearby pyramid and Museo Regional de Cholula.

Licorería San Pedrito

Drop by this cozy lounge with a pleasant terrace to sample some of the best craft cocktails in town, along with an extensive list of fine mezcals. There's a good selection of food as well.
