Bars
This tiny bar has friendly staff, classic indie music and an impressive drinks selection. Dimly lit and atmospheric, El Grillo has a real countercultural vibe. The bar offers an extensive range of local and US craft beers, as well as top-quality mezcals. Owing to its popularity, the downstairs section often fills early, but claustrophobes can always head to the terrace upstairs.

Interest in craft beers has soared in Mexico in recent years, and El Depósito is one of the best places for cerveza connoisseurs in Guadalajara. A neat, unpretentious beer garden sits outside the venue, while you’ll find an extraordinary range of craft beers once you step inside. The imported bottles are plentiful but pricey. The local range is inexpensive but mostly limited to Minerva. The Guadalajara company has become one of Mexico’s major craft-beer enterprises, offering a variety of first-rate beverages.

This place started out some years ago as a small restaurant with a few tables, and is now one of the locals’ favourite places to eat. You have to try the baked marrow, or, if you don’t fancy that, the lamb hamburger.
