Barra 7

Why we recommend Barra 7

A small, intimate bar tucked into what feels like an alleyway of the Walled City, just to the left as you enter through the Clock Tower. Narrow, not particularly busy, but a stone's throw from all the energy of the city and it has the feeling of a private discovery rather than somewhere you stumble into accidentally. The space is compact, the decor is cool, the DJ keeps things moving without making conversation impossible, and the drinks are genuinely good. Cold beers, solid cocktails. Look closely at the tiles on the walls, they're covered in sharpie signatures from people who've passed through. Ours is in there somewhere. Maybe yours will be too. Run by Grupo La Movida, the same team behind Alquímico, so the quality is there. When Alquímico's line is too long, this is where we go.

What We Love

  • One of the better hidden bar finds in the Walled City
  • Great DJ and party atmosphere without being overwhelming
  • Good cocktails and cold beers
  • Small and intimate, feels like a local discovery
  • Run by the same team as Alquímico
  • Right at the entrance to the city, easy first or last stop on a bar crawl
  • The tile wall covered in sharpie signatures is a cool touch

What to know

  • Small space, fills up quickly
  • Music level makes it more of a party stop than a place for a long conversation
  • Can be hard to find if you don't know where to look
