Bar entertainment in Quito

  1. A

    Tijuana

    On Reina Victoria, around Santa María and Pinta, there are several wildly popular bars with packed weekend dance-floors. The area is flooded with bar-hoppers, taxis and hotdog vendors, but it's a dangerous area after dark, so don't wander far from the club entrances. Inside you're fine. Tijuana is a favorite, blasting out a broad mix of international dance music.

    Ananké

    The newest branch of Ananké brings Bohemian style to the Mariscal. In addition to the tasty wood-fired pizzas, Ananké hosts an excellent lineup of musical talent including jazz, salsa, ska, funk, cumbia and reggae. Even if there’s nothing on, the outdoor courtyard is an idyllic spot for an evening drink.

    Naranjilla Mecánica

    One room is covered entirely in red fur and outside, grass abuts the carpet beneath a VIP hammock. Cool art adorns the walls and an ultra hip crowd sips blood-red cocktails to house and techno. In other words, it doesn't get much hipper than this.

    Ta Güeno

    A bohemian air, friendly vibe, a wonderful candle-lit terrace overlooking Guápulo, and big pitchers of delicious canelazo make this the most popular bar in Guápulo.
