  2. Coco Beers

    How can one go wrong in a place that serves super-sized beers out of yardas - iced, bong-shaped, glass containers? It's loud and popular here, dude.

  4. La Casona de la Condesa

    The weird Jesus art is meant to be edgy but feels whacked-out. La Casona attracts an older (ie not teenage) crowd and offers solid live music every night it's open.

  5. La Cava

    Definitely a neighborhood favorite, this tiny bar illuminated with black lights seems to host lots of laughter and cocktail-induced intimacy.

  7. Mambo Café

    The cover is steep in Veracruz terms but this expansive salsa club with slick fountains and bursting colors is where Latin dancing goes down in this town. Sometimes there are lessons early on weekend nights. Check for ladies' nights specials, too.

  8. Velitas

    This popular little seaside palapa could be romantic with its tiki-torch ambience or just a laid-back place to grab a cocktail while checking out the ocean and people strolling past on the boulevard. On weekends there's live music.
