  1. A

    Mythology

    The iconic nightspot in an iconic party town, Mythology advertises itself as ‘only for gods’; whether you will feel god-like the morning after is debatable. Early in the night it’s dominated by rafting groups watching videos of their exploits on the big screen. After midnight the dance floor dependably goes wild, to the sounds of ’80s classics, Latino dance favorites and the guy next to the DJ whose job is apparently to shout encouragement to the sweating hordes.

    Caos

    At last – a nightclub just as Miami Vice tells us a nightclub should be. Make your entrance by sashaying down a neon-illuminated transparent Perspex stairway whose innards are home to some unfortunate, sensorily overstimulated carp. Order a drink at the massive, garish bar while admiring the Inca-styled water feature before hitting the shiny dance floor. The crowd here tends to very young locals, and music is a mixed bag.

    Indigo

    Indigo is the perfect bar to warm up for a big night out, with fresh Thai and Peruvian food (mains from S15), good coffee, games, hookah pipes and famous mojitos. Genuinely friendly staff, comfy couches, an open fire and a seriously cool circus vibe (there are swings!) make it hard to move on. Highly recommended.

    Cross Keys

    Cross Keys is the most established expat and traveler watering hole in town. It’s smothered in the trappings of a typical British pub, with leather bar-stools and plenty of dark wood. As well as a huge list of British beer, it offers good-value comfort food. Some say the S15 steak is the best-value meal in town.

    Bullfrogs

    This gloriously glamorous new place, run by high-profile hipsters, offers a bit of everything. There’s cafe service from breakfast until 11pm, live music every night, billiards, beanbags, fairy lights and hookah pipes. Open early till late.

    Norton Rats

    Run by a motorcycle enthusiast, this down-to-earth bar overlooking the Plaza de Armas has the best damn burgers in town. It’s also got TVs, darts and billiards to help you work up a thirst.

    Pepe Zeta

    The place for cuzqueños to see and be seen, Pepe Zeta is a cool and breezy, place with bamboo decor and a bewildering array of unusual, uncomfortable yet fascinating seating.

    There’s no cinema in Cuzco, but there are a few DVD lounges on Procuradores. Cinema San Blas sometimes shows free art-house movies.

    Teatro Kusikay

    Modern dance, wild costumes and ancient culture collide in Cuzco’s own Broadway-style spectacular, which is highly recommended by all who see it.

    Inka Team

    Though it may change names, this place usually has the most up-to-the-minute electronic music collection, with trance, house and hip-hop mixed in with mainstream. There are chill-out sofas upstairs but this isn’t the place for chat. A good mix of locals and tourists hang out here. Happy hour is 9pm to midnight.
