Great Tex-Mex Bar in Barrio Alto, Lisbon

Country forums / Western Europe / Portugal

If you're tired of Euro-disco, rap, punk and electronica you're in luck . Go to Mezcal - Bar Mexicano,
Travessa Agua da Flor 20, in the uphill part of Bairro Alto. Open from about 10pm to 2am.

The guy has an excellent collection including Freddie Fender, Los Lobos, Texas Tornados, assorted mariachi. His mojitos are over the moon and cheap creative shots abound. Try a Sangre de Christo - absinthe, cinnamon schnapps and some red stuff with a flaming slice of lemon on top. You will be kissing his hand in gratitude after the first couple.
