El Gallo Altanero
Voted 21 on North America's 50 Best Bars 2023!
According to the organizers, in this place you can feel the true spirit of Jalisco. They even consider it an agave mecca. To get to Gallo Altanero you first have to go through Café Fitzroy and go up some stairs.
Once there, you will find a good selection of commercial tequila, but the secret is in the small collection of tequilas from independent producers and labels.
According to the list, this bar also stands out for its cocktails, which mix classic techniques with different ingredients. Although the menu changes according to the season, they offer drinks like Torero, with rested tequila, white vermouth, Italian bitters and beer bitters.
