Ocho7Ocho

Ocho7Ocho Buenos Aires

Away from the main drag of the ever-sprawling Palermo district and on the edge of up-and-coming Villa Crespo, this former speakeasy, Ocho7Ocho, has recently gone above board. By night, burly doormen give the only indication of what lies behind the heavy wooden door, and yet even an out-of-towner can’t fail to find it (Ocho7Ocho – ie 878 – is its street number). Inside, exposed bricks form part of a stylishly “unfinished” décor that is typical of many of the city’s recent renovation projects. The main attraction, however, is the dazzling back-lit bar, offering an already legendary collection of whiskys.

It doesn’t much get better than this: sipping a cocktail amid Casa Bar’s stylish, yet understated decor as you ponder the adventures that are to be had in Buenos Aires.

Mundo Bizarro

Mundo Bizarro Buenos Aires

Take a walk on the weird side in this oh-so-trendy bar/restaurant, Mundo Bizarro, which is considered by many the best joint for cocktails in town. Dim reddish lighting and candles make for a flirtatious night’s fun as you coyly glance over the top of yet another daiquiri to-die-for. Or watch a saucy ‘b’ movie over someone’s shoulder in this eclectic American diner meets classic cocktail bar. A must.

Sullivan’s

Sullivan’s is the Irish pub in the heart of Soho with live music upstairs and a summer terrace. It’s everything you want in a pub – Guinness on draft, bartender banter and attitude, and a dim, cozy atmosphere. Plus it’s in Palermo Soho, full of gorgeous people who have no concept of stress or hostility and have never met the phrase “bad drunk.” As they say (in English) on a popular radio show here in Buenos Aires, “You’re a winner!”Why Sullivans? Because sometimes you need to go to a pub where you’re not the foreigner freak, where you understand the menu, and where everybody knows your name – or at least they aren’t surprised that it’s Frank, and not Francisco.

Carnal

Carnal

“Arrive early” is the often-heard advice for Carnal, a popular watering hole in Palermo. However, it’s quite possible you’ll arrive through its hallowed doors to find the street-level bar practically empty. Don’t be fooled: in summer, it’s all about the rooftop terrace, which is consistently packed with style-conscious locals. When it’s time to move on, either take the easy option (the Niceto nightclub, directly opposite), or get some recommendations from Carnal’s fingers-on-the-pulse crowd. With so little room to manoeuvre on the terrace, intimacy is unavoidable and you’re bound to have made friends.

Bar Seddon

Bar Seddon

If you want to have an extremely authentic Buenos Aires experience, try whiling away an afternoon or evening having coffee, drinks, or a meal in one of the city’s famous “notable cafes and bars”, Bar Seddon. A few years ago, a city government commission drew up a fairly comprehensive list of 53 notable bars and cafes and awarded them this special status due to either their historical, cultural or architectural importance to the city of Buenos Aires. Many of these establishments have been in operation since the nineteenth century, and upon entering one of them you are quickly transported back to the city’s aristocratic roots.One picturesque member of this exclusive club of bars and cafes is Bar Seddon, a San Telmo hang-out spot that was converted into a bar from a nineteenth-century pharmacy.
