4 Best Nightlife in Guadalajara, Mexico

Appealing and unpretentious, La Fuente opened in this location in 1950. The cantina draws business types, intellectuals, and blue-collar workers, all seeking cheap drinks, animated conversation, and live music. Above the bar, look for an old bicycle. It's been around since 1957, when, legend has it, one of a long list of famous people (most say it was Jesús Álvarez del Castillo, founder of local newspaper El Informador) left the bike to pay for his drinks. 

For some local color, stop at La Maestranza, a renovated 1940s cantina full of bullfighting memorabilia.

Live Mexican music, drinks, and a good vibe draw crowds to this bar and grill, which also serves fantastic Mexican food with a modern twist.
