3 Best Nightlife in San Miguel de Allende and the Heartland, Mexico

Don't miss the trendy Bar de Los Juaninos, in open air atop the Hotel de Los Juaninos, for the best view of Morelia's cathedral, and proper cocktails to complement it. The bar pushes champagne, too, and it has a great tequila and mezcal selection—even if it is a bit overpriced. It closes at 5 pm on Sunday.

Live salsa, cumbia, and other Latin tunes are played at La Porfiriana every night from 10:30 pm to 3 am.

Recommended as much for its food as for the attractive bar-restaurant's decor and its huge menu of mezcals from Oaxaca, Michoacán, and Jalisco, as well as expansive wine list, Tata Mezcalería offers tasting menus and specialty appetizers featuring ingredients typical to Michoacán. Wednesday beginning at 8 pm, local musicians set up to entertain with different styles of music each week.
