To quote Bette Davis: "What a dump!" There are dive bars and then there are dumps. This ain't a dive bar, so that only leaves one choice.
We were going to catch the ferry between Cancun and Isla Mujeres and we decided to stop here for a drink. Not because of it's charm, because it doesn't have any, but because it was close to the ferry. They are located right on the water, and I must admit that the view from their location is attractive; the bar, not so much.
We ordered a couple of drinks and even though there were no other customers (which should've raised my antennas), it took forever to get the drinks. The drinks weren't very good, so I tried to hail a server to ask for the check, but to no avail, so I got up and went to the bar. That's when I saw how filthy the place was: boxes and empty bottles everywhere; unwashed glasses on the bar top, despite the fact that 3 workers were chatting & doing nothing. The bar top was also filthy and sticky.
When I tried to pay the check with my credit card, they told me that the machine was broken and they only were accepting cash.
It's a shame that they squander a location that's worth a million dollars. read more
