    Pata Negra is easily one of the best bars I visited in Mexico City--both for the cocktails and the…read moreatmosphere. I was captivated by the warm, eclectic ambiance--shelves stacked with old books, cozy little crannies, and fascinating antique items tucked into every corner. It felt like stepping into a hidden gem where every detail added to the charm. I ordered the As de Corazones, a gin-based cocktail with raspberry, egg white foam, and a spritz finish. It was hands-down the best cocktail I had in CDMX--beautifully balanced, slightly tart, and perfectly smooth. I also tried the Josita, which was incredibly refreshing (and deceptively strong!), making it the perfect drink to sip on while soaking in the atmosphere. Service was friendly and attentive, with bartenders who clearly know their craft. Whether you're a cocktail lover or just looking for a great spot to unwind, Pata Negra is a must-visit. (I even went back as a goodbye to CDMX on my last night)

    Cool vibes the old books give the place character. We had a few beers, some shots and mixed drinks…read more The drinks were good. They had a few TVs with some sports on which is why we chose this place. Service was friendly, and quick to take your initial order but after that it was kinda hard to order a second or third drink you really had to flag them down. We came back on a second visit and they were out of some of the beers we ordered the previous visit. On the plus side the beers were ice cold. Much colder than out of the refrigerator which made it so easy to drink.

    The MEX airport is under construction, so it seems all the lounges moved around. The Priority Pass…read moreshowed this lounge was elsewhere, but I came across it trying to find the Centurion Lounge. I don't know how this lounge got all the good reviews. Seating was limited. Self-served food was subpar and no dishes or utensils. The server gave us a menu and never came back to take our order. We had to order the food at the bar. (Priority Pass gives you one main dish per person and one drink per person. Other items on the menu are separately charged as noted.) I don't have a strong urge to come back. I'd rather check out other lounges if I'm back in Mexico City airport.

    If you have a priority pass, then the Grand Lounge Elite in Mexico City's Benito Juarez Airport is…read morea qualified lounge. It is definitely not a bad way of killing time as they assign you a recliner seat, where you can have wait service for a limited menu of food and soft drink. Comfort level is not bad, but it was too warm for my preference. The place had no AC and it was cooled with some fans blowing lightly. If you are flying Volaris, this is conveniently located and you will find this lounge close to gate 19. They had a limited buffet of soups, salads, and breads. I didn't indulge in that. I thought of ordering a burger but ended up ordering a mollete with cochinita pibil. Wasn't bad but wasn't great either. Also got some cold water and coca cola. The coca cola was served with ice, but the fountain drinks were a little flat. Overall, the experience was okay and far better than being at the gate without inclusive food/drinks. Service was friendly and was happy to have access to clean bathrooms. Apparently, they intermittently have manicures and massages; however, I didn't see that as I came for a relatively late flight.
