Wow the unpublished hours that apparently change from day to day upon whim are frustrating! I skimmed through at least a dozen website and every one had different hours for La Pasita. We decided to try our luck anyway but unfortunately it was closed so we went to a cafe next door to refuel with coffee. We also asked our server what time La Pasita would open but she just shrugged and said it changed a lot. However we got really lucky and when we left the coffee shop (around 3:15pm on Tuesday), the bar had opened! We were the only customers there, so we immediately ordered a round of the Pasita drink, which had a sweet, unique flavor. The bartender didn't speak any English but luckily we had a Spanish speaker with us who translated. Apparently if you drink 100 shots of Pasita in 2 hours, they'll pay you 50,000 pesos.... and cover the funeral costs! He told us that one person had accomplished it before, and another guy got to 92 drinks and then had to go to the hospital. Yikes! There's even a fake (I hope??) tombstone in the corner for him haha If you're luckily enough to find this place open, definitely swing by! The drinks are not exactly my style but they're definitely unique and there's so much local flavor! read more

Yeeeah! I love these authentic bars in Puebla! With the competition that they face with all the new fancy bars and restaurants that pop, get crowded and disappear few years after, a lot of them had to close or are struggling to stay open. Well, la Pasita is that immortal place where you can have... a Pasita! If you're in Puebla, you have to try one, and it doesn't matter whether you'll like it or not (it's sweet). You will find a large choice at an inexpensive price. The bartender (the owner?) is friendly. The only issue that we had is that there was no water in the restroom... But if you know the area, you also know that this happens a lot in small bars. Also I wish they were serving food. read more
