Los Tres Tiempos is- it really hits all the marks- beautiful ambiance, spectacular views on their rooftop and bar, a cocktail bar below with some of the best drinks in Guatemala, and authentic Guatemalan food, you can’t go wrong here. It’s an amazing time and they have the cutest places to sit by the window to look out at the city while dining.

Fridas is famous in Guatemala, and a perfect spot for beautiful photos and Instagram moments. The walls are full of vibrant colors inspired by the artist Frida. Check them out on Thursdays and Fridays for live music while dining in their restaurant or bar.

Featured in the New York Times, Sobremesa is the art gallery restaurant of Alexander Ferrar, the Bahamian author, artist, and chef. It strives to offer guests impeccable service and out of this world flavor and top dining experiences. “The fine art gallery and restaurant Sobremesa, and the satellite exotic ice cream shop around the corner, embody this concept.” Try their Cognac & Calabaza icecream, made with a scoop of Cognac Ice Cream and caramel with apples.

Café Sky in Guatemala really gives you epic rooftop views of the volcano sky lines in Antigua. It is one of the PERFECT spots to catch the sunset while sipping on Guatemalan coffee or hot chocolate. They serve breakfast lunch, and dinner, and are known for their great drinks at the bar.

Once a cinema, Lucky Rabbit is now one of the most popular night spots in town. It’s basically a guaranteed good night, and the young crowd, beer pong tables and projected movies on the walls enhance its buzzing atmosphere. The music is good, too, with separate areas for house and dance.

If you want to party the night away, Las Vibras de la Casbah is a good choice. Located near the Santa Catalina arch, this split-level disco has a dance floor that’s always packed. The music is a mix of local and Latin, hip-hop and electronic, though as the night progresses it becomes more electro-focused. There’s an open-air terrace at the front if you need a bit of fresh air after dancing.

While this is more of a dive bar than a club, Café No Se is known for being one of the best places to party in the city. Famous for being the first mezcal bar outside of Mexico, this candlelit bar is full of artistic characters, quirky decor and thumping live music. The shadowy bar is also one of the best places in the city to enjoy a bit of people-watching, but as the night grows late it’s also used as a makeshift dance floor.

Again, while it’s not an actual club, Reilly’s holds a key position in Antigua’s nightlife scene. This is a proper Irish tavern – a serious drinking bar, the place in the city to go if you feel like getting inebriated. It’s been new and improved, and has no fewer than four bars, a decent deck, pool table, good food menu, live music and, of course, Guinness on tap.

Located just north of Parque Central, Whisky Den & Coffee Bar is a great place to kick off your night.. and perhaps end it. This cool bar offers a varied selection of world-class whiskeys and coffee, so it’s perfect if you need a pick-me-up. Open from morning until the last customer leaves, the Antigua curfew isn’t always enforced here.

Just off Parque Central, this sprawling bar tavern has wall-length sofas, murals of literary and sports heroes, and board games. Upstairs is a popular and lively rooftop bar, and downstairs you'll have your selection of ambiance preference, with three bars you can choose from. Round up a gang for the trivia nights, but take care if you overindulge: we're never too sure about a bar that has its own tattoo parlour at the back.
