★ TOP 1050 BESTSpeakeasyHandshake Speakeasy
Eric van Beek, the 2018 Bacardi Legacy World Champion, operates a thirty-two-seat Art Deco speakeasy inside the NH Collection hotel that held No. 1 on North America's 50 Best Bars and No. 2 on the World's 50 Best Bars in 2025. Ninety-minute seatings move through a sixteen-drink menu where preparations run up to forty-eight hours: the Mexi-Thai fat-washes tequila with coconut oil and finishes with makrut lime leaf distillate and clarified tomato cordial. The black-and-gold room trades on intimacy and precision in equal measure. No bar in the Western Hemisphere operates at a higher level of sustained excellence. It won World's Best Cocktail Menu at the 2024 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards. It currently stands at No. 6 on The 50 Best Bars 2026, where it was named The Best Bar in North America, and No. 12 on North America's 50 Best Bars 2026.

The bar that launched Mexico City's modern cocktail era in April 2011 received the Rémy Martin Legend of the List Award in 2025, recognition of a venue that has appeared on every major ranking for over a decade.

The Margarita al Pastor, tequila, orange liqueur, and a house-made taco-spice blend, remains the signature. At No. 9 on North America's 50 Best Bars and No. 63 on The 50 Best Bars 51-100 list in 2026 (No. 52 on the 51-100 list in 2025), Limantour is the foundation the rest of the scene stands on.

★ TOP 10NORTH AMERICA'S 50 BESTCocktail BarRayo
Inspired by the Aztec legend of Mayahuel and the lightning bolt (rayo) that created agave, this Roma Norte bar builds theatrical cocktails around Mexican spirits with a storytelling ambition that matches its technique. The Soldado Medina layers tequila, chilli-infused liqueur, green herbal liqueur, Maraschino, cactus sorbet, and lime into a drink that functions as both narrative and flavor experience. It reached No. 5 on North America's 50 Best Bars in 2024, a recognition that reflects the bar's theatrical approach to Mexican spirits and its commitment to treating every drink as an origin story.

★ TOP 10NORTH AMERICA'S 50 BESTCocktail BarCafé de Nadie
Carmen Huizapol, Mapo Molano, and Jimena Lopez, celebrated Pujol veterans and vinyl enthusiasts, built a cocktail bar around 1,500 albums displayed on the walls and a program where each drink draws inspiration from a song. La Borrachita folds tequila, Earl Grey tea, lychee liqueur, tomato juice, and guava oil into a composition that sounds unlikely and tastes inevitable. The high-fidelity sound system receives the same investment as the spirits shelf. Café de Nadie proves that a bar's soundtrack can be as curated as its cocktail list. Mexico City's cocktail culture draws from sources that no other city can access, pre-Hispanic tradition, agave biodiversity, and a culinary heritage that Pujol and Quintonil translate into fine dining while Roma Norte's bars translate into liquid form. The CDMX bar scene does not follow trends; it sets them. Book the seat, or the standing spot. It currently stands at No. 60 on the North America's 50 Best Bars 51-100 list in 2026.
