Saddle up at Vaqueros Bar, a hidden gem in CDMX’s Zona Rosa. Enjoy cowboy vibes, drag shows, and gogo dancers at this iconic gay bar.
Tucked away in the heartbeat of the legendary Zona Rosa, Vaqueros Bar is a standout destination on any savvy traveler’s gay map of Mexico City. Located on the first floor of a classic 1960s building on Calle Florencia, this venue offers a unique blend of rustic charm and high-energy queer nightlife. True to its name, 'Vaqueros' (Cowboys) embraces a rugged Western aesthetic, featuring wooden accents and a welcoming vibe that draws in local gay men and international visitors alike. While the entrance is famously inconspicuous—looking more like a modest storefront than a bustling club—those who climb the stairs are rewarded with a vibrant multi-level experience. With two floors and three bars, there is plenty of space to enjoy a tequila or a cerveza while overlooking the palm-lined boulevard. The atmosphere transitions seamlessly from a relaxed lounge where you can chat over popcorn to a high-octane party spot as the night progresses. The stage frequently lights up with some of the best drag impersonations in Mexico City, featuring high-energy homages to Latin icons like Gloria Trevi and Rocío Durcal. Whether you are here for the nightly karaoke, the athletic gogo dancers in their signature cowboy gear, or the eclectic mix of 80s hits and Latin pop, Vaqueros Bar provides an authentic LGBTQ+ experience that is both unpretentious and unforgettable. It is an essential stop for anyone looking to experience the gritty, fun, and fiercely queer spirit of CDMX.
