Lula is a small french-style bistro located in Bogota's north side. The small, warm setting offers a relaxing atmosphere to share with friends. Outdoor tables are pet-friendly and great for sitting down on a sunny day, or people watching during CicloVia. Although you can select breads and pastries from the counter at any time of day, you will get a set menu for brunch, lunch or dinner. With offerings ranging from home-made jams, calentaos, huevos elegantes, and duck confit, Lula is sure to please!

Daniel D&W is a great spot, whether you’re looking for a nice meal or just a quick drink. There’s a daily happy hour from 3-7pm with national and imported beers starting at 5.500 up to 9.000 along with delicious tapas, all priced at 7.000. The restaurant is spread out over two floors; the top floor is separated into different rooms. The décor is unique in each area, but subtle and streamlined in basic colours. The wait staff were friendly, accommodating and the service was quick. Highly recommended!

One of Bogota's newest restaurants, Gordo, prides itself on it's Brooklyn-style food and drink choices.  And while the food is rich and flavorful (with one of the best burgers in town) and the drinks are superb, one of the best features of Gordo is its continuous playlist of great American songs.  Kick back in comfy couches or on the patio and enjoy some homemade pretzels, a delicious cocktail, and catch up with new and old friends while listening to some American jazz, classic rock, or some golden oldies...it's bound to be a good time!

Modern Mexican in Bogota's trendy Macarena neighborhood. Your evening begins with a choice of delicious cocktails-- we recommend the jalapiña. At the same time, the bilingual head chef and owner will ask you about food preferences and allergies. She will explain that there is no menu at Agave Azul, and that you will be sent course after course until you tell her to stop (it's a hard decision, because you will want to know what comes next as your belly is bursting). Selections vary according what is fresh, available, and in season. The atmosphere is clean and cozy. Don't miss the special place. One of Bogota's best restaurants!

Unique concept: live mixing of vocals and instrumentation from two separate sound booths. The new location (previously in Usaquen) is much bigger and better located. Above the already famous club Bardot, it's becoming a must in this well known neighborhood.

Party to your favorite hits from the 80s and 90s. And don't worry, there are plasma TVs that also show the music videos. Full 80s is FUN. It's not 80s chic or trendy or exclusive, and it's not trying to be better than it is. Great place for a group.
