Barcoa Agaveria- WOW. I had the immense pleasure of attending a hosted happy hour and meeting David (co-owner). The pride and thought that goes into every cocktail on the menu is impressive. David had something interesting to say about every single drink I ordered - even the $7 classic Canterino, which originated at roadside stands in Mexico. It's amazing how good tequila, fresh citrus, and Squirt can taste. The casual upstairs bar (deemed the Cantina) has a surprisingly great happy hour with $7 classic cocktails 4pm - 7pm every weekday. The bartender Ben took excellent care of us there before we headed downstairs to the elevated craft cocktail bar. I love mezcal, but I find that it's hard to get a balanced mezcal drink. Not at Barcoa- that's for sure. The cocktails are unique and thoughtful, inspired by dishes like elote and street tacos and containing fun ingredients like red cabbage liqueur. The bartender, Derek, was friendly and had great recommendations. I will definitely be back to try the rest of their menu (probably this Friday for happy hour. 😊)

The drinks here are unique, well balanced, and delicious. I loved the white lotus and the leave only footprints. I do wish they had more vegetarian food choices and a dessert or two. A friend ordered the pimento cheese dip, which I thought was good. Service was quick and nice. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate- great for date night.
