Cafayate's drinking scene is relaxed and centered around its acclaimed wine production, offering charming venues for an enjoyable evening rather than a vibrant party atmosphere.
Entertainment and Music:
Cafayate's entertainment scene complements its tranquil, wine-centric atmosphere, offering a blend of traditional folk music and relaxed evenings at local establishments.
Visitors can experience authentic Argentine folk music at *peñas*, such as Doña Argentina, which hosts live musical performances nightly. For a more laid-back ambiance, various wine bars around the main square occasionally feature live music, allowing guests to enjoy local wines in a cozy setting. The town also hosts larger annual events like the "Serenata a Cafayate," a significant folk music festival.
1. Bad Brothers Wine Experience
Type: Wine Bar & Restaurant
This venue offers a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere, ideal for savoring local wines, including those produced by Bad Brothers themselves. It pairs its extensive wine selection with a menu of excellent tapas-style food, making it a popular spot for a pleasant evening. The setting is inviting and generally lively but not overly loud.
Getting There: Located close to the main square, it is easily accessible by walking from most central accommodations in Cafayate.
2. Bierhaus Cafayate
Type: Craft Beer Bar
As a refreshing alternative to the prevalent wine scene, Bierhaus provides a vibrant setting for enjoying local craft beers. It focuses on a more casual, lively pub atmosphere where guests can unwind and sample a variety of regional brews.
Getting There: Situated within walking distance of Cafayate's main central area, making it convenient to reach on foot.
