Your Favorite Baja Bar


The few of you Nomads that like to down an adult beverage, must have a favorite establishment to share.

Here is one of mine. I bet there is a Nomad that might even know the customers here, and surely the bar.:yes:

Ken

(Pelican Reef Bar...Mulege)

Mine used to be Club Bar Miramar back in the 80s. We had too many good times there. Haven't been back since. There used to be another on the south end of the beach that we called the Popeye bar. Not sure if that was it's real name though.

Not in Baja, but I sure like Edgar's in Mazatlan. Couple blocks south of the downtown mercado.

I spent some time in the Miramar in SF, too, in the 70s-80s. Fun place; had a good jukebox. Rosita's next door had good food for cheap. Havent been back in 15-20 years.

In Baja, probably the Pelican now.

La Salina's pretty cool. Interesting criteria for specials. Walk down onto the beach with drinks, play volleyball in the back. Great selection of books for trade. Easy parking even if towing something monstrous. Good mexican combo on weekends.

I keep hearing Virgins is pretty good......but probably wont be finding out any time soon.

I seem to drink in camp, mostly. Is that a sign of alcoholism? Or just being cheap-AZZ.......

Second hand ciggy smoke is starting to get to me these days.....gawd awful in some bars at times. Oh well, it's Mexico.

Miramar in San Felipe... NOT!
Used to be good place to get together with local gringos.
Last time there with friends from NC, they wanted to try some quality tequila. I ordered shots of a high end reposado- 5 bucks a shot. Scum-sucking thieves had refilled the bottle with some cheap (clear) crap. Luckily my friends didn't really know the difference, but I did. I hear it's been bought out and will become something else. Good riddance.

The last one I visited, I guess....


...However, ...Hussongs can be a blast when it's stuffed with locals and a Mariachi Band blaring in the background! A smile and a friendly 'hola' will earn you many new friends, there!

Celito Lindo's bar has been a great place over the years...their killer margaritas have helped set the mood for fun there! Haven't been there lately since the ownership's changed...so don't know if it's still the same.

I think we should try and talk Antonio of Baja Cactus in El Rosario to build a cantina. The 'Baja Cactus Bar' could become 'Baja Famous' as THE place to stop for a cool drink and a friendly chat to swap lies with fellow Baja travelers. It gets my vote.

Used to be fun, but like I said, don't want to go back. I read somewhere that it's going to be a strip club? I'm too old to do that silly pole dance anymore!:saint:
