Bar Sur
Tiny, atmospheric tango bar where musicians and dancers perform just a few feet from your table. Operating since 1967, it feels like stepping into old Buenos Aires.

Doppelgänger
Dimly lit cocktail bar with inventive drinks and a speakeasy feel. The bartenders are serious about their craft and the crowd skews late-twenties to forties.
Gibraltar
British-style pub that's become a fixture of San Telmo's expat scene. Pool table, decent pub food, and a reliable spot to watch international football matches.
La Puerta Roja
Speakeasy-style bar hidden behind an unmarked red door on a residential street. Ring the bell to enter; inside you'll find a relaxed crowd and well-made cocktails at reasonable prices.
El Viejo Almacén
One of Buenos Aires' most storied tango venues, running since 1969 in a colonial-era building. The nightly show features professional dancers and a live orchestra.
