Cabildo Bar

Über diesen Ort Cabildo Bar

Cabildo Bar operates in Ciudad Vieja, Montevideo's historic Old City and the nucleus of the city's colonial heritage — a compact peninsula of nineteenth-century architecture, narrow streets, art deco buildings, and independent restaurants that has been undergoing a sustained cultural renaissance. The neighbourhood's combination of historical character and creative energy has made it a natural home for LGBTQ+-friendly establishments that draw on the broader bohemian culture of the area rather than defining themselves exclusively by gay identity. Cabildo Bar is the accessible, reliably welcoming option for an evening drink in the Old City: the kind of bar where the clientele is mixed across the LGBTQ+ spectrum and where the atmosphere is conversational and relaxed rather than club-oriented. Ciudad Vieja's compact geography makes Cabildo a natural part of an evening that begins with dinner at one of the neighbourhood's restaurants and continues to the bars and clubs elsewhere in the city. The area's colonial architecture — some of it beautifully restored, some still in process — provides an atmosphere that is entirely specific to Montevideo and that contrasts productively with the more beach-oriented character of the Pocitos neighbourhood to the east.
