Contramano Mar del Plata

Contramano Mar del Plata is a bar and dance space at Bartolomé Mitre 2010, a few blocks from the centre. The Google listing, which belonged to Punto Lounge before, now presents it as "Contramano 1984", a venue for diversity that borrows the name of Buenos Aires' pioneering gay club, opened in 1984. Reviews from 2026 describe friendly bar staff, music at a level you can talk over and a calm crowd; one July 2026 visitor said it needed more promotion to fill up, and noted the free welcome drink is always a gin and tonic. It rates 4.3 from about 100 reviews. Opening nights are not published on Google, so check @contramanomdp on Instagram before going.
