BARCOA Agaveria is a two-level bar that honors the spirits of Mexico. Tequila, mezcal, and all things agave are the stars here. Located walking distance from the Phoenix Convention Center, Footprint Center, and other Downtown Phoenix attractions, BARCOA offers two distinct vibes -- a casual, back-alley cantina, serving affordable classic cantina cocktails in a space connected to XICO, a Latinx and Indigenous art gallery and printmaking studio; as well as a sexy basement lounge serving craft cocktails, flights of agave spirits, and a 40-page menu to help you learn about the brands. The patio is bright and cheery, and you can find rotating pop-up food vendors most nights. Almost everything at BARCOA was built by hand in Mexico. Locally owned and operated, it took over two years to build out the space, located in a historic 1928 Hardware Store. BARCOA pays homage to the hard-working men and women who produce agave spirits, and hopes to honor their craft with every sip. Happy Hour is offered from 4pm-5pm Wed-Sat in the Cantina, and the basement lounge offers a private tasting room for up to 12 where guests can truly experience the spirits of Mexico.
