Bar Mauro, Ciudad de México

Despite opening two brief years ago, Bar Mauro has set pulses racing to pick up a slew of awards. It most recently skyrocketed to rank No.2 on The 50 Best Bars North America 2026. So what has captured drinkers' hearts and minds? Housing two timeless spaces – an intimate lobby-style bar with a few scattered tables that leads to the bijou bar – its sibling owners call it 'golden age meets new nostalgia'.Seasoned bartending brothers Ricardo and Eduardo 'Yayo' Nava have crafted a retro-chic Italian watering hole that pays tribute to their grandfather Mauro Mendoza while also illuminating aperitivo culture. Given that the brothers still tend bar, both the experience and the ambience are highly personal. The nostalgia harks back to 1970s Italy, the decor lovingly giving protagonism to sepia photographs of a dapper Sr Mendoza, while shelves display vermouths and amari. Mirrors, vertically placed teal tiles and modernist touches are additional nods to Milan's fashion capital status appreciated by stylish regulars who have made this their home.
