A bar in Tuxtla's hotel-zone stretch of the boulevard, close to the Marriott and the airport highway, popular with the capital's younger crowd for weekend drinks and DJ sets.
Tarimitas Bar draws Tuxtla Gutiérrez's younger, weekend-oriented crowd to its spot in the city's hotel-zone stretch of the boulevard, casual dress, popular with a college-age and twenties-to-thirties crowd rather than an older clientele. DJ sets provide the music program on weekend nights, leaning toward commercial and dance tracks suited to a standing, drinking crowd rather than live instrumentation. The drinks list runs to beer and cocktails at accessible prices, without a dedicated wine or mezcal-tasting focus. The bar operates Wednesday through Saturday from 7PM to 2AM, staying closed the rest of the week; weekend nights, especially Friday and Saturday, are markedly busier than the Wednesday-Thursday opening, with the DJ sets and crowd building later into the night. There is no cover charge midweek, while some Saturdays carry a MXN 50-100 cover; there is no bottle service, and the bar does not generally take reservations, so arriving before the late-evening rush is the main way to avoid a line on Saturdays.
