Ecuador
A high-altitude capital where a rooftop over the colonial Old Town sits a short ride from craft breweries and gin bars in La Floresta and La Mariscal. Here are the Quito bars our editors send people to first.
Rooftop Bar · Centro Historico
A rooftop terrace on Calle Mejia with a 360-degree view over the Old Town, open until midnight with live music Friday and Saturday nights. The sunset view is the reason to come early.
Craft Beer · Centro Historico
Quito's first microbrewery, set in an 1850s colonial building near Iglesia de San Agustin. Six house beers pour alongside wood-fired pizza from 4pm, closed Sundays.
Craft Beer · La Mariscal
A German craft beer hall brewing to the 1516 purity law since 2011, on Joaquin Pinto in La Mariscal. House lagers and wheat beers run beside schnitzel and pretzels.
Cocktail Bar · La Floresta
A La Floresta bar known for gin and tonics built on Ecuadorian botanicals, with house beers on the side. A relaxed sit in the city's most creative neighbourhood.
