• Cocktail Bar • Downtown Phoenix

Booked 8 times today

BARCOA Agaveria is a basement bar that celebrates the spirits of Mexico. Serving imaginative craft cocktails and a vast list of agave spirits, BARCOA is often described as "vibey," "sexy," and "the time of my life" (says some dude from Mesa). Agave spirits such as tequila, mezcal, bacanora, raicilla, and sotol, are the stars here, available as flights, neat pours, or however you like.Reservations are only available for the basement bar. Please reference the Basement Bar Menu. Above BARCOA, check out the Cantina, a casual back-alley mezcal and tequila bar that serves affordable classic cantina cocktails, and the cheery patio, which features Provecho taco truck. Pop out anytime during your visit and bring food down to the basement. BARCOA can be tricky to find. We're located on the southeast corner of 1st Avenue & Roosevelt, in the historic red brick building. Don't worry, you're not lost. It's just poor directional signage that the City refuses to fix.

Really an exceptional experience. Food was incredible and well-conceived, with the duck breast and the chawanmushi being a highlight. But what truly took things a step beyond, was the service. From the very beginning to the very end, absolutely flawless. Every person who interacted with our table, was polished, timely, and personable, and special mention to our server for being so knowledgeable and friendly. Major props to the front-of-house. Dinner took what was a special night for my partner and I, to the next level. Absolutely recommend for anybody looking to enjoy delicious food, a beautiful interior, and top-of-the-line service.
