HANDSHAKE BAR spans two levels, each offering a selection of our most iconic cocktails. Both spaces provide a warm, intimate atmosphere. One level is slightly larger to better accommodate guests.

Reservation Duration:
Reservations last 1 hour and 30 minutes, allowing time to enjoy our cocktails and unique ambiance.

RESERVATION POLICIES:
The maximum number of guests per reservation is six. For groups of five or more, a deposit of $250.00 MXN per additional guest is required, processed via credit card through Open Table.

Multiple reservations and combining tables from different bookings are not allowed. There is a 15-minute grace period; after this time, the reservation will be marked as a no-show.

Deposits are non-refundable if you do not arrive within the grace period.

The waiter pressed us all the time to finish quickly. They brought us the bill without asking for it, they practically kindly chased us away. Everything was very rushed, the drinks are mediocre, bad actually, it was not a good experience.

Buen ambiente, y excelente atención por parte del personal. Recomendado reservar porque manejan tiempos de espera altos. Mi grupo y yo teníamos altas expectativas de los cocteles, y sentimos que pudieron ser mejores, o al menos, no sobresalieron considerablemente con respecto a otros bares de la ciudad. Buena experiencia en general.

The entire experience, the shouted welcome from staff upon entering, warm towels and a delicious snack at the table were appreciated as we perused the menus. 90 minutes was time enough to enjoy the food, drinks and ambiance.
