Looking for a cheap night to kick off the week? Head down to the roof terrace at Kasa Kiwi and mix up some great views with 2 for 1 offers on micheladas and a host of beers and spirits<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For any artisanal beer lovers, this may be one of the cheapest nights in all of Central America to get your fill, with various Brooklyn and Rogue brews on offer for as little as two for Q35.<\/p>\n

Tacorazon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Salted, sweetened or spiced? 2 for 1 margarita Tuesday at Tacorazon is the perfect spot for a boozy<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

dinner with mates before heading out<\/strong>. The burritos are enormous and full of flavor. Specials include the Cabro beer-inflused pork and fried avocado. Plus, they\u2019ll deep fry your burrito! Tacorazon is known for its ethical business practices and organic sourcing. It pays employees a rare fair wage.<\/p>\n

Tuesday is a regular home for stray ex-pats seeking out cheap drinks, so come down to meet some new mates as well.<\/p>\n

King and Queens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Test your knowledge with Sean, Tetox and 2 for 1 wine at one of Xela\u2019s oldest nights<\/strong>. It\u2019s all that you\u2019d expect from a quiz, with your classic categories, games and prizes, but spiced up with some great Guatemalan trivia as well.<\/p>\n

Presented in both English and Spanish it\u2019s perfect for those looking to practice some lingo!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wednesday night<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bajo la Luna<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Looking for an evening with slightly more sophistication? Bajo la Luna is your place, with a great selection of wine all 20% off and the feel of a cozy cave. In addition to your standard red or white, they\u2019re packing mimosas, gl\u00fchwein, kalimotxos and sangria.<\/p>\n

With some of the best burgers and fondue in town, you can head for dinner and see where the night takes you. This is the best date night in Xela<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Salsa \u2013 Pool and Beer \u2013 7 to 1am (10-21, 12 Avenida) Zone 1<\/u><\/h3>\n

Pool and Beer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Another classic Xela night. Take your moves from class to club and learn some new tricks<\/strong>, Wednesday at Pool and Beer.<\/p>\n

Even if you\u2019re the guy with two left feet, there\u2019s plenty to do away from the dance floor with pool and table football.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thursday night<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Karaoke \u2013 King and Queens \u2013 10 to 1am (13-27, 7. Calle) Zone 1<\/u><\/h3>\n

King and Queens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A big favorite in Xela for a long time. Everyone is welcome, whether you think you can wow us or if you\u2019re bad enough to pull some laughs.<\/p>\n

Plenty of Dutch courage flying about with King and Queens policy of double measures for every drink<\/strong>. No messing!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Musica Independiente<\/u> \u2013 El Cuartito \u2013 8pm to 10:30pm (13 AVE. 7-09 ZONA 1,)<\/u><\/h3>\n

Shamrock is the place to be Friday night! Kick-off the night with a top local acoustic artist from 8 till 10pm, followed by DJ DIZAM (our favorite in town) from 11 till 1am.<\/p>\n

Think you\u2019ve tried every drink? Perfect place to find something unique with Shamrock\u2019s very own Irish Tequila<\/strong>. Shamrock is also known for serving up food with organic ingredients (try the pupusas!), hosting fundraisers and maintaining ethical business practices.<\/p>\n

When in Ireland, drink Guinness! Whether it\u2019s your go to drink at home or you will be trying for the first time you can also get your hands on the famous Irish beverage in Shamrock.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kasa Kiwi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A new addition to our selection of events here, but sure to be a big hit! Kasa Kiwi will be serving up either churrasco or tacos <\/strong>, courtesy of Tortumbo and Tacorazon, 12-3pm every Sunday.<\/p>\n

Top this off with ping pong and beer pong up on the terrace, this is the perfect spot for Sunday day drinking.<\/p>\n

Tec\u00fan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For chilled Sunday night you can head down to Tec\u00fan where they regularly have live music. The great food and warm atmosphere<\/strong> of the Pasaje Enriquez makes it the perfect place to relax. Tec\u00fan is known for its pizza and sometimes on Sunday the second pizza is half price!<\/p>\n

Though this is a regular event, it does not happen every Sunday, but you can check on the live music for the whole week on the whiteboards outside the bar.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

WILDCARD<\/strong><\/h1>\n
