As others have mentioned, a little pricey at $ 7 – 9 for a margarita, but START here. Enjoy the best fresh, delicious, HUGE, handmade margarita you’ve ever had, then go sip on the cheaper stuff when it doesn’t matter anymore! ha ha. Great little open-air bar that only seats about 12 people, in a plaza just behind Dollar Rental Car kiosk, and a few doors down from The Giggling Marlin(where we had our WORST margarita!) Super friendly hosts, Miguel and Victor, are engaging and have lots of stories about the ladies’ bras and panties hanging from the rafters. A MUST stop on any of our visits to CSL.

Amazing drinks. Had a great time and great conversations with bartender. Wish we had another opportunity for more drinks before we had to leave back home.

I don’t drink alone but if I did it would be here. The dirty monkey, a signature drink, is a delicious guilty pleasure that tastes like a chocolate milk shake. This spot wins in the tiny outdoor bar category.

The margaritas are exactly what i imagined they would taste like when visiting Mexico. I was reluctant to pay $ 7 — $ 9 bucks but when I tasted it I realized they used fresh ingredients and good tequila. All other margaritas I had before this one tasted like turpentine or rubbing alcohol.

Absolutely the best piña colada I’ve ever had in my entire life! Fresh ingredients and fabulous bartenders. Just to be clear I’ll say it again. The best piña colada I’ve ever had in my life.

One of the greatest margaritas, the best in Cabo. Its a small bar, but good vibe! They really put their time into making the margarita and its worth it. It is on one of the main streets of Cabo, right next to Cabo Blue Bar. Worth your time to visit, atleast once on your visit.

Best margaritas in Cabo San Lucas. All fresh ingredients. Highly recommend Monkey Bar to start your night off.

We were thrilled to find Victor and Miguel at the Monkey Bar! They make fantastic and creative original lime margaritas, but their flavored ones are amazing also(2 thumbs up for the Strawberry)! We didn’t get to go back a 3rd time for«The Monkey Business», but the sample we had was amazing! Oh, and they do magic :)

Just got back from Cabo celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and found this hidden gem. Now it is a must stop every time we come back to Cabo. Watching the bartenders make these huge, delicious margaritas is half the fun– the other half is drinking them from the amazing glasses they serve them to you in! You will want to buy some to take home– like my wife! Excellent margaritas, atmosphere and service. It’s kind of hidden but it’s between Giggling Marlin and Cabo Blue. Don’t miss it and try a few!

Out on the Main Street you’ll see a palapa bar with bras and panties hanging from the ceiling and there’s a friendly bartender waiting to greet you with Toby Keith playing in the background. They make the best margaritas with the freshest ingredients sqeezing fresh limes and fruit. I had a regular margarita with Don Julio tequila that was the best because it was made fresh. My daughter got hooked on their mango margaritas that were slushy and delicious. She went back everyday for it. She also tried the Monkey Business margarita made with bananas, vanilla, milk, triple sec, tequila and Kailua, and blended and sprinkled with cinnamon. It tasted like a milkshake. Definitely stop by

Hidden just off the street you will find some of the best margaritas in Cabo! Very low key, very few seats, but watch them make your Margarita from scratch and you will be back! They have a huge selection of large tasty margaritas, and they are cheap! Not to mention they come with great service from those bartenders! Come here once and it won’t be you last.

Super cool bar fully of monkey stuff! This place comes with everything you can think of for a touristy Mexican bar, cockroaches and all! The bartenders were very entertaining and friendly to all the patrons despite the drunkenness and non-sense talking that would occur. Margaritas are claimed to be the best in town which I personally didn’t think yet at the same time they were very good and worth checking out. The bar is super small and only holds about 10 people so not so great if you’re in a large group but a good date spot.

Huge margarita. Strong. This is just a random 10 seat bar in the middle of a few shops. A place where you will see ample white people drinking.

They really are some of the best margaritas you’ll ever have. Cheap and cheerful place, too. Tough to find, so ask a local to point you in the right direction once you think you’re close.

I had read reviews about this bar with«the best margaritas in Cabo» on trip advisor but was so sad to see no reviews on Unilocal!!!This is a super special secret of cabo! To be honest, probably the highlight of my trip/cruise. We had Eduardo as our bar tender, he was so sweet and took great care of us and did in fact make the best marg I’ve ever had! We wanted some great authentic tacos and he pointed us around the corner to a little place called Gus’s…(Highly recommend them too if you love good cheap street tacos). Over all, this hidden bar was so much fun and we will most definitely be back in our future trips to cabo!(Ps pass up on the cabo wabo place right up the street, this place is SOO much better, promise)
