Tres Monos

In the heart of Buenos Aires’ bustling Palermo Soho district, a cocktail haven awaits those daring enough to embrace its punk-inspired allure. With neon lights casting an electric glow over graffiti-clad walls, this intimate bar pulsates with an energy reminiscent of a rock concert. Yet, beneath its rebellious exterior lies a commitment to sustainability and Argentinian pride. The masterminds behind this eclectic spot, Charly Aguinsky, Sebastián Atienza, and Gus Vocke, have crafted a unique drinking experience by incorporating local grains into their house-made spirits like sake and bourbon-style whiskey. Their seasonal menu is a testament to innovation, featuring creations such as the Vuelta Nah Manzana, a cocktail that marries house whiskey with homemade loquat liqueur and fresh green apple juice.

Though the bar boasts limited seating, its vibrant personality more than compensates, drawing locals and tourists alike to its curbside charm. While the menu lacks traditional food offerings, the bar makes up for it with an array of spirits and creative cocktails priced at around $6 each. Embracing an educational spirit, it hosts a drinks academy, ensuring patrons leave not just satisfied but enriched.
