La Negra

Bogotá


With its flashy retro logo and a soundtrack that hopscotches between salsa, vallenato, reggaeton, cumbia and rarer Colombian genres, La Negra is an informal but wildly popular crossover magnet for upper-middle-class university students and young professionals, who take turns swigging from their bottles of aguardiente (Colombia's anise-flavored local firewater) between the frenetic and contagious beats.

Get there before 10pm or prepare to wait. COP$6000 of the cover is can be recuperated in cerveza.
