La Casa de los Mejía Godoy

Top choice in Managua


Living legends Carlos and Luis Enrique Mejía Godoy, whose folk-music explorations into the heart of Nicaraguan culture have become church hymns and revolutionary standards since they first started laying down riffs in the 1960s, have moved from their original intimate venue to larger premises, complete with a restaurant and bar. Make reservations to see the Godoy Brothers play.

Due to political unrest in the country, La Casa de los Mejia Godoy is closed indefinitely.
