Description
In the heart of Montevideo, enjoy a 100% Uruguayan experience at the traditional Bar Facal, one of the city's cultural icons.
We invite you to enjoy an authentic tasting of Uruguayan mate, served as the locals drink it: with a thermos, mate, and bombilla. You will learn how this drink, which is part of everyday life for all Uruguayans, is prepared and shared.
Our staff will tell you all the secrets, customs, and curiosities of the mate ritual, so you feel like a true local.
The experience is completed with a sweet touch: you can choose between a delicious churro filled with dulce de leche or a traditional cornstarch alfajor, both handmade.
Bar Facal is also known for its iconic fountain with padlocks and the statue of Carlos Gardel, both popular tourist spots for taking pictures.
