Can't say enough good things about this Cantina - one of the coolest nightlife experiences I've had.
I came here with a group of friends on a Friday night. The place was packed and there were no seats available. We ordered a round of beers and listened to a man playing the piano in the middle of the cantina. Many people were singing along to well known Mexican songs. We later went to order a mixed drink and the bartender was soo generous with his tequila pours (literally the tequila was overflowing from the shot glass).
Around 11pm we heard the blast of a trumpet towards the front of the cantina and everyone started shouting and hollering. The mariachi band had arrived, and the place was completely lit. The band went around and played songs as people requested. The atmosphere was so lively and communal. Everyone was very friendly.
La Fuente has a reputation as one of the oldest cantinas in Guadalajara, and a regular crowd every weekend. It's simple, but a really fun place to hang out and grab a cerveza or a tequila drink.
