The 35 Best Restaurants in Cartagena, Colombia | Eater

"Cartagena didn’t have many decent cocktails bars in 2013, so the owners of El Barón opened this haven to classic drinks and cutting-edge mixology trends. They put clear effort into everything they do, from the ice cubes to the glassware to the decorations, but most of all the cocktails. Go for something fruity like the Pintor de Anécdotas with rye, oloroso sherry, banana-strawberry shrub, and blackberry-soy reduction, or feel the cooling tingle of the Arquitecto de Inviernos with eucalyptus-infused vodka, Fernet-Branca, aloe vera, and citric acid. The tapas menu shows off that dedication as well, with spicy fried chicken, lamb kofta, ceviche, shrimp rolls, and pork samosas. Located in the beautiful plaza of San Pedro Claver, the bar is the best place to relax with a drink after a nice walk around the walled city. [$$]" - Juliana Duque

Today we enjoyed a wonderful short break at El Barón in Cartagena. The atmosphere was vibrant yet relaxed, perfect for a quick escape from the city’s heat. We had a cold latte and a small snack. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Overall, El Barón offered a memorable and cozy experience, and we’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a charming spot to unwind in Cartagena.

We stopped by for cocktails and tapas and could not have been happier. Our sever was very helpful choosing from their fantastic cocktail menu and the crab tostadas and charcuterie board were plenty for the two of us. The square was lively with performers and vendors but they respected us when we said we weren't interested. Definitely worth sitting outside after the sun has gone down, I highly recomend.

Excellent ambience, great drinks and food. A bit small but its cozy. Music volume could be lower.

My friends and I would rate this bar six stars if we could. We started eating at an outside table with an an excellent server, who gave us outstanding attention, and the food was delicious. We then took the party to the inside back bar both the front bar in the back bar are gorgeously decorated with lovely atmosphere, but in the back bar, the DJ was incredible and the bartender was incredible. We had so much fun dancing and enjoying the delicious craft cocktails the entire staff was top-tier and all of the offerings were decadent and just a beautiful atmosphere. The vibes were excellent. So much so that we plan to return again tonight! I would highly highly recommend this bar and say that it is my favorite bar in all of Cartagena!

Insane drink menu and overall cocktail experience. The menu itself is highly thought out and masterfully designed, and the drinks themselves are unique, flavorful, and enjoyable. The bar staff were eager to talk about the bar's background and the meaning behind the different seasonal cocktails. Highly recommend stopping by here!

10/10 to food, service, cocktails and overall atmosphere. The roti chicken and burrata were top notch. Fried chicken was to die for. Roti chicken was finger licking good that I ended up ordering again. Cocktails were amazing. Location is perfect. A must visit if you are in Cartagena!!

Had a lovely time at El Barón in Cartagena with family and friends! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming — the perfect spot to unwind and connect. I had the Veranera, a cocktail crafted by Luna with pineapple, lavender, and green tea — and wow… it was absolutely amazing. So refreshing and perfectly balanced. Can’t wait to go back for another round. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!

El Baron has a limited menu but excellent quality food and cocktails. There is limited seating inside and a spacious outdoor seating area. The service was great, and the food was delicious with generous portions. There were some very creative signature cocktails. The Rosarito was an interesting balance of sweet and slightly bitter presented creatively with tiny hearts in a foamy top and a spicy rim for a kick. The Puro was stronger with smoke that swirled in the glass, enhancing both flavor and taste. I'd recommend this spot for the creativity of the drinks alone, but the food is also great, though limited in portions. Mainly burgers, sandwiches, and tapas. I highly recommend the "macho" plantain cake. It's delicious!
