Julia's: on Cuauhtemoc by the corner of Chihuahua (metro Hospital General in Doctores [don't use this metro at night]).

I passed Julia's one day walking back to my apartment from the metro and had to do a double take. Who would have thought that one of the cheapest dive bars in town would be in the lovely Colonia Roma Norte? At 12 pesos a beer and 30 pesos a pitcher, the prices are unbeatable...plus the place is one of those rare dive bars that is clean. I've never been to Julia's when it was completely packed but they get bonus points for playing great music (often 70s funk and disco) most of the times I've gone. The place is often closed by 10 or 11pm but makes a great after-work-prefunk stop on Fridays. Don't let the sign on the photo fool you, it's not a restaurant so don't go there with a big appetite.
