I understand people can smoke in Mexico pretty much where they want. I just would prefer not to sit right next to them. The bartender assured me no one was smoking near where he said... More

Went to Happy Endings Cantina and met Gene the owner. What a nice and friendly guy. It's not often you find a owner who takes time to talk to his patrons. We loved all the signatures and t-shirts from other firefighters and police officers from around the world. I was able to sign the wall and my son was able... More

It's hard enough to find a cop bar in the states, but it was amazing to find one in CSL, Mexico. The owner was extremely friendly and took us around the bar to introduce us to all the cops he knew from around the world. If you're a police officer or a firefighter, he wants you to sign the wall.... More
