Bola Ocho: Authentic Pool Hall
ViejoGringo Says:
It doesn't have a sign and doesn't advertise, but it is the real deal: an upstairs pool hall with a dozen or so tables where the locals, both Mexican and gringo like to hang out, shoot some pool and have a beer. Not a heavy scene, it caters to grandpas, teenagers and anyone...

Look at the local policemen... aren't they cute?!

La Terraza: do not eat in this restaurant
Jordioc Says:
We ate at the La Terraza restaurant in August of 2007. The place clearly ows its abundant clientele to its location, right next to the astonishing church of Parroquia de San Miguel Arcangel (on Sollana street), the main religious temple in town. The menu looked overpriced...

Laura_Mexico Says:
This is San Francisco Temple.... I would have loved to see the inside of the church but unfortunately there was a funeral taking place in front of the main door when we passed by (before leaving town) and we could not go in. The architecture of the facade and the dome - not...
