El Aguijón
José Calama and Reina Victoria

be put to the test.

Strawberry Fields
José Calama and Juan León Mera
Strawberry Fields is a (surprise!) Beatles-themed bar with a few locations in Quito, in-
cluding a cozy one in the heart of La Mariscal. The atmosphere is relaxed with cushy vel-
vet enclaves and candlelit tables in the presence of a ridiculous amount of Beatles memor-
abilia.

The Attic
Juan León Mera and Lizardo García
The Attic is that place your mother warned you about, with blasting Top 40 and a meat
market vibe. Located in a dingy top-floor enclave, it does indeed feel like an attic, but
strong, cheap drinks and flashing lights help to forget all that. Nevertheless, it's hugely
popular with young female tourists and local 20-something men.
