Zarzo · Rooftop Bar · Medellin
A live-music rooftop with a jazz-and-soul soul
Zarzo is the rooftop for people who want the music to mean something. Six floors up on the Michelin-Guide-listed Hotel El Zarzo, it trades the usual DJ-dance formula for a curated live program - son cubano, blues, jazz, soul, R&B and rap moving from old school to new across the week.
The room is intimate and upscale: craft cocktails, generous pours of wine and a short menu of food built to keep you in your seat. It reads as a grown-up night out rather than a party rooftop, which is exactly its appeal in a neighborhood full of the latter.
The Michelin Guide hotel below sets the tone - considered, well-run, a cut above the average rooftop bar - and the live sets give the place a genuine identity rather than a generic playlist.
