One last cold Corona with runway views before boarding
Corona Beach Bar sits airside in Terminal A at PVR, right by several international departure gates, and it leans hard into “vacation isn’t over yet.” You’re looking at standard Mexican airport pricing: around 90–130 MXN for a bottled beer and more if you go for mixed drinks. Seating faces large windows, so you can watch 737s and A320s taxi while you finish that final round.
Hours typically run from early morning first departures (around 7:00) through the last evening flights after 20:00, but it’s busiest in the late afternoon wave of Canada and US departures. Service is table-style at a bar counter plus a ring of high-top tables, so you’re not far from your gate even when it’s full. Figure 15–20 minutes for a drink and a snack if your flight is already boarding from nearby gates in Terminal A.
The move here is in the name: order a Corona or Pacifico and keep food expectations basic. Think chips and salsa, maybe nachos or simple bar bites, not a full sit-down meal. A beer and a snack for one person usually lands in the 200–300 MXN range with tip. It’s more about atmosphere and runway views than culinary fireworks.
There aren’t major recurring complaints online, but this is an airport bar in a sun destination, so expect higher prices than the Malecón and slower service when three or four full 180-seat flights hit the terminal at once. If you’re tight on time (under 30 minutes to departure), stick to bottled beer; cocktails and food can easily double your wait.
Tip: grab a window-adjacent table, order your beer immediately, and set a boarding alarm on your phone for 20 minutes before departure so you don’t lose track watching the runway action.
