Riviera Nayarit, Mexico – The small town of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle on the North Shore has many charming features. Known for its fishermen, world-class Marina, Sunday Market, and first rate restaurants and entertainment, you’ll find what you’re looking for in this beautiful village.
Over 20 years ago, Philo Hayward created a restaurant/bar that brought the ex-pat community together in La Cruz. For years, Alfredo Jimenez and his wife, Marichuy Ortega Gonzalez, were part of the successful team that ran Philo’s Restaurant. Since Philo’s passing, they have created their own place, The Tree House Bar and Grill, with an outdoor garden setting along with fabulous food, libations and quality entertainment.
Located in the heart of the village at Coral 68, La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, The Tree House Bar and Grill is open daily from 1 pm to 11 pm. You can find information about it along with entertainment updates on its Facebook page. You can also email The Tree House at lacruzdinnershows(at)gmail.com, or call 322-182-4026.
