REVIEW · CABO SAN LUCAS BOOZY TOURS
All you can drink (3 hrs) – El Squid Roe Los Cabos
Three hours, two floors, one Cabo night. El Squid Roe gives you express entry into one of Cabo San Lucas’s best-known party spots, with unlimited rum, tequila, vodka, gin, and beer included for about three hours. I like the simple setup: you get past the line and do not need to keep opening your wallet for every standard drink.
I also like the central location on Boulevard Lázaro Cárdenas, which makes this easy to reach as part of a night out in town. The main drawback is that the experience depends heavily on the night. Wednesday can feel quieter, while Friday and Saturday are more likely to deliver the loud, crowded party atmosphere many people expect.
Quick facts about the El Squid Roe night out

- Unlimited standard drinks: Rum, vodka, tequila, gin, and beer are included for roughly three hours.
- Express entry: Your admission and cover are included, with a host available to help.
- Two floors of music: The club offers several areas for listening, drinking, and dancing.
- Central Cabo location: Meet at El Squid Roe, Boulevard Lázaro Cárdenas 1112, in downtown Cabo San Lucas.
- Premium drinks cost extra: Higher-end liquor and specialty drinks are not part of the package.
- Best timing matters: A midweek visit may be calmer, while Friday or Saturday is the safer choice for a full party mood.
What your three hours at El Squid Roe look like

The entire experience takes place at El Squid Roe. There is no sightseeing route, bus transfer, or series of stops. You arrive at the club, redeem your ticket, pass through the entrance with express access, and settle into the music and bar scene.
That simplicity is useful. If your goal is to dance and drink in Cabo, you do not spend part of the evening waiting for a shuttle or moving between venues. You go straight to the action. The tradeoff is that the experience offers less variety than a full club crawl.
Your admission includes the cover charge and free access to the venue. A VIP host is also listed as part of the package, which can help with entry and basic direction inside the club. Still, you should not assume that VIP means a private table or a guaranteed premium seating area. One party arrived expecting a VIP table and was instead placed in an eating booth after some confusion.
That detail matters. If a table is important to your night, confirm exactly what the package includes before paying. The advertised benefits clearly include access and drinks, but seating arrangements may not match every person’s idea of VIP treatment.

Two floors, loud music, and a real club atmosphere

El Squid Roe is built for a social night, not a quiet drink. You can expect loud music, flashing lights, and a busy party setting. The two floors give you room to move around, although the feel of the music and crowd may change during the evening.
I like the two-level layout because it gives a group some flexibility. You can move away from one area without leaving the venue, find friends more easily, or take a break from the main dance floor. If you prefer calm conversation, though, this is not the right setting. One experience found the music so loud and the flashing lights so constant that the atmosphere became overwhelming.
The music may also vary by night. A Wednesday visit did not provide the same dance-focused energy expected from a weekend party. That does not make the experience poor, but it does show why your choice of date matters. If dancing is the main reason you are going, Friday or Saturday is the stronger bet based on the available feedback.
The club is especially suited to groups of friends. A birthday party of 11 people managed to enjoy the night even after the tour representative failed to arrive, because the club manager allowed the group in and honored the paid benefits. That is a good sign for the venue’s willingness to solve problems, though you should not plan on a missing guide being part of the service.
What the all-you-can-drink package really includes
The package covers standard pours of rum, vodka, tequila, gin, and beer. For many people, this is the main reason to book. You pay once, then order included drinks during the three-hour period instead of buying each one separately.
The value depends on how much you drink and how long you stay. If you plan to have only one or two drinks, paying for an unlimited package may not save money. If you are spending the full three hours with friends and ordering several standard drinks, the package becomes easier to justify.
You should keep the word standard in mind. Premium drinks cost extra, so ask before ordering anything that sounds higher-end or specialty. The package does not mean every bottle behind the bar is free. That is a common source of surprise in all-you-can-drink nightlife offers.
The quality of the included liquor also drew mixed reactions. Some people had a great time and felt the drinks were good, while another experience found the liquor quality disappointing. I would treat the package as a way to keep the drinks flowing, not as a tasting experience built around top-shelf brands.
Jell-O shots may also be available, but they are not included in the package. One party paid $5 per shot without realizing the extra charge ahead of time. Ask about the price before accepting add-ons, especially if you are trying to keep the total under control.
Drink responsibly. Unlimited alcohol can make three hours pass quickly, and loud music and flashing lights can make it harder to notice how much you have had. Eat before or during the evening, keep track of your group, and make a safe plan for getting back to your accommodation.
The value of express entry in Cabo San Lucas
The express access may be the most practical part of the booking. Cabo’s nightlife can bring lines at popular clubs, and avoiding a long wait is worth something, especially if you have limited time in town.
Your meeting point is El Squid Roe, Cabo Bar & Restaurant, at Boulevard Lázaro Cárdenas 1112, Centro, Ildefonso Green, Cabo San Lucas, B.C.S. The location is near public transportation, so you do not need to arrange the package’s transportation to reach the club. Transportation is not included, and any ride to or from the venue costs extra.
This arrangement works best if you already know your way around central Cabo or are staying nearby. If you are coming from farther away, add the cost and time of transportation when comparing the package with buying drinks directly at the club.
The booking confirmation is provided at the time of booking. You will redeem your ticket at the venue, so keep your confirmation available when you arrive. A moderate level of physical fitness is recommended, which is reasonable for a night involving standing, walking through a club, and dancing.

Choosing the right night for the experience

The date can shape your entire evening. A Wednesday may offer a more relaxed club setting, but it may not deliver the packed dance-floor feeling you have in mind. One midweek visit included free-flowing drinks and a fun atmosphere, yet the music was not especially suited to dancing.
Friday and Saturday are the better choices if you want the biggest party mood. That does not guarantee your favorite music or a perfect crowd, but the available experience suggests the weekend is more likely to match the image of Cabo nightlife many people have before arriving.
The package lasts about three hours. That is enough time to settle in, order drinks, spend time on both floors, and dance without committing your entire night to one place. It also leaves room to continue elsewhere afterward, though you will need to arrange and pay for any additional venue entry or transportation.
If you are celebrating a birthday, bachelor or bachelorette trip, or friends’ getaway, the format is easy to understand. Everyone meets at one place, pays for one package, and has a shared plan. Large groups can still face seating or service complications, so agree on a meeting point inside the club in case people spread across the two floors.
What I like most about El Squid Roe
The strongest feature is convenience. Admission, express entry, and standard drinks come together in one booking. You do not have to negotiate entry at the door or stop after every drink to calculate the next purchase.
I also like the social energy when the night is working. Positive experiences describe friendly people, enjoyable music, and an easy place to spend time with friends. The venue is aimed at having fun rather than delivering a formal club experience, and that suits a group that wants to laugh, dance, and stay out late.
The birthday group’s experience also shows that the club may be willing to help when something goes wrong. Their tour representative did not arrive, but the manager let the group in and provided the benefits they had paid for. That does not replace reliable hosting, but it prevented a bad start from ruining the night.
Where the experience can disappoint
The biggest risk is a mismatch between the package description and what you expect to receive. If you interpret VIP host or VIP access as a private table, ask for clarification before booking. The available information supports express entry and hosted assistance, but it does not promise a dedicated VIP table.
The second issue is drink quality. Standard unlimited alcohol is attractive for the price, but it may not satisfy someone looking for premium liquor. Premium drinks are extra, and add-on shots can increase the bill quickly.
The third issue is atmosphere. The club can be loud, bright, and intense. That is part of the appeal for some people, but it can be tiring if you want conversation or a slower evening. The music may also be better for listening than dancing on certain nights.
Finally, the package may feel expensive for light drinkers. One group of three spent close to $300 and felt the cost was hard to justify for a midweek visit. The same price may feel more reasonable if you stay the full three hours, drink several included beverages, and get the lively weekend atmosphere you wanted.
Who should book this Cabo nightlife experience?

I would recommend it to adults traveling with friends who want a straightforward night of clubbing. It works particularly well for people who value getting past the line and prefer paying once for a set period of standard drinks.
It is also a reasonable choice for a birthday group or a first night in Cabo when you want an easy meeting place. The two-floor setup gives you some freedom, and the central location makes it practical to continue elsewhere afterward.
I would be more cautious if you care about premium liquor, quiet conversation, guaranteed seating, or a specific style of music. You may also prefer buying drinks individually if you expect to stay briefly or drink very little.
Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the experience begins. Cancellations made within 24 hours are not refunded, and changes inside that period are not accepted. The experience also depends on good weather, with a different date or full refund offered if poor weather causes cancellation.
Should you book El Squid Roe?
Book it if you want easy entry, unlimited standard drinks, and a social club setting in central Cabo. Choose Friday or Saturday if dancing and a stronger party atmosphere are important to you, and treat the included liquor as basic rather than premium.
Skip it if a guaranteed VIP table, high-end drinks, or relaxed conversation matters more than convenience. Before you go, confirm seating expectations, ask about the cost of extras such as Jell-O shots, and budget separately for transportation. With those limits understood, this can be a fun and practical Cabo night out, especially with a good-sized group.
