More About Ay Wey Bar & Grill
Ay Wey Bar & Grill opened in El Poblado in early February 2018 and has become popular. The official grand opening was on Friday, February 2, 2018, which means it opened just in time for the 2018 Super Bowl.
An expat I know that I happened to run into in Parque Lleras told me about this sports bar that had opened. So, I went to check it out on the grand opening day and I was impressed. They had attractive women outside for the grand opening as well as many attractive waitresses. So, the place was busy. I heard the owner hired some models for the grand opening.
Since being there for the grand opening, I have been back to this sports bar several times to watch sports with friends. This sports bar has several TVs, several tables and also has seats at the bar.
In addition, they have sports with sound in English that can be difficult to find at some other sports bars in Medellín. This sports bar uses GearsTV, with over 400 channels and premium sports with NFL, NHL, MLB and many more sports available.

We go there frequently to watch NFL and NBA games and they have some friendly staff and I like the burritos there.
Nice post. I like the Ay Wey sports bar. They have cold beers for a reasonable price for El Poblado and the sports on the TVs have sound in English. Also the Tex-Mex food is pretty good, I like the tacos and burritos there.
