The Cactus Lounge
218 E Mills Ave, El Paso, TX
Crema's Take
“This El Paso institution is a genuine dance hall where live Tejano and classic hits keep the energy electric every night, with genuinely warm staff like bartender Jasmin who make you feel like a regular from your first visit. The spacious, well-maintained venue strikes that rare balance of being both a serious music venue and a welcoming gathering spot, where you can expect consistently excellent live bands and an authentic local crowd that's been coming back for months and years. It's the kind of place where the party atmosphere feels earned rather than forced, rooted in real community and real musicianship.”

Great place to hang out. Plenty of room for dancing. The bands play everything. Love the atmosphere.
Good service, especially from Jasmin the bartender.
Very nice place . Band is very good. It's a must go if you want to dance to amazing Tejano music . El Paso needs clubs like this. Loved it.🩷
If you enjoy Dancing to Great Tejano Music and Oldies Music, the Cactus Owl is the place for you. I have been coming here for about four months, and this place never disappoints. The party atmosphere is excellent, and the bar serves great drinks and popular beer brands. I've had the opportunity to hear SAS and other Tejano and 80's music bands here. The crowd here is really nice-- people just interested in having a great time. If you've struggled to find a nice place to dance, party, and have a great time, you need to try this place out! You won't regret it! In case you get hungry, there is Food Truck that can serve you tacos, burgers, and many other tasty choices.
Excellent place and very good service from all the staff from the moment you arrive they treat you very well, the facilities are very clean, the atmosphere is very pleasant and live music... the musician made us have a very pleasant time, I will definitely return to this place.
