In Vitro is not one of the particularly stylish bars in Bogotá, and often favours function over form with plenty of wooden tables, a long window bar and a dance area. In fact, it looks as though someone has cleared a space in their flat and set up shop. That said, it’s all in good fun. The bar has a film screening once a week and other nights are often themed around particular music genres, such as retro salsa or old-school Western; the crowd, mainly in their 20s and 30s, take to the music with great gusto-tables are abandoned for enthusiastic dancing, and many sing along with the words.
