Montezuma has had a tough time coming to terms with its nightlife. For years, local businesses banded together to force most of the loud, late-night activity out of town. This has eased somewhat, and there's currently quite an active nightlife in Montezuma proper. The local action seems to base itself either at Chico's Bar or at the bar at the Hotel Montezuma. Both are located on the main strip in town facing the water. If your evening tastes are mellower, El Sano Banano Village Cafe doubles as the local movie house, with nightly late-run features projected on a large screen.
