/Sounds like "tah" (as in "tar") + "GWAH" (as in "Guam") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/

Meaning

A no-frills neighborhood bar in Venezuela where drinks are cheap, the music is loud, and nobody is pretending to be fancy. A taguara is the kind of place you go when you just want to drink without ceremony or a dress code.

Examples

That spot always plays the best tropical music.

Regional synonyms
