At a glance
Hacienda Laborcilla is a restored 18th-century hacienda in Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico, where colonial architecture, artful interiors and dining come together in a historic setting. The property began as a place connected with grain storage and agricultural work and is now recognized as historical and cultural heritage by Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History.
The restaurant serves international cuisine across breakfast, lunch and dinner, with separate offerings for desserts, beverages and wine. The menu brings together different culinary traditions rather than focusing on one regional style, making the venue suitable for varied dining occasions. The setting is an important part of the experience, with detailed interiors, plants, sculptures and restored hacienda features throughout the property.
The central patio includes a fountain and pool feature, while the venue also has several enclosed and semi-open spaces. The interior restaurant, Salón Trojes, Salón Azul, Salón Hindú and the terrace provide different atmospheres for meals, private gatherings and business occasions. These spaces are used for social celebrations and corporate events, with arrangements that can suit intimate groups as well as larger functions.
The Carter Bar adds a separate evening option. Its design draws on Egyptian culture and its name refers to archaeologist Howard Carter. The bar combines wine and cocktails with shared plates, offering a broad wine selection and cocktails prepared by mixologists. Music played from vinyl records forms part of the bar’s identity, with styles including lounge, disco, funky and afro house.
Hacienda Laborcilla suits diners looking for an architectural setting alongside an international menu, as well as groups arranging celebrations, meetings or other events. The atmosphere leans toward polished and decorative rather than casual, while the range of rooms allows different levels of privacy and formality. The address is Prol. Corregidora Nte. 911 bis, Quinta la Laborcilla, 76168 Santiago de Querétaro, Querétaro.
