As far as bars go, El Coyote Cojo in Cyberpunk 2077 is very much a dive down from normal standards, however, the food is apparently top-notch and the owner is well-liked. This joint is run by Mama Welles, who the player can meet within El Coyote Cojo's walls if they're in the area.

There are a few quests that can be picked up here for those in the need of some XP as well as some decent rewards, so visiting this Cyberpunk 2077 location may not be a bad idea.

Updated on October 21, 2021, by Reyadh Rahaman: Talking to people is always important in RPGs, even futuristic ones with crazy bugs. Thankfully, simply talking to Mama Welles and the other more important inhabitants of El Coyote Cojo won't cause players to glitch out...most of the time. In fact, players can pick up some quests, as mentioned above, which can earn players some nice loot as well as allowing gamers to get more deeply immersed in the setting and among the NPCs. A great part about this game is the dialogue and character development, so be sure to enjoy the story for the truest Cyberpunk 2077 experience.

Where To Find El Coyote Cojo In Night City

Players looking for El Coyote Cojo will need to head to the Heywood district found toward the center of the city and then proceed south to the sub-district known as The Glen. Look for a red brick wall with a large yellow sign atop a massive horned skull. The Glen is not that big of a sub-district, so players should be able to find this vibrant spot easily enough after only a few minutes of searching.

Mama Welles

Her full name is Guadalupe Alejandra Welles, and in addition to being the owner of the establishment, she is also the mother of Jackie Welles. Both she and her son have had a hard life as Mama's ex-husband, a member of the Valentinos gang named Raul, abused her and her sons repeatedly until Jackie took action and beat his hateful father into a pulp before demanding he leaves and never returns to Night City, which Raul agreed to while nursing his wounds.

However, the tragedies don't end there as Mama Welles lost all of her children except Jackie to various causes, which made her grow exceptionally protective of her remaining son.
