Taco stands, long beach lunches and the late crowd. Our picks first, then everything we've mapped. The heart of town: the plaza, taco stands, bars and the main beach a block away. Lively, and loud on weekend nights.
Breakfast & coffee · Centro
A small café half a block from the plaza on Calle Marlín, open from 8am for smoothie bowls, sourdough toast, bagels and cold brew, with plenty for vegans. Free wifi and seats inside and out make it an easy morning stop.
Lunch & dinner · Centro
Stylish upstairs lounge for bao buns, gyoza and cocktails. Music can be too loud for conversation.
Lunch & dinner · Centro
Big, popular wood-fired pizza house with a rooftop, plus pasta and steak. Tiramisu is a favorite; some crusts come out underdone.
Bars & nights · Centro (Plaza)
The pub on the plaza, with tables outside and a second floor looking over the square: four big screens showing whatever game is on, Angus burgers and wings from MX$240, poutine for the Canadians, and a long tequila and mezcal list. Kitchen until 11pm.
Seafood · Centro
Long-running spot that will cook the fish you catch, with a strong tequila list and sopa de mariscos.
Lunch & dinner · Centro (Plaza)
Special-occasion spot overlooking the plaza with tableside salsa, fire-ritual fajitas and yellowfin tuna.
Sweet stuff · Centro
Gelato, crepes and bubble waffles at low prices. Paying in pesos avoids a poor card exchange rate.
Seafood · Main Beach
Recently renovated beachside grill for octopus, ceviche, fish tacos and mango margaritas. Can be slow when busy.
Ceviche, aguachile and the catch off the pangas. Read our guide
