1. Briana's Food Place
$ | |If you’re hankering for a steaming bowl of cow-foot soup or just a good old plate of succulent stew chicken, join San Pedranos on their lunch break at Briana's. Crunchy eats like salbutes and garnachas won’t disappoint, but for faithful homestyle Belizean cuisine, try whatever is on special that day: think pigtail or curry chicken with coconut rice and beans, plantains, and a scoop of slaw.

2. Annie's Pastries
$ | |Snug as a pink box of pastries, Annie's is open only in the late afternoon and evening and offers empanadas, sandwiches, and miniloaves of banana bread at local prices. If you're feeling spontaneous, select from the unlabeled display in the window and see what you bite into.
Laguna Dr., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize629--7242Known For

- Coconut tarts
- Afternoon pick-me-ups

3. Belize Chocolate Company
$ | |Grab a milk shake, a cacao iced tea, or a bar of coconut milk chocolate at this outpost of the fabulous chocolatier based in San Pedro. Try the "island crunch" sponge taffy––an airy yet dense delight.
Av. Hicaco, Caye Caulker, Belize District, Belize226--0015Known For

- Banana caramel
- Attracting repeat customers

4. Black Orchid
$$$ | |Black Orchid is named for the delicate national flower of Belize, but the gorgeous food here ranges from Belizean to global fusion. Vibrant dishes include ginger pork egg rolls and teriyaki chicken cooked over a lava rock broiler. This island-elegant dining room has thatch accents, a fountain tiered like a Maya temple, and starched tablecloths. Swing by for a popular happy hour starting at 3 pm, but make a reservation if you plan to stay for dinner.
S. Coconut Dr., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize206--2441Known For
- A great happy hour (3–5:30 pm)
- Crusted orange rum grouper
- A romantic but not stuffy scene
Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Closed Sun. and Mon. No lunch -
5. Caramba!
$$$ | |The outdoor ice coolers of fresh lobster, mussels, and fish might lure you into Caramba; once inside, you'll quickly sense the frenetic energy of this noisy and often packed joint. No sea views, and there's nothing fancy on the broad menu here—just basics like grilled snapper, fried shrimp, pork chops, and Mexican fajitas, all in American portions—but everything is well prepared, prices are moderate, and the service is snappy and enthusiastic. Belizean owner Rene Reyes worked his way up from fruit-seller to successful restaurateur.
20 Pescador Dr., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize226--4321Known For
- Incredibly fresh seafood
- Habanero margaritas
- A fun dinner

6. Estel's Dine by the Sea
$$ | |Build your ideal breakfast from a mix-and-match chalkboard menu at San Pedro's most classic breakfast spot, famous for its fry jacks served with honey and mango jam. A favorite among locals and visitors, Estel's gets well-earned hype for its cheap-ish eats and morning cocktail specials. Estel's even has grits! The porthole windows, decorative buoys, and sandy floors give the joint a nautical atmosphere––not the mention the sea in its front yard. Best seats are on the porch or on wooden benches with mini-thatch roofs, where you can watch pelicans and passersby. Later in the day you'll find tacos, down-home cooking, and great seafood dishes here.
Buccaneer St., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize226--2019Known For
- Maya eggs
- Beloved by Belizeans and tourists alike
- Casual sandy-floor vibes

Rate Includes: Closed Sun. -
7. Marbucks Coffee House
$ | |You'll recognize the circular logo from the monolithic coffee chain it references, but vibrant-tiled Marbucks is far better. Part of the intimate Daydreamin' B&B, Marbucks is a charming breakfast joint with pleasant outdoor stools and tables. We recommend the drip coffee and the frittata, served in a cast iron skillet. If you're hankering for a back-home bagel, the egg sandwich is delicious. Marbucks hosts the groovy and hugely popular Wine Down Thursdays gathering from 4:30 to 7:30, with live music and complimentary appetizers.
1½ miles (2.4 km) north of bridge, Ambergris Caye, Corozal, Belize226--4449Known For
- Guatemalan coffee
- A basic breakfast on your way to town
- Wine and live music on Thursday
Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: No dinner -
8. Mesa Bistro
$$ | |The air-conditioned setting feels more United States than Caribbean, but Mesa plates up delicious change-of-pace dishes like churro-spice pancakes or, for lunch, sweet potato tacos. Vegetarians will appreciate the savory bean cake Benedict, among other options. Local drip coffee does nicely in the morning.
Tarpon St., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize636--8464Known For
- Coconut French toast
- Vegetarian and vegan options
- Hip diner vibes

Rate Includes: No dinner -
9. Reina's
$$ | |At any given time, two or three generations of the owner's family staff this outdoor eatery, which serves some of the best pineapple shrimp and coconut curry on Caye Caulker. You’ll sit under fluorescent lights with feet in the sand, while your dinner sizzles behind you in a tiny kitchenette or on a barbecue grill. Reina’s has a full bar but no straws (a big bonus for marine life). During the day, the family sells tasty meat pies next door.
Av. Langosta, Caye Caulker, Belize District, Belize622--4014Known For
- Jerk chicken and strong campechanas
- Wholesome family dining
- Local flavor at good prices
-
10. Waruguma
$$ | |This open-air favorite is your spot for handmade pupusas (pockets of masa filled with meat or veggies and cooked on a griddle). The huge pupusas will only run you about BZ$3–BZ$6 each, and range from spinach to pork to the idiosyncratic "crazy" flavor. An array of (more expensive) seafood and meat dishes is also on offer. For tropical decadence try the coconut cream burritos filled with seafood or chicken while you enjoy the town's bustle just feet away. Waruguma is a great, low-key family dinner spot.
Angel Coral St., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize633--0931Known For
- Vegetarian and meaty pupusas
- Lobster burritos
- People-watching in the heart of San Pedro

11. Wild Mango's
$$$ | |Noted local chef Amy Knox has made Wild Mango's one of the most interesting dining choices in town. She calls her cooking New Wave Latin—Caribbean food infused with spicy flavors from Cuba, Argentina, and Mexico. The updated menu spotlights Belizean crops and foodways: you'll find small plates like a citrus cocoa nib salad and plantain tostones with shrimp sofrito. Snazzy large plates include cashew grouper with rich green chile beurre blanc. (Knox does not use conch or lobster, as she believes them to be unsustainable.) Wild Mango's features a handful of impressive vegetarian options. Seating is beach-casual, with high tables on a covered, open-air veranda.
42 Barrier Reef Dr., San Pedro Town, Belize District, Belize226--2859Known For
- Creative, genre-busting dishes
- Open-air dining
- An expanding vegetarian menu
