South American restaurants in Cochabamba

  1. A

    Páprika

    One of the ‘in’ spots, this is a block removed from the roar of Av Ballivián, and is a quiet leafy place popular for its food – both Bolivian and international, including tasty baked potatoes and fondues. After dark it becomes a trendy spot for a late drink and is also a good place to meet up with young Bolivians.

  2. B

    Tunari

    With the distinction of being the oldest restaurant in the city, this local favorite specializes in the sort of things you either love or hate: grilled kidneys (a patent local hangover cure), tripe and tasty chorizo. But if innards aren’t your thing, there are other typical Cochabamba plates.

  3. C

    Casa de Campo

    A Cochabamba classic, this loud and cheerful partly open-air restaurant is a traditional spot to meet, eat, and play cacho (dice). There’s a big range of Bolivian dishes and grilled meats; the food is fine (and piled high on the plates), but the lively, unpretentious atmosphere is better.

  4. D

    Casablanca

    Both restaurant and bar, this spot is popular with both locals and visitors and always has a busy buzz. As one might expect, there are dodgy Bogart murals on the walls. The place also offers a large range of international dishes, and drinks until late. Service is very poor.

    Savarín

    This popular, well-established barn on Ballivián has a wide streetside terrace where people congregate at lunchime for filling almuerzos (set lunches) and, in the evening, for a beer or three.

  6. F

    Restaurant Marvi

    This decent family-run place offers one of the best typical almuerzos (set lunches) around. At dinnertime, solid plates of comida criolla (criollo food) are served.

  7. G

    Sucremanta

    A chain of restaurantes típicos where you can sample dependable local dishes, including mondongo (pork ribs) and menudito (pork, chicken and beef stew).
