  2. Bibliocafé

    With two adjacent locations, this has something for everyone; one side is dark and cozy, the other a little smarter. There's good service, a menu of pasta and Mexican-Bolivian food, and drinks until late in a cheerful and unpretentious atmosphere. There's regular live music.

  3. Churrasquería Cumaná

    A Sucre secret, this carnivore's delight is in the Barrio Petrolero, a cab-ride from the center. The full portions of exquisitely-grilled meat can comfortably feed two; the courtyard is also a pleasant place to drink wine or cocktails. There's great service too.

  4. El Germen

    This simply decorated, service-with-a-smile spot is a favorite for its tasty vegetarian dishes; they also do decent goulash and roast meat, as well as cracking curries and tempting cakes. There's a book exchange; you might need it, as you can often finish a novel (reading one, not writing one - quite) waiting for your meal.

  5. El Huerto

    Set in a lovely secluded garden, this is a favorite spot for Sucre's people in the know. It's got the atmosphere of a classy lawn party, with sunshades and grass underfoot; there's great service and stylishly-presented traditional plates that don't come much better anywhere in the country. Sunday lunch is a special treat too.

  9. La Taverne

    With a quiet sophisticated atmosphere, the restaurant of the Alliance Française is a delight to visit. The short, select menu has a French touch - tongue with chili and chocolate will appeal to adventurous palates - and there are excellent daily specials - a teriyaki beef went down well at time of research. There's live music every Friday night; films are also screened here several times a week.

  10. Locot's

    A relaxed, attractive bar-restaurant in an interesting old building, this has original art on the walls and offers a wide choice of Bolivian, Mexican, and international food, including vegetarian choice, and a gringo-friendly vibe. Look out for the cocktails named after Bolivian presidents, and regular live music.

  12. Restaurant La Plaza

    The mostly meat-based meals are filling and the outdoor balconies are a great place for a beer on a lethargic Sunday afternoon.
