Restaurants in Uyuni

  1. A

    Minuteman Revolutionary Pizza

    This convivial spot, inside the Toñito Hotel, run by Chris from Boston and his Bolivian wife Sussy, is a deserved travelers’ favorite with the best pizzas in town, tasty alternatives like salads, pastas and sandwiches and fantastic desserts. It’s also a cozy spot for a beer or candlelit glass of Tarija wine or a hearty breakfast (B$20 to B$30) with all you can drink coffee or tea. If you have old sunglasses, you can do a good deed – drop them off here and they’ll be donated to the salt workers in Colchani.

    Place of Colors

    This friendly café wins points for its charming name and keeps visitors happy with various breakfasts, sandwiches and baguettes, a great pique (hearty Bolivian favorite of chopped beef, sausages, chips and a spicy sauce) in the evening, and hot wine for that cold you caught on the salar tour. Small, simple and pleasing.

    La Loco

    This friendly French-run restaurant and pub is a barn-like space that’s lit low and furnished with comfortingly chunky wooden furniture around a log fire. There are plenty of drinks and a short but classy menu that offers croques monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwiches), crepes and llama steaks with a gourmet touch.

    Italiana

    Service can be painfully slow at this buzzing place with bamboo decor and plenty of travelers. The menu features a variety of Mexican and Italian dishes such as tacos, enchiladas, pastas, and some vegetarian options. You can wash your meal down with a beer or cocktail.

    Restaurant 16 de Julio

    Right along the main strip, this is a good place to escape the fellow gringos. Pleasant and friendly, it has a full spectrum of international and Bolivian dishes. Expect to wait a while to get served, especially at lunchtime when locals flock here.

    Wiphala Pub

    Named after the multicolored Aymará flag, this place has a welcoming feel with its wooden tables, earthy vibe and board games. It serves tasty Bolivian dishes, specializing in llama meat and quinoa, and has quinoa beer.

    Kactus

    In an upstairs location along Arce, this is a no-fuss restaurant popular with locals for its affordable food choices. The service can be spotty and the menu isn’t particularly exciting, but the food is decent.

  8. Por’t Alba

    A good place to fill up before the train ride, with a spacious interior clad in wood and a big fireplace in the middle. Food choices consist of the usual: pizzas, pastas, hamburgers and some national dishes.

    Arco Iris

    Something of an Uyuni classic for pizza and drinks, this place with wooden benches and ethnic decor is friendly and popular as a place to socialize and link up with other travelers.
