La Parilla de Pepe
Pepe runs a one-man show on the grill at this locals’ haunt for cheap steaks. The aged exterior is intriguing, the interior far more respectful. They are a bit skimpy on the fries, but the steaks are cooked to perfection. Reservations are recommended, especially at weekends.

BouleBar
One of Osorno’s few hip spots, though not quite as cool as its sister bar in Puerto Montt. Still, pickings are slim, so drinks here are obligatory, if for no other reason then to toast to its former history as the town’s oldest surviving Germanic structure. Probst!

Clube de Artesanos
A union house that’s been converted into the most alluring place to put away a pint or pastel del choclo. The bar, brimming with personality, is also one of few places that serve local homebrew Märzen – don’t miss it.

Salón de Té Rhenania
Just upstairs from a bakery that wafts out enticing smells, this tea room is bright and breezy and serves up a variety of empanadas, most fried, but all absolutely enormous. Sandwiches are equally good and large.

Pizzería Donnatelo
This is the secret, and best, pizza place in town. It's hard to find, on a side alley off Cochrane, but is worth the trip.
