Vinos y Piedra
A true wine bar, complete with spittoons at each table and a broad selection of both domestic and imported vinos, this hangout for Tlaxcala’s elite serves tapas-style small plates, with an emphasis on highfalutin’ ingredients (think Iberian ham, filet mignon, grapes rolled in blue cheese and pistachios). At the back of the restaurant, check out the see-through floor and basement wine cellar.

Fonda del Convento
This unassuming home-style restaurant has been a local favorite for four decades. The menu focuses on traditional Tlaxcalteca cuisine, including guisanos (maguey worms), escamoles (ant larvae), mole poblano, rabbit in pulque and a family-recipe pipián (green pumpkin seed sauce).

Café Avenida
The homey wooden interior of this small café feels dollhouse-like – almost too cute against the backdrop of Tlaxcala’s increasingly hip college-town vibe. But Avenida is popular with locals for its reasonably priced three-course lunch (M$50 to M$70) and location on the Plaza de la Constitución.

Restaurante del Bazar
A new addition to Tlaxcala’s eating scene, this upmarket restaurant offers dining in a gorgeous setting with stylish decor and excellent service. The menu is a large and frequently changing roll-call of Mexican favorites with a modern twist.

Restaurante Jardín Plaza
The best of the mediocre bar-restaurants competing for attention on the eastern side of the zócalo. It specializes in regional cookery such as anise-flavored tamales. There's also an espresso machine.

Tirol
Sleek and modern, with stark white decor and attentive service, this excellent, upscale restaurant is popular for its good-value, four-course set menu (M$65 to M$90) at lunch and a swanky ambience after dark.

Delitzia
With outdoor tables overlooking the zócalo, Delitzia dispenses tasty but casual fare – baguettes, crepes and salads – and is an appealing place to hunker down with a post-sightseeing cocktail.
