Cocina Económica Mary
This busy family joint smells delicious. The cafeteria-style open kitchen serves filling meals with your choice of main (eg, chicken mole, pulled pork with squash or chiles rellenos – stuffed chilies with cheese or meat), along with soup, rice, beans and freshly made tortillas.

Mole Orapondiro
This sunny café specializes in one thing: a rich, thick and chocolatey mole sauce. Local ladies smuggle home bottles of it, so they can pass it off as their own. You can have it ladled over chicken, rice and beans and on tortas. Get here early because chicken always sells out.

Café La Pérgola
Ambience is old-school at this arched, cavernous café that serves everything from enchiladas to sandwiches to salads to cappuccinos. The clientele, mostly old men with backstory etched into their bones, is good fodder for sketch artists and photographers and it has a nice breakfast menu.

La Terraza de la Trucha
Irresistibly nestled at the north entrance of the national park, you’ll find a cozy table with shady cascade views and order the trout, of course. Get it grilled, crusted in macadamias or a la tampiqueña (with guacamole and beans). It comes with fresh chips and a searing salsa.

Mercado de Antojitos
The best place for down-home local cooking is the buzzing food court at the center of this labyrinthine market. The carnitas are renowned across Michoacán, and the tacos, pozole and cocadas (haystacks of caramelized coconut) ain’t half bad either.

La Casa
An arty young crowd nibbles crepes, wood oven–fired pizzas and baguette sandwiches at this cozy courtyard café. The garden bar is a great place to sit with a cappuccino or a cerveza and groove to the sounds of Mexican indie rock in the background.

Taquería Carlitos
Locals line up around the block for Carlitos’ crunchy, savory rolled tacos filled with beef, potatoes, beans and cheese. An order includes six tacos served in a plastic bag and splashed with red or green salsa. Beef sells out early.

Cocina Vegetariana
Vegans, it’s your lucky day. This hole-in-the-wall serves veggie burgers, meat-free pasta and other nonanimal delicacies. Decor is less than inviting, but where else in town are you going to get soy chorizo?

Boca Del Río
Boca Del Río Ceviche tostadas and fresh shrimp and octopus cocktails are the exclusive domain of this café tucked just behind Parroquia San Francisco. It's been here since 1974.

Hinde Kumanchikua
After a drunken evening at Bar Rio you'll be eternally grateful for Uruapan's best late night taqueria. Munch beef chorizo or tacos al pastor, served with three fiery salsas.
