Best Pub food near Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico
Discover Restaurants offering the best Pub food in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico. Looking for a tropical Mexican fishing village with relaxing beaches, oceanfront seafood bars and restaurants, unspoiled reefs for diving and snorkeling, and waves suitable for championship surfing? Puerto Escondido has all that plus the Laguna de Manialtepec mangrove lagoon for tours combining kayaking, boating, bird-watching, and swimming in phosphorescent waters. Regularly scheduled airline service links Mexico City and Oaxaca to Puerto Escondido Airport (PXM)Rent an umbrella at the town beach, Playa Principal, which parallels the Avenida Perez Gasga hotel and restaurant row. Stop in one of the hotels near the beach for a drink or take the family horseback riding. A small freshwater lagoon at the mouth of the river, Rio Rigadillo, marks the border with Playa Marinero, which has waves suitable for beginning surfers. The whole family will enjoy the mile-long shoreline walkway known as Andador Escénico, which leads across the rocks to El Faro lighthouse and the Sueño Posible scenic overlook. Beyond the lighthouse, Playa Principal transitions into Playa Manzanillo, a swimmable beach with clear waters extending towards Puerto Angelito. Rent a boogie board or equipment to snorkel the coral and rocks. If Playa Manzanillo gets too crowded on a holiday weekend, catch one of the water taxis linking Puerto Escondido’s seven beaches. Hire a skiff to take the family sightseeing or dolphin and sea turtle viewing. Fish for trophy sailfish or catch a dinner of yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi (dorado), grouper, roosterfish, mackerel, or snapper. Watch the experts surf the 6-15 foot swells and hollow tubes of Playa Zicatela. International competitions in August and November draw the pros to demonstrate their prowess on the Mexican Pipeline. Snorkel or surf the clear shallow waters beneath the high cliffs surrounding Playa Carrizalillo. High red cliffs, housing, and hotels surround riptide-plagued Playa Bacocho, which is good for long romantic beach walks and sunsets. For more adventure, dive Pressure Point’s tectonic plate fault lines or Punta Colarada’s volcanic overhangs, ledges, and lava rock swimthroughs. If you are lucky you will see lobsters, stingrays, moray and snowflake eels, barracudas, yellow tangs, parrotfish, and puffers.

Restaurante&bar with the best tacos, burguers, salads and more in Zicatela, also with a special big drinks to refresh you

The waitresses were incredibly rude, and ripped us off. We ordered the drink special posted out front and when we received the bill we were charged more than double (not even the regular price). We explained this and they immediately knocked 100 pesos off the price - but not down to the special rate. We then showed the girl the special we meant and she claimed that rate was for next door, we were embarrassed at our mistake but she then checked the sign and claimed it was for margaritas not mojitos - but the sign said mojitos. She was aggressive and sarcastic, I can't imagine how a tourist who didn't speak Spanish would have handled this. In the end we payed the inflated price but I don't understand what went wrong - she lied to our faces about what the board said despite us being able to read it. As we left we checked and the sign was for this bar and said mojitos. If it is a scam to rip off tourists it worked and we won't be returning.

The only great viking hall at Puerto Escondido with the most delicious and huge burgers. A place to visit with nordic hungry and thirst at Rinconada. Informal and rocker ambient with the most profesional service and the best meals quality. Come and try th

We had a nice salad with "papa's cambray" (baked potatoes with lime and garlic) and a veggie burger (fried vegetables in a bun). Both were very tasty. From 19:00 to 20:00 it is happy hour for cocktails. The Margaritas are good and decent sized. The music is 80's 90's alternative which we like. All in all a pleasant experience, and we'll definitely be back. Decent tables and chairs (a bit hard) and a fun owner.

I stayed much longer than planned... Two weeks longer. Generally, that's a good sign... Loved my room--AC and kitchen and great view!--and the cafe and pool are great. If it's expensive by local standards (but still a great value), it's worth it. Loved my stay here!

My brother and I visited Puerto Escondido to meet up for a surf trip. We are both from Australia but had both been living overseas. The location is great, right across the road from the La Punta break. I took a private room out the back, which was fantastic. The staff were very helpful and the food was great. I def recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice and chilled place to stay.

So good. You can't go wrong here, mo matter what you order (prawns are my favourite). Three tacos should fill you or two of the steak ones (they're bigger feeds). Then use the self service toppings counter to your delight. Cool place.
