It is situated on the Vilcanota River. Pisac is most known for its Incan ruins and large market every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday, an event which attracts heavy tourist traffic from nearby Cusco.
Things to do in Pisac
We happened into this place--it has a new owner and it was amazing. He was super hospitable in a really professional way--explained the broad menu to us and seated us at a nice table. We order chicken and lomo saltado--they have an open kitchen and you could see everyone hard at work to prepare great dishes to order--lomo saltado was very delicious as was the chicken. Loved the different kind of potatoes, the sauce and the rice. We also had a nice cool jug of limeade and finished off the meal with some coca tea.The owner chatted with us about our meal and offered valuable advice on seeing the ruins around Pizaq. He clearly understands how to run a restaurant and with the great food he will do well. His family was there as well--the place is obviously a labor of love.The meal was great, the service top notch and the entire experience was really nice. They serve pizzas in the evening and we are looking forward to going back for Pisco and Pizza in Pisac (couldn't help myself).

We stopped by for a drink early evening and enjoyed the laid back atmosphere and vibes. The owner was friendly and served us quickly with a tea and juice. We didn't eat here but the food that came out of the kitchen looked nice and the portions big. Would recommend.

This is a different place in Pisac where people can have a great coffee with a delicious dessert while work with their computer or have a nice time with friends.
What a lovely surprise to find this cosy café with sweet and savoury delicacies downtown Pisaq.Thumbs up for the environmental commitment, no plastic at all is used there!Whether to eat there or to take away, you'll simply love the fine baking of the girls there!
In urubamba you can find one of the best bakeries, with sourdough, organic flours, organic ingredients of the best quality, the attention is super nice. And the breads and products such as cinnamons rolls, croissants, sweet breads, focaccia. Incredible, I could not but try everything.

Deploying over 40 spices, herbs and marinades 5pices restaurant focuses on international dishes, seafood, fruit juices and exotic breads and cakes. Using locally-sourced fruits and vegetables it has dishes from Singapore, Korea and Vietnam as well as Peru
Spices is great! The menu is really well put together. With an array of health tonics and juices. Plus a wide range of dishes to suit every taste and dietary requirement. The raw cakes are amazing (GF raw and vegan). Try them all if you can!The owner Keith has created a really great vibe, loads of cool books to read, lots of astrology images to look at. Heâs also one of the most interesting people Iâve met. Grab the opportunity to speak to him if heâs around.Really great place for dinner, lunch or just lounging and very welcoming.

Beautiful Restaurant located in the Sacred Valley of Pisac. Garden view to the most beautiful Botanical Garden of Pisac. Our food is mostly Peruvian Traditional dishes with a twist. Also we make Pizzas, Pastas and Deserts.
We came here with a large group one night. They were able to accommodate us after we made reservations.The food was pretty good. We ordered cheese tequenos and ceviche as appetizers. For dinner our group ordered a variety of things- trout, pizza, salad, etc. Everything was pretty good.The place was definitely cozy and noisy, so not so good for conversation if you're at a larger table. Would be cute for a date night!The service was friendly. I do not believe they take credit cards- we had to pay cash (though maybe the system was just down that night).

Vegetarian tea shop with many vegan options. Huge selection of drinks, elixirs, pastries and coffees. Daily menu, salads and toasts.
I went because of their amazing reviews and ordered their breakfast sandwich with smoked trout and a side salad. The sandwich was tasty for sure, but the side salad was LAME and looked like someone just grabbed a TINY handful of greens and tossed it on the plate, wish Iâd taken a photo of it it was so sad looking. Cost 20 soles with tip. Iâve yet to find anything here that beats the omelette lady next to the juice ladies in the market, her omelettes are the BEST Iâve ever had, packed full of veggies (seriously!) and topped with cheese and avocado, cost 3 soles. And her fresh mint tea is the bomb too, 2 soles. 5 soles total cost and I get to support a local business woman, win-win! Apparently her banana pancakes are crazy good too as Iâve heard, but Iâm addicted to her omelettes because of the insane amount of veggies she packs into them. If you are into veggies, go find her!!Hi Safari809526, thank you for your review! This is a great opportunity for us to let everyone know the reason why our costs are a little higher than the food market. Our salad and vegetables are mostly organic (we source organic where ever we can, supporting local farms in the valley), our eggs are free-range organic, our cheese is organic sourced from Urubamba, and we wash ALL our vegetables and salad greens in a Sawyer water filter with iodine, so customers know that they can eat safely and as ethically as possible. This is different to the market where they don't filter their water and they don't use free-range eggs or organic foods. The pancakes we make are a little different too because they are 100% gluten-free and vegan. But yes we love the omlettes at the market too (we bring our own free-range eggs for her to use), we agree they are excellent!!Thank you for the feedback on the salad size, we'll work on making it bigger. Enjoy your time in Peru :)

As part of a tour we stopped for lunch at this very out of the way spot in Pisac. Amazing Quinoa Soup and fantastic fresh grilled trout - the children were playing in the yard, the dog was wandering around - all in a day in the life in Peru

We were strolling about Pisac after the ruins and came across this lovely spot for an early dinner. Excellent food, yummy warm quinoa salad with fresh grilled veggies. Also the alpaca sausage with polenta was great! A trendy eclectic collection of furniture and local art on the walls. A glass wall that reveals the beautiful botanical garden next door. Great setting, great food.
