In-Depth Information
( 7721-8078; 4a Av 8-18; mains Q36-45; 9am-10pm Mon-Sat; )
Right up from the Pana dock,
Dino's place sports a terrific deck for lake-view dining. The menu spans the globe from
tempeh fajitas to Chinese tacos to Tecpán sausage. Offering movies, a lending library and
a popular bar, it's San Pedro's closest thing to a cultural center.
Hummus-Ya $
(felafel Q25; 7:30am-9pm)
Sabich
, an Israeli sandwich lovingly stuffed with hard-boiled
eggs, hummus, and fried eggplant, is just one highlight on the menu at this cheerful open-
air eatery on the Pana dock side, near the connecting path. Saturday mornings there's
jachnun
, Yemeni bread rolls that sit in the oven overnight.
ISRAELI
Shanti Shanti $
(8a Calle 3-93; mains Q20-25; 7am-8pm; )
With terraced seating cascading down to the
lakeside, this makes a pleasant perch for hippie staples like falafel, curried veggies and
hearty soups.
ISRAELI
Drinking & Nightlife
While many
pedranos
spend their evenings shouting the lord's praises at evangelical con-
gregations, visitors tend to prowl San Pedro's hard-partying bar scene.
Café Las Cristalinas
( 7am-9pm; )
To savor a shot of the coffee grown on the surrounding slopes (and roas-
ted here), head for this thatched-roof structure on the way up from the Pana dock to the
center of town.
CAFE
PUB
El Barrio
(7a Av 2-07, Zona 2; 5pm-1am)
This boisterous pub on the path between the two docks has
one of the most happening happy hours in town. Every night has a different theme but
come Friday evenings, the fun reaches a crescendo.
Alegre Pub
(8a Calle 4-10)
Near the Pana dock, the Alegre is a bit worse for wear but still a cheerful wa-
tering hole for San Pedro's cast of characters. Shoot pool with the locals (Tz'tujil rules) in
the way-laid-back rooftop garden.
