Tulum is known for it’s beautiful beaches, pristine sand, world class food! The hotel zone is filled with these amazing restaurants but today we will give you our best recommendations for the more hidden gastronomic wonders. That way you can enjoy the best authentic Mexican food Tulum has to offer.

Remember that Tulum is a cash only kind of town so make sure you stop at an ATM before heading out!

Breakfast food

If there is something Tulum does well are its breakfast tacos. One of our favorite spots is call Don Honorio Taqueria. It is located in Tulum town, every taxi driver will know exactly where to take you. There are 5 types of tacos and our recommendation is that you order 1 round to try all of them!! Then, after finding the ones you like the best, you can order more.

On a good day I can personally eat 4 tacos max!

They also offer a great selection of Aguas Frescas (Fresh Waters)- Watermelon, Jamaica, Horchata, Tamarin, and lime to enjoy with your meal or an authentic Mexican Coke!

Dinner

For dinner, on the treats you must give yourself while in Mexico is an order of Tacos Al Pastor, preferably with some delicious salsa! La Chiapaneca fulfills off of these criteria. Tacos are around 7 pesos each and mindblowingly delicious! You can get them with cheese to make a quesadilla. Each taco comes with onion, cilantro, and a pineapple which helps bring out all of the flavor. Add the final touches of lime and some delicious salsa and viola! A dinner you’ll remember forever.
