Things to do in Zacatlan
1. La casa de la abuela
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 123 reviews
Reviewed By Peregringo - Mexico City, Mexico
I had breakfast at this restaurant, which seems to be the most traditional and authentic in town. Although it wasn't on the menu, I asked for huevos rancheros with mole on top instead of red sauce. It is a delicious combination and the owner --a lovely older woman (la abuela)-- came out to see how I lked it and to tell me about the prizes her mole has received. I recommend this place quite a bit for price, atmosphere and quality. There isn't much to choose from in Zacatlán, so I'd stop here for sure.

Try Zacatlán's traditional food (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and enjoy the best view of "los jilgueros" valley.

Fantastic view and the food is quite nice as well ...
You can see the whole "Barranca" or canyon below with the Mountains surrounding Zacatlan from almost any table in the restaurant.
The "sidra" or hard apple cider was quite nice and is a local specialty ... the tostadas I ordered were also quite nice and fresh.

We enjoyed Pozole both red and white, also tacos and tostadas, the service was warm, prompt and kind. Good place ! The food is not exactly from the region of Mexico but it is great Mexican food.
4. Tierra 44
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 21 reviews
Wine and beer, mexican and imported, and excelent traditional cuisine. Mrs. Vicky is well known in the region serving original, well prepared and healthy dishes from the Puebla food palette. Tierra 44 is also recognised for the extended wine selection, from all over Mexico, and also spanish, italian, chilenean, german, french and portuguese wines. At night becomes the only wine bar in town with an exquisite selection of cheese, ham, olives and spanish like tapas.

Small place one block from the "floral clock". Great service. Mom cooks - and she knows her business. Amazing food. Great service (it is worth repeating). Inexpensive. Good selection of decent wines (nothing really fancy, but well chosen) and local drinks, including a real local...MoreIt was a pleasure having you. We´ll be happy to see you soon! Thank you.
5. Cafe Del Zaguan

At the entrance there is a genuine coffee roaster in which the restaurant roasts its own beans then grinds them for the coffee they serve. It's interesting coffee -- light and flavorful. You can purchase coffee (beans or ground) on your way out.
The restaurant serves up a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Reasonable and the food -- all mexican regional -- is tasty. Can also order from the menu if you are not adventuresome.
6. Los Adobes

We ate breakfast here while staying in Zacatlan. We wanted to try a different place since the day before we had eaten at El Mirador, which is right across the street from Los Adobes. The prices in Los Adobes are very similar to those in El Mirador, although a few plates were 5 or 10 pesos cheaper. The service was pretty good, they have free wifi, and there is also a very good view of the hills out front (although the view is a bit better in El Mirador). I would suggest this restaurant as another good option if you visit Zacatlan.

Zacatlan can be pretty cold in the winter months as well as the rainy season. This cafe/bar serves up wonderful hot chocolate. If it's warm and sunny there are tables outside. If not get a cup to go and check out the famous clock in the square.

Best taquería ever!!! As a mexican I was surprised that I've never tasted anything like this, when you go be sure you try the following tacos: pastor, barbacoa, mixiote; and also the traditional chalupas.

Reviewed By JeanLouis C - Paris, France
We came in for lunch. Service was just fair. Nearly everything we asked for, they didn't have :-( We souls have left, unfortunately we didn't!
The dishes arrived, the presentation was awful, and the taste was not as it should!...
When we aimed for the bill they told us that the CC wasn't working. As we had no cash, suddenly the cc machine worked fine.
Avoid this place!

Regional food. Saturday and Sunday we have buffet service for lunch.
Reviewed By Grace C - Mexico City, Mexico
El restaurante se encuentra a las afueras del pueblo, sobre la carretera en lo alto, lo que permite tener una vista fantástica de todo el pueblo.
La comida es deliciosa y a muy buen precio, y el servicio muy bueno.
Su particularidad es un laberinto en su jardín, que tenía a los niños encantados.
Dentro del restaurante hay una pequeña área infantil, muy cómoda.
