The Deli in Panajachel (both locations) is certainly a favorite, and they have the best veg breakfast in town. Cafe Kitsch is inconsistent, but their falafel sandwich is usually good. For lunch or dinner, Tuscani is a great option. They have several veggie options, and the owner/chef is one of the few real chefs in the area. Believe it or not, the steak house, Guajimbos, has some great veggie options. They even make big salads for me (I eat there regularly because I perform there a couple nights a week). The Panajachel Center has several nice healthy dishes, too.

In San Marcos, Circles is okay. The curry at Restaurant Fe is amazing! Blind Lemon’s has a nice veggie burrito.

In San Pedro, I agree that Home is awesome. But they open a little late for us for breakfast, so we often go to Cafe La Puerta, just down the path. Between the two is The Buddha, which has some wonderful veggie dishes (Thai salad with tempeh…mmmm).

One of the restaurant gems of Lake Atitlan is closer to me, on the edge of Santiago Atitlan. Las Lagartijas is a tiny place with a much bigger menu than you might expect, and many veggie options.

Hey Peter – you’re more than welcome! I only wish that I was around San Pedro for longer so that I could come back and eat more pancakes!! Thanks for our kind words :) Wishing you all the best.

Thanks for your kind words regarding Home Cafe in San Pedro.
We do our best to serve up as healthy food as we can so it’s always nice to hear such positive feedback in response to our endeavours. We’re very happy to hear you liked the pancakes – it took us a while to perfect the recipe so nice that all the work paid off! Also pleased to hear that you tried kefir with us for the first time & enjoyed it!
Kudos on your skilled photographic work – you made our food extra delicious!

Gracias & continued Happy Travels,
Peter, Manager of Cafe Home San Pedro La Laguna, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala.

Yes, definitely do! I’m sure you’ll do Guatemala one day :D

Glad to hear you’re a fellow healthy eater! Surprised to hear that you switched from vegetarian back to meat-eating! I’ve never had a problem trying local food from any country as a veggie – though admittedly it’s always taken a bit more research and effort. That said, even the look of meaty street food is usually enough to turn my stomach :/ It’s all veggie for me!

I’ve still not made it to Chiang Mai, but am keen to go some time. Luke’s already been just a couple of years ago and we’re busy being hooked on Central America. But definitely in the future!

Deli Jasmin was just beautiful! Had a lovely vibe. Hope you make it there some time!

They were all really delicious, we were lucky to find so many good cafes! Thanks, Kim :)
