Nicaragua Restaurant Tips by BorderHopper

Flamingo Bar, Granada: side walk seating for your dining & drinking

The food is really nothing to write home about, its typical pub food. But if you need a nice lunch or some food to go along with your cervecas then this might be an option for you. We chose a table at the front of the pub which opens up to the street. Its a busy area and a great spot for people watching. We were entertained watching older Gringo's flirt with the younger Nica girls who were selling snacks nearby. Kind of reminded me of "Farangs" in Thailand. "Farangs" are to Thailand as "Gringos" are to Latin America. As for the food...it was fine and went well with my beer(sss).

Tele Pizza of Granada, Nicaragua: Hungry in Nicaragua?

We were very pleased with our yummy meals at Tele Pizza. The food was great! Probably the best we had in Nicaragua. Seating is around the courtyard of a traditional Spanish colonial house with fountains and lights strung across the courtyard. The ambiance is nice & social. There is a good mix of local people and tourists here at Tele Pizza. The service staff is friendly, prices very reasonable, and ambiance is fun! We had pizza and wine

Favorite Dish: Pizza and wine...and maybe a glass or two of Nicaraguan beer.

Address: near Convento San Francisco in Granada
