Guidebook for San Miguel de Allende
Food Scene
Great place to buy ground espresso and prepared coffees. I like to ask for the House blend ground with the #5 (fine blend) so I can make my own coffee at home. They also have a great almond pastry, as well as others to choose from.
Limited seating, so maybe order a cup and take a walk to the park or the jardín.
They have another location just up the street, which I'll also mark on the map. Same coffee/menu, different name, but has a really nice patio.

Nice courtyard restaurant right by the Parroquia. Good for breakfast and lunch. Try their chilaquiles. The guayaba butter is tasty, too! Occasional live music adds to the ambiance.

Organic dishes, and a very popular restaurant for visitors. Get there early because there's always a line of people waiting outside the door!

If you're in the mood for seafood, El Manantial is a must-visit. They serve great, fresh seafood tacos of all kinds. A little off the beaten path, but you can walk or take a quick taxi from the Centro. They have fun decor, and a nice bar area if you want to stop by for a drink.

Yummy breakfast, reasonable prices. Although the restaurant is quite dark, you can't beat the value.

Best birthday cakes. Ever. Choose from vanilla, chocolate, mocha, orange, carrot and tres leches. I've tried them all, and each is heavenly. They also have a selection of pies, cookies and other sweets.

20 Ancha de San AntonioIf you get sick while you're visiting, walk over to the Farmacia del Ahorro. Next door they have a doctor who will see you for free. Of course, they prescribe medicines by the pharmacy's brand, but they're a bargain compared to what you pay in the grocery's pharmacy.
There's another doctor in the Farmacia del Ahorro in the Centro by the Starbuck's, but the hours are hit and miss.
