Machu Picchu
Ollayanteytambo
Lima
This was the first restaurant we tried when we landed in Peru and it is still our top meal! The food was so good, it was hard to match this the rest of the trip! I recommend the cows heart skewer the most.
Panchita
This is a fine dining experience! Definitely on the pricier side, and I have very mixed feelings about the food. If you are a foodie, this is a must try place. The dishes are very artistic takes on classic Peruvian flavors. If you’re looking for dish...
Central Restaurant
This is a popular restaurant that has opened chains in the USA too, but definitely recommend trying it in its homelands. The food and the prices are so much better!
La Mar Cevichería Peruana
Cusco
One of the top 100 cafes in the world, and for good reason!! They have such unique blends that taste amazing! I still think about drinks I tried from time to time
Three Monkeys Coffee Cusco
Right outside of sachsayhuaman, you’ll find this restaurant. It definitely saved us from the hunger and the rain. You can try alpaca meat here too!
Sancris Restaurant Bar
This is a small stand in a marketplace filled with different food stands. It’s perfect for grabbing a coffee or a matcha and just walking around and grabbing bites from the different stands in the area
Brew Brothers Specialty Coffee - Cusco Restaurants
This was a very cute spot filled with art from Van Gogh. It’s great for brunch and they have some cute trinkets you can buy too
Van Gogh Speciality Coffee -Cuzco, Suecia 339, Cusco 08002, Peru
Organic from farm to table! This place was great! I had lost an item the night before and they were able to get it back to me the next day! The food was good, and I got a green lemonade mixed with the veggies from their garden - it was such an intere...
Organika Restaurant
This was inside a hostel, but it had such an amazing atmosphere. You can grab coffee, matcha, and even some of their merch!
Black Llama Coffee
An art museum, cafe, and store - they have it all! The museum is free to walk through and features art from local artists. You can also purchase some of the works too from their store.

Very cool! We tried our first guinea pig here and it was roasted in a giant oven

I love the styles at this store!

Very nice alpaca wool clothing! It’s right by town square and my Peruvian friend swears by them
PAKA® | Sustainable Alpaca Wool Outdoor Apparel from Peru
Machu Picchu
In the town right by Machu Picchu, I never expected to find this little Korean noodle shop. It was such a funny sight to see, but I definitely got my craving of spicy noodles in that day!
Bunsik K-Style Noodle Bar
Good fusion cuisine!
Restaurant in Machu Picchu - Full House Peruvian Cuisine
Ollayanteytambo
This hotel was inside the train station itself! If you need to get through the gates just let the guards know, or you’ll have to wait with the crowd to get in. This place also has a restaurant, farm, and brewery attached to it so there’s a lot to see...
