This is our favorite neighborhood spot for tacos. Delicious tacos and aguas frescas. Great service and tables for sitting even though it's a street stand. It's a nice walk from Casita Romero. Try a volacan (a tostada with melted cheese and your choice of meat.)

Amazing french pastries and French owned. They also have a location in Old Town but their main kitchen is located just down the street in our lovely neighborhood. Everything is delicious! Go early because they send most of their stuff to their Old Town location. Prices are super reasonable as well.

Essentials

One of Puerto Vallarta's newest grocery stores. Great produce and you can pretty much find everything. It is a bit more pricey on some items and caters to a lot of North Americans. I like how they have free range options for meats and organic produce, but my go to is Costco and small local markets.
