Food selections will depend on the time of day, adapting to what is traditionally enjoyed at each moment.
· Breakfast: Start with warm atole and tamales, fresh-baked bread with coffee, or a vibrant fruit smoothie—comforting and full of tradition.
· Lunch: Enjoy a market antojito, a taco with craft beer on a scenic terrace, and a cocktail or artisanal ice cream to welcome the golden hour.
· Dinner: As night falls, San Miguel transforms. The vibrant street food scene reflects the energy and flavors of its people. Enjoy authentic antojitos, tacos and cocktails.
Every dish tells a story. Let San Miguel’s flavors guide you, and experience the city beyond the streets.

5.00We really enjoyed our tour and evening with our guide Julieta! Her knowledge of the history of San Miguel de Allende and the great food she introduced us to made for a great evening. If we go back to San Miguel de Allende I will definitely book another tour with Julieta. One of the beautiful rooftop restaurants she brought us to she introduced us to some of the local wine along with the food. I was blown away by the quality of the wine from the region along with the food and Julieta’s passion that made the evening special. Please consider booking a tour with Julieta’s company (Mexican Terroir). It will only make your time in San Miguel more enjoyable!

5.00Susana Ojeda Orranti was our tour guide in Historic Guanajuato- she was flexible with the time we met & planned an outstanding tour of the city to meet our needs. Susana is a very pleasant, knowledgeable, patient tour guide- we learned about the Revolution & those involved- her story telling brought the history & city alive for us- she shared tips on where to eat, find special treats & other must see sights. I highly recommend Susana O when you are in Guanajuato! Thank you Susana
