The best take-away restaurants Chile

Voted "Chile's best picada" by popular vote in early 2012 and 2017, this delicatessen has been a local institution since 1932. The recipe has been handed down from generation to generation and Silvia, the current owner, continues the tradition. They serve round rolls filled with chorizo paste and cheese: the choripan and choriqueso. Eat two or three, accompanied by a glass of leche con plátano (banana milk), served at the single counter. Super kitsch decor. We can also take it to go. An authentic address to discover!

A simple and welcoming Italian-Belgian address to enjoy paninis respecting the Italian recipe... but with an extra Chilean soul! Preferably choose the Caprese or the Toscano panini, the bread is homemade and the products, although basic, do their job in terms of flavours! The coffees are also particularly tasty and are the only ones in the city to be prepared with the filter-paper technique. Still hungry? Opt for the chocolate cake for dessert. An address to remember for eating on the go!

A small artisanal bakery, a little out of the way, where you can find some sweet treats and succulent pastries. Soft or crispy, you can find all the classics of the genre: baguettes, sourdough bread, cheese bread, nut bread, chocolatines, croissants, cinnamon or chocolate buns, carrotcake, lemon cake or brownies. There's plenty to warm the soul! You can even sit down and enjoy the hot drinks offered by the house: the hot chocolate makes everyone agree!

A kind of small hut installed next to the football field, in the surfers' corner: Gladys sells very hearty tuna sandwiches, churrascos, fish dishes, ceviches... A good plan for those who are looking for a small snack to take away: the empañadas, for example, will do very well if you go on an expedition all day. Choose the cheese and tuna empanada or the vegetarian empanada with mushroom filling. You can also buy fresh bread and sweet tooths can enjoy cakes and pastries.

This large, bright café with comfortable leather benches offers excellent coffee, a quality lunch menu, delicious breakfasts and a wide choice of homemade beers. At any time of day, take a break and choose what awakens your taste buds: it's simple and it's good. In short, one of our favorite places in Puerto Varas thanks to its multicultural atmosphere and the concerts sometimes on weekends. The nostalgic ones will drink a pastis there! An address where to go with friends for an aperitif or with family to satisfy all appetites.

This charming little address, located at the landing stage, will allow you to enjoy a snack before jumping on the ferry. You will enjoy hot drinks, pastries, empanadas and kuchen, those sweet cakes of German origin. The coffees are really delicious and the place pays special tribute to him: just look at the decoration. They also sell local honey, the best we could taste in Patagonia! Finally, while tasting, browse through the collection of books dedicated to Patagonia: very instructive!

Between forests and glaciers, stop for a moment at this address after a day's walk on the Exploradores. Typical dishes (churrascos with local meat and cheese, waffles with dulce de leche), simple and delicious. You can also opt for a hot drink. Run by a family from Santiago who fell in love with the region, this small cafeteria has won national culinary competitions several times. The local products are really tasty, the meat (a delicacy!) and the cheese can't leave you speechless.

Here's a small, unpretentious local that's perfect for a refreshing stopover during the day, or for an aperitif. You'll find a whole range of sandwiches and burgers, as well as empanadas, salads, soups and delicious desserts. If your palate is a little dry, you'll find something to satisfy your appetite on the craft beer menu: lager, Ipa or stout, there's something to suit every taste. And don't forget to take a stroll around the small, leafy terrace: the view is not unpleasant! Home delivery also available.

Another very typical and cheap address! At the tía Berta, you can eat delicious empanadas made with meat, cheese, seafood or fish, which can be a meal in themselves. The best known is the tuna and cheese empanada. A simple and generous cuisine that uses fresh products: you can also order a shrimp salad, a vegetarian risotto, lobster or grilled tuna with sweet potato purée. A no-frills address that has been busy over the years.

Ideal when you want to take a break after a morning of cycling, this small address without fuss or hurry offers empanadas, quesadillas, sandwiches and other specialities made with fresh products. The portions are generous, but the service is rather slow... it doesn't matter because the wait is pleasant. On a colourful terrace, where mandalas, dream-catchers and other bohemian touches rub shoulders with a fruit garden, it's good to recharge one's batteries under a background of music remixed with a reggae sauce. An address to remember if you're hungry!

Located in the open air, this convivial space exudes Santiago's hip spirit: several food trucks offer street food to eat in or take away. From tattoo parlors to pop music, this is the place for friends to meet up, soak up the sun and linger over a beer and a good meal. Take a seat at a table, and a waiter will bring you the various menus associated with the different food trucks: we'll take care of everything for you! Sundays are best for live music.
