THE DIVE BAR

DRIFTWOOD BEACHBAR & PIZZA SHACK
Read moreIt's hard to imagine a more uncluttered decor: it doesn't matter, you come here to drink (a lot) and eat with your fingers good pizzas or other more elaborate dishes (catch of the day, tacos, vegetarian preparations, etc.). Sundays are all about barbecued meat, fish and sausages, but you'll need to come along on Tuesday evenings from 7pm for jam sessions, when the whole village will be with you. On Thursday evenings, you'll enjoy a softer musical atmosphere.
THE WINE HOUSE
Read moreSurprising and perhaps the best place in the country to taste wine. Because this is not only a bar, but a small company of connoisseurs specialized in the import and distribution of wines from all over the world. After visiting the ruins of Cahal Pech, it is a perfect stopover to restore your health, sitting on a large leather sofa or on stools around old barrels that serve as a table. The cheese and sausage boards are served with baguette and olive oil. Nice and accessible.

BARRIER REEF SPORTS BAR
Read moreA perfect bar for watching sporting events on TV, but also for listening to live music. Friday night jam sessions. Food is also available à la carte, but the main attraction is the atmosphere and the cocktails. This iconic Caye Caulker bar was unfortunately completely destroyed by fire in November 2023, but we've chosen to leave it here because it will probably be quickly rebuilt under its energetic Texan-born owner, who won't let down his employees who are like his family.
