San
Pedro Sula has some of the best restaurants in Honduras. There is
such an extensive selection of them, that it is impossible to include
them all in a listing. We have however, made an effort to list some
of the better and more popular ones. Even though some of these may
seem expensive by local standards, it would be very hard to find
a better value for your dollar elsewhere. Many restaurants have
begun the practice of adding a 10% service charge on your bill,
to cover for your tip, so it is a good idea for you to check your
bill before you leave a tip. Normally, a 10% tip is expected. Our
listing includes fast food restaurants, the better comedores in
town as well as more elegant eateries. For your convenience, we
have set them apart in categories based on the type of food they
offer: |
| Cafe's |
|
