Taqueria La Chiapaneca

Antojitos La Chiapaneca is a local gem known for its authentic Mexican street food. This casual eatery is famous for its delicious tacos al pastor, topped with fresh pineapple and a variety of salsas. The bustling atmosphere and affordable prices make it a favorite among locals and tourists alike. 

Insider tip: Try the house-made aguas frescas to complement your meal and cool down in the Tulum heat.

A traditional Mexican taqueria that's a local favorite with great prices. It’s not the best spot for vegetarians, though you can enjoy some delicious quesadillas. I've heard the al pastor here is something special.

My 2nd favorite especially for late nights and it's cheap. Tacos al pastor? Yes Please! Can't skip this spot
