The Best Places to Eat in West End, Roatán - Best Restaurants For Every Budget

Roatán might be famous for its beaches and coral reefs, but let’s not sleep on the food, there are so many great places to enjoy a meal or grab a drink while watching the sunset here. Whether you’re into seafood, vegan bowls, or the kind of pizza that makes you want to extend your trip another week, this article will help you find exactly what you’re looking for.

Roatán isn’t the cheapest place to eat, especially compared to other parts of Central America. But don’t worry, you’ll still find delicious food at every price point. After spending weeks tasting my way through West End, these are my absolute favorite places to eat.

The Best Restaurants in West End

Bariloche Grill

We weren’t even hungry when we walked into Bariloche Grill, but wow, best spontaneous decision ever. We split the shared meat platter and demolished every last bite. Everything was juicy, flavorful, and grilled to perfection. The portions are huge, so splitting is ideal (and budget-friendly!).

Bonus: there’s a little beach bar out front with cold drinks and an epic sunset view. Perfect place to kick off the evening.

Costa Dulce

This is an adorable little ice cream shop with cute outdoor seating that overlooks the ocean. After a hot afternoon or a salty swim, this is the spot for a cool-down treat.

Ipanema

This pier-side gem is a must-visit. Ipanema serves up strong margaritas, fresh Mexican food, and stunning ocean views. We ordered tacos and margaritas, and both were excellent.

Seawiches

Craving something healthy or plant-based? Head to Seawiches. This place has creative vegan dishes, sandwiches, salads, and smoothies, and even if you’re not vegan, the food is fresh and satisfying. Plus, the ocean view from the terrace is pretty spectacular.

C Level Pizza

If you’re only going to one restaurant on West End, make it this one. C Level Pizza is a tiny, no-frills spot, but the food is incredible. You can build your own pizza and they have so much to choose from you will definitely get what you want! It’s super popular for takeaway, so don’t be surprised if you see a stream of people walking around with pizza boxes.

Beacher’s West End

Beacher’s is a bit more under the radar than the resorty Beacher’s in West Bay, but the West End location is great for fish and seafood. Everything was fresh and well-cooked, and the service was super friendly. If you’re craving shrimp, grilled fish, or coconut rice, this is the spot.

Delicious food in Roatan!
