Restaurants in Trujillo Honduras

There are a variety of places to eat and drink in Trujillo. Although Trujillo is relatively small, these establishments are located in four very distinct locations: downtown Trujillo, the beach just below the town, the beach out by the airport and finally the area between Trujillo and the town of Santa Fe. The first two areas are within walking distance of each other, the third is within walking distance of the Christopher Columbus Beach Resort and The Trujillo Bay Hotel. It is easy to travel between these two areas by taxi, as they are only five minutes away by car, the last is harder to reach, however you can take the local transportation between Trujillo and Santa Fe to reach the establishments in this area . For the purpose of this listing, I am separating the establishments according to their location. They are not listed in any other specific order.

Santa Fe Area

Although actually not part of Trujillo, This area is so close and has a couple of great eateries, that I have felt compelled to include them!

Campamento Restaurant. Located only 4 km. from Trujillo on the road to Santa Fe, this restaurant offers a paradise setting amongst palm trees and next to the beach. Excellent seafood, as well as typical foods, such as iguana and tepesquintle are served here. Full bar service. Open from 7:00 a.m. till 10:00 p.m. daily.

El Caballero. The favorite spot for seafood amongst the locals. This is perhaps one of the best restaurants in for seafood in the north coast of Honduras. The setting is of course rustic, but the food is outstanding. The restaurant is located in the Garifuna community of Santa Fe, 12 km. west of Trujillo.
