Food Scene

This restaurant has a huge beautiful tree in the courtyard. We just love the atmosphere. There are many wonderful restaurants in Merida to choose from, but this was our first love.

Mr. Pampas is a Brazilian Restaurant, we just love this place; It has a wonderful buffet for salads and more. There is a wheel on the table that you turn to YES when you want the amazing meat delivered to your table, the waiters will flock to your table with meat hot off the rotisserie, and they slice off the exact amount you would like. Are you getting full? Turn the wheel to NO, take a rest. When you are ready to start again, change to YES... This is one of the best restaurants in Merida. Wear a sweater; it can be a little too cool for our liking. In addition, it can be a little loud, but hey, it's Mexico.

Sightseeing

Chichen Itza is the more famous Pyramid, but we prefer to go to Uxmal, number one we believe it is more beautiful, you can walk up on a couple of the Pyramids and see forever (breathtaking). Chichen Itza is further away and more commercialized, it is much busier as it is closer for the Cancun tourists.

Progreso, is a 45 minute drive from Centro Merida, it's on the Gulf of Mexico. The water isn't as nice as the Caribbean but there are some nice restaurants and lots of sun and wind for getting that holiday tan. Edit

Arts & Culture

Besides the beautiful mansions and museums, this Avenue has so much history. A must see... At Christmas this place is spectacular, right up until about the 10th of January when they take down the tree and lights, it's still spectacular anytime of the year.

Check it out; what a beautiful theater, even our grandchildren were impressed. In addition, Peon Contreras has a cafe/ restaurant on the south side of the building. Many tables are set up outside for you to sit and enjoy the evening breeze under a huge tree while sipping on a pina colada, enjoying a beer or a cappuccino. We have met many a good friends at this place.

This Zoo is out much further. You will need transit to get there, but once you are there and if you enjoy walking, it's not strenuous at all and it's a nice place to visit.

This is the home field for the "Leones de Yucatan" Mexican League baseball team. Lots of loud music at the park, they also sell food and drinks. If you are a smoker, leave them in the car or you will be asked to throw them and your lighter if you brought one in a big pile, when game is over you can go through the pile looking for what you left behind if you want, easier to just leave them in the car.

Getting Around

We use ADO when traveling from Cancun to Merida. Merida also has many taxi drivers (Our housekeepers husband) owns a brand new taxi and he would be happy to have you hire him for a day to take you anywhere you want. If he's busy there is always Uber. We also have public transit right outside our door every 15-20 minutes. We wouldn't recommend driving in Merida Mexico, as I said on my welcome page, unless you are fearless I wouldn't drive here. We sat for hours watching how they drove here in Merida, just to get a feel for it. It was nerve racking. You can rent vehicles if you still feel brave.

Drinks & Nightlife

Centro Merida and Paseo de Montejo have all that you need for enjoying the beautiful nights in Merida. Enjoy a horse drawn carriage ride from Centro along the beautiful Avenue of Paseo de Montejo and back to where they picked you up. We highly recommend you do this. The longer we are here the more we are sure to find; but so far this is perfect for us.
