Unbeatable views of the city. The only place to see sunset with amazing food and good drinks. Probably best chirzo tacos had in mexico. And the sausage is awesome.

One of the best spots and great taco's. Go there early so you can get a good spot for the view, but the food is also amazing here! Highly recommended

Definitely the best place in San Cristobal to have a beer and some nice locally made high quality food! The owner is awesome, gave us awesome insider tips to the city and hiking around Chiapas. Crowd was great wish I had a place like this back home in Canada. Cheers

One of the best meals we've had in Mexico! The table salsas were very nice as well, and it was easy to try a lot of different things even with 2 people as you can order single taco's. We were there after sunset but the view was still very nice. Would definitely recommend.

Great view. Tacos were good. Puerco de Jinjiebre was amazing. Burger was slammin. Cocktails were surprisingly good. Also bonus points for attentive and quick service. They were out of several items, but their menu is solid we had still had an A meal. Ate here three times and didn't get sick. Maybe others had a bad experience.

This place rocks! We came here 3 times for midday sandwich and beer, snack and Sunday afternoon live music. They have great beer and sandwiches especially sausage (homemade and smoked ) with Papas Fritas. The staff are very courteous, responsive, polite, friendly and appreciative. The view is fabulous in the afternoon. Don’t miss it!

Second time I'm going, second time I'm super happy. Service is excellent, food is great (with good vegetarian options), their artisanal beer is delicious (you'd go to a craft beer place and be served that, you'd be happy), and they have an amazing view of the whole city (and if sunset)! Last time we went they even had some live jazz, we had such a nice evening.

La Charcu is open again! A chill place to drink a beer and watch the sunset! I’ll definitely return.
