Telefónica Gastro Park

Top choice in Tijuana


At the edge of the city's industrial zone perches this collection of food trucks helmed by the city's most innovative rising chefs. Each has a specialty, be it breakfast, tacos, tostadas, burgers, vegan dishes, charcuterie, ramen and the like. The strong sense of community and experimental ethos yield delicious (yet super affordable) results.

The food trucks and outside tables back up to a brick warehouse containing a coffee shop, wine bar and craft brewery, with 28 beers on tap. The look of the place is cheerful and funky, with furnishings constructed from recycled surfboards and wine bottles, and abundant piñatas and potted cacti. The children's playground makes it a great choice for families.
