Antigua Taberna Queirolo is a gem in Lima! Founded in 1880 as a bodega and wine bar, it’s become a beloved spot for locals and travelers alike, right next to the archaeological museum. The place is huge, packed with history and old-world charm. The menu’s all in Spanish, which made ordering a little challenging, but I watched what others were having and went with a pesto-based soup—absolutely delicious! If you’re looking for an authentic Peruvian experience in a spot that’s been around for over a century, this place is a must.
From the moment you step inside you feel like you travelled back in time! A place that opened in 1880 and it still keeps the charm of the old days. The menu is quite extensive with traditional flavours and a large selection of alcoholic beverages. The food is simply delicious and the portions are generous. Although the prices may be quite elevated, you are compensated by an attentive staff and a truly unique decor.
The best spot in Lima to try a Pisco Sour or a Chilcano. The two classic Peruvian cocktails. This is the oldest continually functioning bar and restaurant in Lima Peru. It was opened in 1880 and has the Santiago Queirolo distillery and shop next door. A true credit to Pueblo Libre and greater Lima. It's one block back from Plaza Bolivar in Pueblo Libre. And is definitely a hidden gem in Lima Peru!
Stumbled in by accident in this wonderful old taberna. Great vibe and seems to be completely unknown by tourists. Most customers were locals. Great food, all the traditional peru stuff. Friendly staff. And not expensive. Good wines too. Great place!!!!
