Pachapapa
Pachapapa Cocina Cusqueña y Más
A courtyard restaurant next to Plaza San Blas, roasting guinea pig and flatbreads in a wood-fired oven, making it a popular choice for tourists to try local Cusco dishes.
Located in a colonial house courtyard at Plaza San Blas 120, this restaurant features soft lighting and is often candlelit in the evening, offering a quiet atmosphere. It specializes in local Cusco cuisine, with wood-fired roasted guinea pig (cuy) as its signature dish, which requires booking about an hour in advance and is officially priced at around 125 PEN. Stuffed peppers (rocoto relleno), alpaca skewers, and oven-baked flatbreads are also highly recommended, while pachamanca is only available for group bookings. Reservations can be made via the official website or OpenTable. The average cost is about 60–140 PEN per person. It is about a 10-minute walk uphill from Plaza de Armas, and the San Blas area has many steps.
