Galápagos Deli
Galapagos Deli
Puerto Ayora's go-to budget meal: stone-baked thin-crust pizza, house-baked bread sandwiches and handmade ice cream, good for taking to the beach.
Located on Tomas de Berlanga Street near Avenida Baltra, this is one of the few affordable casual eateries on the island. You order and pay at the counter. The thin-crust pizza, baked on stone in a brick oven, has a strong reputation, and Fodor's specifically recommends the shrimp pizza. Sandwiches use house-baked white or whole-wheat bread, and many visitors take them along on the hike to Tortuga Bay. The homemade ice cream has been made since 2010, and the guide calls it one of Ecuador's best handmade ice creams. Other items include fish and chips, salads, carrot cake and ginger lemonade. Expect to pay about $8–15 per person. Open daily from about 10:00 to 21:30. It is busy at mealtimes but turns tables quickly; no reservations needed.
