Kiosko Roca
A family-run kiosk founded in 1932, famous for its Magallanic-style sausage sandwiches and banana milk, and once voted Chile's best casual eatery.
This family-run institution opened in 1932. Its signature is the choripán, a soft hallulla bun filled with sausage and house-made mayonnaise, usually paired with freshly blended banana milk. The cheese version, choriqueso, is also popular. The tiny shop has a counter for about 15 people, and its walls are covered in memorabilia from the Universidad de Chile football club. In 2012 it was voted Chile's best casual eatery in a national poll. Located at 875 Roca Street in the city center, a few minutes' walk from Plaza de Armas, it's ideal for breakfast or a quick lunch.
