Anytime we are in Cozumel we make it a point to visit Pancho's Backyard. The food is delicious with excellent service by friendly and helpful staff. We were fortunate that there were Marimba players performing during our lunch, (Papa and daughter?), who provided a local flair to our experience. Be sure to go online and get the coupon for a...

This place is a great option, food was very good, ample portions and tasty. Tables are surrounded by tropical palms and garden with waterfall behind two musicians, a man and a woman with friendly faces, nice music, marimba, not too loud, just right. Service very good. Shop afterward in Los Cinco Soles for souvenirs, quality mexican clothing, tequila and jewelry.... More

Absolutely the best guacamole that I've ever had! Great food, great atmosphere and a great mango margarita!

Hidden gem, nice cool spot right off the main stretch. Waiter was very friendly and funny. WiFi was available which was a plus. Food was good and reasonably priced.

All, in all, go, have a good time, but visit some of the taquerias further up from the main street to get a good feel. Oh, they also do to-go... More

The food was tasty and well prepared, however the price was not consistent with the value. There were limited options on the menu for a late luncheon as dinner service started at 4:00PM.

On cruise ship days Cozumel can be crazy. This is a big reason to find Pancho's Patio. As soon as you enter you a greeted nicely and seated quickly. The band plays authentic music and lets guests participate. If you have been in Pancho's before, they bring you a sign to signal the number of visits. We sat with a... More
