4 Best Restaurants in Northern Belize, Belize

Crabby's Restaurant

$$ Fodor's choice

This seafood restaurant is the go-to dining option for both visitors and locals in Sarteneja. Sitting across the street from the Caribbean Sea, Crabby's offers stunning views of the bay and the many fishing boats lining up the shore. Seating is mostly outdoor, with a rustic yet homey feel. Grilled lobster (when in season), shrimp and fish fillet accompany heaps of rice and beans for lunch. Lunch special changes daily and the restaurant is open for breakfast and dinner, too. Come for the views and stay for the richly whipped desserts of frappes and homemade ice cream.  

June's Kitchen

$

The best breakfast in Corozal is served by Miss June at her home, but there's only seating for about a dozen guests on the open-air patio. Everything is homemade, freshly prepared, and served by Miss June and her family. For example, you can have a delicious breakfast of an omelet, pepper sausage, fried potatoes, warm bread, and freshly squeezed orange juice for about BZ$10. Lunch is delicious, and the entire menu can (and will) be spoken in a few words: likely stew chicken, stew beef, or stew pork, plus a daily special. Delivery is available, brought to you by Miss June's husband on his bike.

Liz's Fast Food

$
You can get a sack full of tacos, sabutes (corn tortillas topped with refried beans, shredded stewed chicken, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and cilantro), empanadas, garnaches (fried corn tortillas with refried beans, grated cheese, onions, habanero pepper, and cilantro), and other mestizo dishes here for almost nothing. Most items, though small as a sand dollar, are extremely tasty and cost only a Belize dollar for two or three. Daily specials may include fish, beans and rice, stew chicken, or other Belizean dishes, all extremely inexpensive. Place your order at a takeout window in the flaking green, streetside stall.

Tradewinds Restaurant

$$

The "house restaurant" for the Orchid Bay Resort, Tradewinds is run by David and Demaris, an American-Belizean couple. The menu features adequate American pub food such as burgers and wings, along with ceviche and other seafood and some traditional Belizean dishes such as rice and beans with stew chicken. Once a week there is a soup night, which attracts locals for an inexpensive night out and a chance to benefit the local community---one-half of the evening's proceeds go to support various good works in the community.
