La Buga Gastro Market is a lively food hall over the water in Bocas Town, Bocas del Toro, just off Main Street. Several small kitchens share one seaside space, so everyone in your group can order exactly what they feel like and still sit together.
Choices run from arepas for breakfast to Italian pastas, fresh poke bowls and sushi, juicy burgers and seafood plates. The bar keeps the drinks coming, and a DJ often sets the mood in the evening, with the sea right below your table. It is a fun, social place that works for a quick bite or a long night out, and it is popular with both travelers and locals. For groups who can’t agree on dinner, it is one of the easiest restaurants in Bocas del Toro.
La Buga Gastro Market is open every day from 9am to 11pm.
From Saigon Bay it is a short taxi or bike ride into town. Prefer a food court by the beach? Visit Skully’s Food Court in Big Creek, or browse our Bocas del Toro travel guide.
