Guidebook for San Juan Bautista
Food Scene
Excellent food, coffee, and even beers! Plus they display local artists, grind/roast their own beans, and even have a book swap! C.Mon, who doesn't love a good ol' fashioned book swap!? ;-) It's sooooooo SJB.

Good burger & fries joint where you can still get a glass bottle of Coke - or Fanta! A bit pricey, but everything in SJB is.

Essentials
It's SJB, so there's no Walmart, Safeway, or Whole Foods . . . but we've got Windmill! It's a local market, but they'll have what you need in a pinch. Deli is quite good, and the fresh produce beats the big guys.

Local Restaurants
San Juan Bautista is a small town, but luckily, there are a few great places to eat!
The #1 place in San Juan Bautista to eat! Excellent and authentic Mexican food w/GINORMOUS portions. I personally recommend getting 1 order of the chicken nachos - with 2 or more plates to split it. You'll all still go home full! And happy too if you wash it down with a margarita . . . ;-)

Hard to beat a great burger, fries and a coke - old school glass bottle and all! Prices are a bit steep here, but at least the burgers are worth it.

Local coffee shop that makes a mean cuppa joe. Great coffees, they grind there own beans right inside the shop, and they have one of the nicer patios in town. Relax, sip your latte, and grab a book from the book swap outside!
