Jack's Café Bar Review

One of the most popular gringo hangouts in Cusco, owned by the guy who runs a thriving Irish pub in town, Jack's isn't just a spot to have a drink and check out some American and British magazines; it serves very fresh, very good, and frequently very large meals throughout the day, and features enough variety that you wouldn't be the first to eat here several times during your stay. For breakfast, try the big, fluffy pancakes. At lunch, order one of the towering salads or creative gourmet sandwiches (such as caramelized onions and salami). Finish with a dinner of "really hot green chicken curry" or a red wine, beef, and mushroom casserole. There are plenty of items for vegetarians, smoothies, wine and beer, as well as great coffee drinks and hot chocolate (for those cool Andean nights). And it's a friendly place to linger and meet fellow travelers, to boot.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
