Puerto Varas has many good to excellent restaurants, but the service in this area tends to be slow, so have patience. In addition to the restaurants below, there is Pim's, San Francisco 712 (tel. 65/233998), a country/western-style pub with burgers, sandwiches, American-style appetizers like buffalo wings, and salads. It is popular with locals and the nighttime ambience is very lively.
Two other good spots for a drink at night are the Barómetro, San Pedro 418 (tel. 65/236371), with a rough-hewn wood bar and tree-trunk tables, a cozy atmosphere, and snacks; and the Garage (no phone; located on San José next to the Copec gas station), a two-story place with wood tables and electronic music that is popular with 20- and 30-somethings.
