If you are walking from old town Paraty, this will be the first beach bar when you hit Jabaquara…read more It also might be the largest of the beach bars. We walked all the way down the beach, and thus, this was our last stop before heading back to the main town. I wish we had discovered it earlier! The cachaca flamed fish was incredible. And the Jorge Amado cocktail was likewise delicious. The location is perfect with a picturesque view of the bay. Service is also great, and you can use their beach chairs for free if you order drinks.

While in Paraty we went to Pub Van Gogh twice. It's located in the historic town center, easily…read moreaccessible from either side of town with multiple local artwork shops and street vendors nearby. They offer five or six artisan burgers which are all reasonably priced (~$8-9 USD)--I'd also suggest getting two burgers and sharing. We were there during the low season so not crowded at all. The lone negative experience was the entertainment fee added to our bill for a cover song singer (it's apparently standard in Brasil to charge an entertainment fee when there is live music). That charge in addition to the 10% tip they arbitrarily added made it a little more expensive than we anticipated. Overall, great experience and reasonably priced food. Would recommend if you'll be there for 4-5 nights. Also offers a reprieve from the rice and beans that you are endlessly bombarded with at every restaurant.
