Welcome to Cholula's Most Popular Corner
La Lunita has been on this same corner in Cholula, right behind the famous ruins, since 1939. It is
undeniably
Cholula's hottest nightspot for drinks of all kinds, boasting the best sangrias in the world, not just all of
Mexico! La Lunita also has a huge regional menu, starting with breakfast. You can order food at all hours of the
day or night at La Lunita, they have a large selection of appetizers and "botanas" to enjoy with your drinks,
or try to choose from the vast offerings of regional dishes, including 9 soups!
The recipes for these tasty regional specialties have been in owner Gregorio Porras Vasquez's family for generations.
You'll be hard pressed to find such a varied menu in any other small fonda, just look at some of the dishes being
prepared for you in the La Lunita kitchens:
Envueltos de Mole Poblano
Carne de Conejo en Pipi�n Verde a la Mantequilla
Huitlacoches con Rajas y Queso
Quesadillas de Huitlacoche or Flor de Calabaza
Taquitos Poblanos con Pollo
Several scrumptious seafood dishes
Chalupas Poblanas
AND ABOUT 50 MORE DISHES, TOO NUMEROUS TO MENTION HERE, TOO TEMPTING TO
SAY NO!
One of the very best parts of La Lunita is the decor! The bar is packed with all kinds of antiques, dating back
to the opening of La Lunita in 1939. It's a super fun and interesting place to have drinks, or eat dinner; you
are sipping the best sangria in the world, looking out at the green mound of ruins in front of you with a huge
16th century church on top of it! and
surrounded with memorabilia of almost the whole 20th century. Then as you move back to a table to enjoy your meal,
the walls are painted with colorful reproductions of the murals and codices of the pre-Hispanic ruins! There are cut
paper decorations blowing in the cool, Puebla breezes. It's a perfect ambience for enjoying this special town and
the special food of this region, perhaps after visiting the amazing ruins, or anytime.
DON'T FORGET ABOUT "LA OTRA LUNITA", La Lunita's little sister, located under the old, stone railroad bridge at
2 Oriente #605, where you can enjoy an open patio and gardens, with all the same great food and drink.
