El Patio

Delicious food and just what we needed after a long morning of travelling! I had the coconut chicken bowl and it was lovely, my partner had the chicken burger which he said was great too. A cute little place with tasty drinks and friendly staff.

I love eating here. All the things I’ve tried are delicious but my favorite thing here are the Happy Fries. They are so good with pico de gallo, a bean hummus & sour cream drizzle.
I love their Deli & Buddha Bowls. The fish tacos are fabulous as well.
The service is always friendly & helpful.

A nice little restaurant just a few minutes from the main road. Their tacos are great and they have a good selection of bowls for those not overly hungry. It felt like a place where they put effort in what they serve.

It was a pleasant surprise that their lemonade wasn't too sugary. The lemon one was deliciously sour with lots of ice.

Really good fruit salad: ripe papaya, banana, watermelon. $5 good size bowl. Asked for no yoghurt which was perfect as dairy free. Really pretty presentation . Good iced Americanising coffee. Pretty decor and setting. Clean toilets with soap (rarety in bocas) The soap shop a lovely touch too. They have really nice natural hand made soaps, sunscreens , conditioners , essential oils. Pricey but as it’s a specialty shop on the island it’s reasonably understandable.

Very good food in a relaxed atmosphere. Jerk Chicken bowl was nice.

Plenty of options to choose from - sweet and savoury.

I never took a photo as I was just out for a quick lunch but the food was literally divine. I had the shredded coconut chicken bowl and I could eat it every day for the rest of my life. I've had some rubbish food in Panama and this makes up for it.

Chilled place to have a coffee,giving Bali vibes.

Really vibey place with lots of good food options. I tried the Sour Pink smoothie and Happy Fries, both of which were good.

El Patio has been a favourite during our stay in Bocas town. It's reasonably priced for the area and the food is delicious, fresh and perfect for the hot weather. The staff are very welcoming and they play great music. Favourites have been the fish tacos and and smoothies. We came multiple times during our stay and can't recommend enough!

I had the shrimp tacos with slaw, aioli. It was delicious. I hope to go more this visit.

Breakfast and dinner here were very good. It has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu had plenty of choice and clearly some thought has been put into the dishes and accompaniment. Would recommend.

Delicious and fresh food!! Probably the best veggie tacos I have ever had Great service too

Very good food and service, quiet pricy for the food but worth a visit

Delicious breakfast and smoothies! Best so far on the island.

We had a good breakfast here. Service was quick and the food was good. At the time we were here, only the outdoor patio was available for seating (the indoor space was closed) and we were lucky to grab the last available table on the patio. The few other times we walked by this restaurant, the patio was packed so it's definitely popular: if you're lucky enough to snag a table, you will probably enjoy it! We didn't experience any issues with service: we ate here 45 minutes before needing to meet a boat captain for a tour and we still arrived to the dock on time.

Amazing place with the best natural smoothies I've ever had. The tacos are impressive too, a great fusion of Panama-Mexico food. And economic! Extremely reccomended if you visit Bocas.

Best Food I Have Ever Had. Must See

Delicious healthy food and juices. Cute outdoor dining area surrounded by plants. Great friendly service. I had the tacos which were very good. Gets pretty busy around 7:30.

I really had a great burger which id struggle to find even in Rome as such quality.. simply unexpected considering that its Panama, but really good..

Went a couple of times during by 3-day trip and LOVED IT!! The food is amazing, healthy and delicious!!

Also, the owner Ozzy is super friendly and recommended us a lot of places to visit during the trip and where to go surfing in the island! Overall, the experience was a 10/10! Suuperr recommend✨🙌🏽
