Casa Barroca occupies an 18th-century house on 7 Oriente in Puebla, pairing artisanal Mexican cooking with a tapas bar and a gallery courtyard.

Antojitos Tomy on 5 Poniente is where Puebla eats cemita poblana, chanclas and chalupas at one counter, from nine in the morning until nine at night.

Antojitos Tomy on 5 Poniente is where Puebla eats cemita poblana, chanclas and chalupas at one counter, from nine in the morning until nine at night.

Attico 303 crowns Hotel Casa Rosa in Puebla with a cathedral-level terrace, pouring cocktails beside Spanish plates and contemporary Pueblan cooking.

Attico 303 crowns Hotel Casa Rosa in Puebla with a cathedral-level terrace, pouring cocktails beside Spanish plates and contemporary Pueblan cooking.
