🍽️ El Bolsón Food Tour: Best Eats, Ice Cream, Empanadas, Steaks & Desserts in Patagonia Argentina | Where to Eat in El Bolsón 🇦🇷🗻

🌄 Introduction to El Bolsón & Appetite for Adventure

In today’s video, we’re taking you on a mouthwatering food tour of El Bolsón, a scenic mountain town nestled in Patagonia, Argentina. Surrounded by crystalline rivers, hidden waterfalls, and enchanting forests, El Bolsón is a haven for hikers and outdoor lovers. After action-packed days on the trails, big appetites await. That was definitely the case for us—between hikes, we dove headfirst into the town’s vibrant culinary scene, exploring restaurants, breweries, ice cream shops, and bakeries.

🥟 Starters & Empanadas: The Perfect Beginning

No food adventure in Argentina starts without empanadas, and in El Bolsón, the crispy, golden “empanadas fritas” with juicy meat fillings are a must. Served alongside fresh bread and a beetroot-infused dip, the meal is complemented by a bottle of Finca Las Moras, a triple blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. The flavors set the tone for an epic food journey ahead.

🥩 Parrilla Perfection: Suprema de Pollo & Meat Medleys

If you crave grilled meats, El Bolsón delivers. At the local parrilla, we ordered “Suprema de Pollo” (breaded chicken cutlet) and the hearty “Parrilla Completa,” a mixed grill featuring Patagonian lamb ribs, chorizo, and the adventurous chinchulines (beef intestines). Each cut is tender, flavorful, and juicy, especially when paired with a dollop of chimichurri and the house favorite—creamy, sweet pumpkin mash. Pro tip: portions are enormous, so consider sharing!

🍕 Patagonian Pizza & Massive Milanesa

Lunch at Novena brought surprises, like the Patagonian pizza—topped with gooey mozzarella, ham, bacon, and four fried eggs! Unusual, hearty, and satisfying, it fueled us after a morning of exploring. The legendary milanesa napolitana (breaded chicken or veal topped with tomato sauce and cheese) arrives in Fred Flintstone portions, literally spilling off the plate. Again, pumpkin mash is the ideal side to balance out the rich flavors.

🍰 Cakes, Pastries & Dessert Delights

Dessert is an institution in Argentina, and El Bolsón is no exception. We sampled decadent chocolate sponge cake layered with rich fillings and coconut tarts topped with dense, sweet coconut and fruit glaze. The portions are generous and satisfying, leaving us in a delicious sugar-induced food coma.

🍦 Ice Cream Heaven: Dulce de Leche & More

No visit to El Bolsón is complete without a stop at the local heladería (ice cream shop). Even after a huge meal, we couldn’t resist a quarter-kilo tub featuring three flavors: dulce de leche with meringue (Sam’s all-time favorite), Andean chocolate, and forest berry mousse. Each bite is creamy, rich, and packed with local flavor. The verdict? Dulce de leche reigns supreme, but the forest berries are a refreshing treat on a hot day.

🍻 Breweries, Beers & Night Bites

For a taste of El Bolsón’s laid-back nightlife, we recommend checking out one of the town’s many artisanal breweries. Beer is often paired with local spins on pub food, like loaded fries.
