Restaurants in Cap Haitian

Cap Deli veggie pizza and passion fruit juice
Cap Haitien has many restaurants – here are some. All seem to take American money and credit cards. Please don't order lambi (conch) - they are endangered!

Cap Deli - This restaurant is along the main road Buccaneer (Blvd du Cap-Haitien) that runs along the bay and port and as a pizza and burger joint is a good place for lunch within walking distance of Hotel Roi Christophe. It has covered patio seating upstairs with views of the port, or dining inside. See menu photos, lots of vegetarian options, slowish service but interesting views for waiting.

Lolos - Also within walking distance of Hotel Roi Christophe, Lolo’s has outdoor partially covered seating in a nice ambiance of Haiti art and outdoor lighting – a nice place for dinner. They make their own pasta! I’ve had the flatbread, and pasta with alfredo sauce, but my favorite was the pumpkin spheres because they are so different. They are gooey melted cheese balls with a pumpkin puree coating. Because there is only 3 and they are rich, they would be better with a salad, or small side of pasta. See menu photo, vegetarian options, not horribly slow service, nice ambiance for waiting.


Auberge Villa Cana – Walk through the hotel property towards the back and you will come to the restaurant (see this post for hotel info). I didn’t take a photo of the menu but remember it was typical Haitian food, and maybe burgers, with not many vegetarian options. The Haitian spaghetti with no meat was very good, and they have juices. Typical slow service.


Lea Market – This is a relatively new modern grocery store on Rue 5 Blvd (see facebook page) that has a deli (sandwiches and juices) and western-style foods (imported mainly from Europe) – cheese and dairy products, wine, good chocolate, packaged and canned foods. It is very clean. They don’t give goudes as change if you pay in American dollars, but you can use a credit card!

Hotel Roi Christophe restaurant - The restaurant has a nice setting on a covered porch in front of the hotel. They offer burgers and sandwiches, appetizers such as the mozarella and tomatoes pictured, typical plates of seafood, chicken, and goat, and ice cream for dessert! My cheese sandwich and french fries were good. Please don't order the lambi/conch - it is engangered! Service wasn't too slow.

  1. Well done... you really need to add LaKay and Boukanye here... not to mention the Roi Christophe itself...
