Why Travelers Love LA PRETZELERIA
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Super nice place to enjoy some German food, beer and play a round in the hardest mini golf course of Lake Atitlan. Nice garden area and cute German shepherds running around. Would definitely come back! We absolutely loved the food, beer selection, and vibes of the place — but most importantly the service was incredible. The amazing staff went out of their way to help us navigate our way back to our hotel via tuktuk and boat in the pouring rain. Their kindness and generosity made a huge impact on our trip visiting lake atitlan. We appreciate you so very much!! Such a cute little spot to eat and do something a little different while in Lake Atitlan. Jorge was awesome behind the bar, & they have a good beer selection. Jorge even timed our pretzel to be baked while we were on round 7 of mini golf so it was fresh and ready once we finished playing. The cheese spread that accompanied the pretzel was to die for and the salad was a very generous portion. Highly recommend stopping by this German inspired spot.

We stopped here because it was cloudy and figured we should play some mini golf. Jorge working the bar/restaurant was so nice and welcoming. We had the Obazda which came with a delicious homemade pretzel. We also had a salad that was fresh and yummy. Highly recommend!
