1. Innie's Restaurant
Location: South Road
Hours: 7AM—2PM daily
Price: $7.50 USD per serving
Innie's has classic Garifuna food that is served with cassava and plantains. Try the hudut which should be found in most restaurants in the village.

2. Siomara's Restaurant
Location: South Road
Hours: 10AM—8PM daily
Price: $5.00 USD per serving
This tiny restaurant is a classic. Every time I come to Hopkins I go grab the usual Belizean breakfast. If I'm not mistaken, the owners are immigrants from Honduras. And... the food is good, fast and cheap. Well, cheap for Hopkins at least.

3. North Side Kitchen
Location: Sea Front
Hours: 7AM—9PM daily
Price: $5.00 USD per serving
Like many of the local restaurants in Hopkins, the business location is merely an extension of the people's home. And that's not a bad thing, it means that the cooking is just like mom's cooking. Bundiga, a traditional dish with fish, coconut, and green plantains as ingredients is normally a special of the day.

4. Tugucina Gloria
Location: Sea Front
Hours: 10AM—8:30PM daily (Closed Sundays)
Price: $5.00 USD per serving
Chef Gloria is quite the cook in Hopkins. So much so that she has prepared meals for Prince William and Kate Middleton. She offers authentic Garifuna cooking classes if you're interested in the cuisine as well.

5. Nice Cream
Location: Seafront Road
Hours: 11AM—9PM daily
Price: $2.00 USD per serving
After walking around the village for a while, we found dairy-free ice cream with coconut & cassava! This place is found in a colorful little verandah with a homey feel because it's actually someone's home converted to an ice cream shop.
