Barraca do Pepe

This legendary beach kiosk is famous for its laid back vibe, its fresh, tasty sandwiches and snacks, and the beautiful young people that gather here. The sporty young types that frequent this stretch of Barra da Tijuca's beach gather here to tuck into light pita sandwiches and smoothies by day, while after dark music spills from the bar and the attention turns to cocktails, beers and bar snacks. The type of place where you will feel perfectly at home in beach wear at any time of day or night, Barraca do Pepe is arguably the most famous beach bar in Rio, and, while it's not fine dining, the beach setting, friendly service and good quality ingredients make Barraca do Pepe the perfect spot to eat on a sunny afternoon or balmy evening in Barra da Tijuca.
