More than just a sandwich...

Flavor with Uruguayan roots

The choripán is much more than a sandwich: it's a traditional recipe originating in Uruguay, very popular in the Río de la Plata region, and closely linked to the culture of grilling and street food. At Bar Cafetería El Choripán, we pay homage to its origins, adapting the recipe to our style while maintaining the essence of a simple, tasty, and hearty sandwich.


Our choripán is made with crusty bread and perfectly cooked chorizo, achieving that perfect balance of flavor and texture that has made it an international classic. Alongside it, other specialties like the meat wafer and roasted pork leg complete a menu that blends tradition, popular cuisine, and recipes that everyone will love.



This fusion of flavors, with Uruguayan roots and a Canarian spirit, is part of our identity and what makes our place in Icod de los Vinos unique.

We'll definitely be back! They have amazing homemade roast pork leg. We ordered the meat roll, and it's a must-try. They even give you a small sampler of pork rinds when the leg comes fresh out of the oven! Delicious!
