Community Hostel

Community Hostel's rooftop restaurant and bar is one of the friendliest tables in Old Town Quito, perched five blocks from Plaza Grande with panoramic views over the colonial center that turn magical once the city lights come on. Open to the public, not just hostel guests, it's known for its sociable, family-style dinners—a great way to meet fellow travelers—plus genuinely good international cooking with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, and some of the best coffee in the city. Warm, welcoming, and gay-friendly, it's a relaxed, locally recommended spot for a meal or a sunset drink while exploring historic Quito.
