Where to eat in Guam

Whenever you get to a new spot you always wonder where to eat.  If you are on a budget every dollar counts so you sometimes you need to eat cheap but other times you want to splurge, but make it count!  Here we went through some of the best places to eat in Guam, for cheap, mid-range, breakfast, places with a great view, and fine dining so that you can have a range based on your budget.

Cheap but yummy eating

Wednesday Night Market ($) Every Wednesday night locals and tourists alike come together at the Chamorro village.  From 5:30 pm to 9:30 pm come enjoy inexpensive authentic Chamorro dishes, from $1 for a chicken or pork BBQ stick, $2 for banana lumpia (banana eggrolls drizzled in honey), and if you’re still hungry, plates of food vary from $5-9.  You can also enjoy several cultural dance areas and live music.  There are many vendors selling low priced souvenirs as well.  Bring cash because most of the stands are cash only.

Meskla Dos ($) For some casual dining of gourmet hamburgers, sandwiches, and local style BBQ plates, Meskla Dos is your best bet.  Prices ranging from $9 to $16 dollars, which is the hamburger that covers an entire plate! They also have a signature BBQ with our house-made shakes, traditional floats, and a selection of cold beer by the bottle.

Somewhere in the Middle
