🥘 Meals Meet Everyday Errands

Guatemalan home cooking meets the grocery run at La Chapincita I, a Brooklyn eatery at 1806 Bath Avenue. Spanish dishes sit alongside Guatemalan classics on the menu, giving you more than one cooking tradition to explore. Think of a meal here as part of a neighborhood stop.

The setup includes plastic utensils and no knives provided, a detail to keep in mind when choosing chunks of beef or pork. Diners often pick up the meat with their fingers. Approach the plate on those terms, with less cutting and more picking up the pieces as you eat.

The shop also serves as a pickup point for packages sent from Guatemala to Brooklyn. It opens daily from 6 AM to half past eleven PM. Bring the grocery list, make time for food, and combine the errands that already bring you to this Bath Avenue eatery.
