Tampico's main cathedral, built in the late 19th century in the neoclassical style.

Cathedral of Tampico

One of the two colonial squares downtown, with nearby market, beautiful old cathedral, and very good shopping.

Plaza de Armas

A locally-famous chain. Order the breakfast tacos.

Tacos Ana

A buffet restaurant where you can drink a beer with a great view of the Plaza de la Libertad. However, service can be slow and the food... questionable.

Restaurante Don Churrasco

Another solid breakfast spot. Makes a decent burger later in the day.
