Guacamole Grill

Gate-side Guacamole Grill is one of CZM’s few hot-meal options

Guacamole Grill sits airside in Cozumel International Airport, past security near the main departure gates, so you can stay close to boarding while you eat. It’s a basic sit-down setup with table service plus bar seating, so you’re not stuck juggling a plate at the gate. Menus skew toward tourist-friendly Mexican: think nachos, tacos, fajitas, and of course guacamole in large shareable portions.

Expect airport pricing: most mains at Guacamole Grill land in the MX$200–MX$350 range, with snacks and sides a bit lower. Beer and simple mixed drinks usually run around MX$90–MX$150, which is standard for CZM. Credit cards are accepted and bills come in pesos, so check the conversion if you’re paying with a foreign card. Service pace is variable; build in at least 45 minutes if you want a full meal and a drink before boarding.

The menu leans heavy on fried bar food, but the namesake guacamole is the safest bet and easy to share at the table. Tacos and fajitas are straightforward and usually arrive faster than burgers or anything that sounds complicated. Portions are generous enough that two people can split a starter and one main and still walk away full, which helps soften the airport markup a bit.

Guacamole Grill opens for the morning bank of departures and usually keeps serving until the last afternoon and early evening flights clear, roughly aligning with CZM’s 7:00–19:00 peak window. If you’re on one of the first flights of the day, you’ll likely find it already running; late-night options in this terminal are thin, so don’t bank on a full menu after the final scheduled departures.

Tip: Order and pay in one go if your flight boards within 30–40 minutes; ask the server upfront for the check with your food so you’re not stuck waiting while your zone is on final call.
