In the last couple of years, Lençóis Maranhenses has gained more and more Brazilian attention and many new trendy bars and restaurants have opened there.
We’ve listed the ones we like best in Atins and Santo Amaro.
Bars on Atins beach
Lar Doce Mar (@lardocemar)
The trendiest bar/restaurant in Canto do Atins.
For those who want a buzz, beautiful people, good drinks and a DJ on the beach, just like at a party.
Arrive early if you want to get a table to watch the (wonderful) sunset.
In addition to the drinks, you can enjoy appetizers and main dishes from the house. 
Bar.Co(@barcoatins)
The name lives up to the bar, built in an old boat structure.
It also gets very lively in the late afternoon and extends into the evening, with live music in a more reggae beach atmosphere. 
Restaurants in Atins
Pininga(@pininga_restaurant)
Pininga is not just a restaurant, it’s a gastronomic experience!
Intimate and eco-conscious, the establishment is one of the newest in Atins and has already won the hearts of everyone who stops by.
They only use local ingredients and the menu is always changing according to the food available in season.
The environment is 100% sustainable and cozy.
Live music and artistic interventions are also constant to further enhance the experience.
It’s best to make a reservation (you can find the link on instagram ) before your trip, as the restaurant has few tables and a lot of demand! 
La Pizza
A 100% Neapolitan pizzeria in the middle of Maranhão.
The restaurant was one of the first to be established in Atins by Italian citizens who fell in love with our Lençóis.
The atmosphere is very pleasant, in the garden of the Pousada Maresia.
Try the house-cured cachaças too! 
Urra Beer(@urrabeeratins)
In the center of Atins, you’ll find Urra, the brewery owned by a São Paulo native who got tired of São Paulo.
The IPA is delicious and so is the food to go with it!
The combo of cold beer + burger and fries is guaranteed here.
The atmosphere is very pleasant, with tables on the street.
Restaurante da Sessé (@restaurante_da_sesse)
Famous for serving a wonderful shrimp risotto with pineapple. My mouth watered just thinking about it. The restaurant is simple but comforting, run by chef Serliene. 
Cabana do Peixe
Caburé beach
The Cabana do Peixe restaurant is located at the mouth of the Preguiças River.
You can only get there by boat, so people usually stop there when they’re already on their river trip.
Right on the sand, beach hut style, with delicious food!
During the high season it can get very crowded with tours from Barreirinhas.
The service is fast, the beer cold and the fish very fresh.
This conversation has made me insanely hungry!
Let us know what you think of this selection.
