Julio's Churros (stand) — Restaurant in Jalisco

I made it a point this year to get to this churro stand as I found about it too late last year.

LOCATION: It's located at the corner of Aguacate & Lázaro Cárdenas right by the Iglesia de la Santa Cruz church (2019). No hours are posted but the 5pm start time is accurate. I assumed there'd be a long line and a quick sell out but I saw people carrying the goods well past 8:30pm and no line was there when we went.

THE STAND: It's a simple operation and they're made hot and fresh on the spot. A tripod holding up what looks like a big caulking gun is instead full of churro batter, aimed at a bubbling pot of oil. He squeezes them out one by one, cutting them with a swift swipe of a knife. They fry for just a few seconds before being dusted in cinnamon and sugar.

MENU: Churros!

FOOD: Churros What a deal! There's nothing like eating them hot. While super crunchy, they weren't thick enough to produce a moist interior which is what makes a churro even more delectable and a bit of a downfall for me. You get the taste of a churro but not the whole package.

SERVICE: Not friendly at all. I get it that some tourists can be annoying but he literally barked-back responses to simple questions about price to people before us, a total turn-off to me. Be appreciative that people patronize your biz and don't take them for granted!?

OVERALL: Not a repeat for me. I already know of a good spot for churros which I'll go back to next time and will continue exploring the area for...

After all the reviews and all the TikTok hype, I came to try these churros. They are okay. Quite mediocre really. I have had better churros from a Los Angeles churro stand.

That said they were still good, and really cheap. A full bag could quite feed 2-3 people.

Maybe it's because I was sober? Usually people who aren't sober find even the most basic of foods to "hit the spot" (I speak from experience). Try it for yourself, for a few pesos you could come to your...

It does exactly what it claims, perfectly!

The churros are great, price is perfect, and their small team is great!

As we had never been to PV before, we were a bit careful on our choices, to ensure we were able to try multiple places.

However, Julio’s was the only establishment in PV that we visited every night!

There are a bunch of great things to do around PV, but a quick, 10 Peso stop to grab some churros at...
