What restaurants will Cacau Park have?
Cacau Park will have many restaurants and food outlets across all five of its themed “worlds,” according to Brazilian travel site Melhores Destinos, which toured the construction site in August 2025.
In December 2024, Cacau Show founder Alê Costa promised food would get special attention: most parks don’t focus on it, he said, but Cacau Show would go the extra mile there. The company plans its own restaurant brands plus partners, and says it is talking to several chefs. Brazilian TV chef Henrique Fogaça attended the event where Costa said this, but no partnership has been officially announced.

City Walk: dining outside the ticket gates
The City Walk is an open-air boulevard with concept stores and themed restaurants — the Brazilian press compares it to Universal’s CityWalk in Orlando. Some of Cacau Park’s restaurants and snack bars will be there.
According to the August 2025 report, there will be two areas with 50 outlets each, from shops to food. They sit before the ticket gates and park entrance, so you can visit them without a park ticket.

Where will the chocolate tasting be?
In the Fábrica Show area, where a working chocolate factory is part of the visitor route, there will be free chocolate tasting, Alê Costa confirmed. The factory uses equipment imported from Denmark that can make 3 metric tons (about 6,600 lb) of chocolate per hour.
