Mundoloco El Chante: what do users think?
Joshua Sandi: Nice place to have a good pizza and catch some nice live music down in San Pedro. Recommended.
Natalia Gómez: I've been here a couple of times, and I really like it. The staff is friendly, food is great and they have a good selection of drinks. Sometimes the service is a bit slow.
Ruben Vargas: All kinds of music, nice food and helpful staff. You must try their caribbean rice and beans!Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Robin Rae Swanson: This was my 4th visit to Mundoloco. Food is great! They have a wide variety of foods. Drinks are very good too! I would have taken a photo, but I was very hungry and the food was so delicious... so I missed the photo. *Update: I went to Mundoloco again... this time I got a photo. This is the falafel veggie burger with hummus!
David Cedeño: Nice place to enjoy good Costa rican musicians, the menu has lots of vegetarians options, some of them can go vegan.
Michael Ferris: This place is warm and comfortable. There was a wonderful musical showcase that night. Live entertainment, great table service, good drinks. It doesn't get any better than Mundoloco.
Allan Solís Solís: Nice place and excellent music no parking... Service little slow and the food is not to good. Nice bathrooms
Christopher Tarango: This place is sooooo good. Each time I visit I try a new dish and its even better than the last. SO delicious! The giant burger, the rice and beans, the ceviche, the stuffed mushrooms.. im getting hungry!
Alex Fernández: Extremely poor service, staff is not organized, they don't keep control of the orders, you can clearly listen to them arguing about bills and orders in front of you, making you feel uncomfortable... To make it worse, the person in charge (either the owner or the manager on duty) is an old guy that has zero sense of Customer Service, they blame everything on the client and has a really rude tone and attitude with clients. Food takes forever, they say it is because it is fresh food, but, do you really take 1 hour and a half to prepare some fish and chips??? When I ask for my food, they really don't care, they get pissed, maybe they are too busy to not notice that its been more than 1 hour since I order fish and chips... It's been the worst experience ever....
Sergio Ortiz: Very good prices, Cold beer, good quality food and good portions. Good music. Some times they even have live shows of music inside. Mundo Loco in San Pedro And at front of mundo Loco they have Domuncolo that is a coffee shop. Awesome food also and sweeties, smoothies. Mundo Loco & Domuncolo Go take a look

Jazz Café: what do users think?
Jose Pablo Monge: This is always the Go to Place for live shows in Costa Rica. I just wish food was a little better. Is not bad in any way but I just wish it was better. Probably good for snacks but not for a dinner with live music. Overall a great place. Keep in mind that if there is a big event, you will have to park on a lot near by. So make sure to bring cash.
Don Raja Elvis: Superb Place...Good Service and High Class Live Music...Bands from all over the world are playing here! Apart from that acoustic in the hall is excellent...and this so called Café is a concert hall which is decorated and built in very special way!

If you want information about our agenda of special events, contact us via WhatsApp number 8429-1818 Best regards! Jazz Cafe Escazu
Jose Carranza: Best venue for live music in Costa Rica, food is too expensive and not good enough though.
Yader Wizard: Excellent show, good place, great place to enjoy...
Roberto Truque: One of the few great live performance bars in Costa Rica. It has a three story structure that looks down on a simple central stage. Food isn’t that great. Also, parking spaces are quite limited and chances are you will have to end up street parking.
Manuel Rios: A great place in San Jose, Costa Rica to listen live music 🎶
Andrés Avila: Horrible place, super expensive, food was okish but too small a portion, a couple of seats were open and me and my friend went over, we were told off by one of the staff, probably saving seats for their friends, overall 1/10, never going back
Terence Madigan: My 1st time back to the Jazz Café, Escazu, in over a year and it was great. We saw a Pink Floyd tribute band, they were awesome. A few of us had the chicken wings, they were overcooked but okay.
Clay Akins: Overall great atmosphere. Sound quality was top notch and the band they had performing kept the crowd entertained with great worship music.The lighting was dark but very aesthetic. I had the mozzarella sticks and they were decent.
Kevin “Blank” Jimenez: Great ambiance, food is good. The live show depends a lot on who is playing.

Antik Restaurant + Bar: what do users think?
Matthias Klausing: I liked the atmosphere. Very welcoming place when I went there. If course you should keep your belongings close to you, because there are a lot of people. Top floor was Reggaeton, in the basement Techno. There is a nice terrace to cool down.
Ian Ondoy Quirós: IMO, the best option for a wild and fun night out with friends. Location is good in the downtown of San Jose, a small shop at the front and the inside of the club it's just beautiful. There's two themes: Underground more of Techno/Raves and at the top floor with Latino beats.
Juan Vasquez: Of all the clubs and bars in San Jose. Antik is the one i most frequent. Great atmosphere, regaeton up stairs Lounge in the middle floor to cool off, and techno all night long until 6 am downstairs. I freaking love this place Must have went atleast 40 times this year or more.
Merlina Padma: Really nice and very secure place! A beer could be between $4 to $3. Bathrooms are clean, and the events are totally awesome :)
Caro Rodriguez: Great party ambient, either latin with reggeaton and dem bow or electronic music, always a good selection of DJs to turn up the audience and sync in great energy.
Fernando Barboza: Solid club. Two dance rooms featuring different music one upstairs and one in the basement level. Beautiful building. Clean facilities
Federico Rivera: Came here for a private party with no expectations. Ended up having a nice party!
Diego mora: Very nice place, they have all this different parts to the bar and constant weekly activities which makes for a great place to go too, depending on what you want they normally have about 3 different sections of the venue you can hangout at. Like any big club the security guards are not the nicest and there's a constant wait time when you ask for a drink. Leaving this aside it's nice place to go and get your party going!!!
Paula Merben: Excellent!! Great place, good music and a lot of fun
Fernanda Cubero: Best place in SJ town to enjoy good food & music

Vitaly Sklar: Good times. Rock and roll.
Kelly Allison: Great bartender veronica
Response: Thanks Kelly!
Philip Clarke: My wife and I went to this bar for live music on a Wednesday evening. Live music started after 10 pm, with a ten piece Latin band called Son Mayor. I have to say that the band were absolutely fantastic, with a wide range of Son, Salsa, Merengue, and Bachata. We spent a truly memorable night of great music. The staff in Key Largo are very friendly. However, just be aware that there are a lot of working girls.

Wilkcr: what do users think?
Tom Bombadill: What a confusing disappointment... Firstly, the beer is incredible. The tropical IPA is a must as well as the hibiscus beer (flowers of Jamaica) This must be said and the brewery itself must be complemented. Everything else though was just a let down. After driving 4 hours in the day to get back to San Jose I was looking forward to visiting Wilk after a friend's recommendation of the beer. But we walk in tired and hungry and get blasted by club music, to the level of not being able to talk to the waiter properly without raising your voice. 8pm Sunday and it was like being out on a Saturday night. So we took a table outside around the corner and then the waiter just ignored us because we said the music was too loud to sit down and have dinner with. Had to go and get my own menus and then had to go to be bar to ask for service after 10 minutes of sitting and waiting. Foodwise, the sweet potato chips and the onion rings with the sauces are amazing. Really crispy and well seasoned. The burgers though are absolutely rubbish, look at my photos. The meat was dry and tasted like nothing and my girlfriends Portobello burger was covered in way to much garlic aioli that she had to scrape off. I wish this place was better but the service was terrible, only from one big dude, the guy at the bar was good. He just made us feel so unwelcome from the moment we said the music was a bit too loud. In summary, if you want happiness, get the beer here takeaway and then go to Apotecario for burgers.
Jessica Bland: We came a bit earlier in the day after they’d opened to sample some of the craft brews! They had a great local selection, and reminded us a lot of our local taproom at home in Denver. Bar staff was great! We also had a burger and tenders, and were pretty happy with the food choices. We’d definitely come again!
Love Jones: My "traveling cube" and I enjoyed a fun night out on my last day in San Jose, Costa Rica. Our hostel buddies wanted a place to drink, so the flight of beer was less than $8 and gave us the option to try a variety of local, imported, and artisan cervezas. It was more than enough for a light-weight, such as myself, to leave feeling satisfied and giggly. The service was fast and friendly and suggested options based on my taste preferences. I don't remember if I ate here 🤔 I think I did but my batttery died so I don't have the photos of the food, so... no comment yet. Everything else was awesome, and the 80s/90s American music was fantastic. It's in a trendy area, but don't let that intimidate you, the dress code was casual and the vibe super-comfortable. A must-taste on your itinerary; almost like a chic Taco Mac or Buffalo Wild Wings... great for groups, date night, or solo travelers. #lovejonezin
Nathan Yagi-Stanton: Excellent selection of beers, they even brew their own. The best way to try a bunch is to order a beer flight. Good bar food options at reasonable prices and amazing mural art work throughout.
Steven: The vibes in this place are fantasticThis has a Prague 17th century vibe, you feel like you are drinking a lovely variety of local Costa Rican craft beer in a wine cellar, much is gracias
Joshua Harris: Terrible service. Our server never checked up on us. I wanted another drink and wife needed to go up to the bar to order it. We also wanted more food after our appetizers, but again, waitress never showed up to ask if we wanted something else or more drinks. You lost a bunch of money in food and drinks because of the terrible service not asking if we wanted something else. Decent beer selection that you can't find anywhere else. Food was decent also.
Louis Clément: Wilk Craft Beer has some very decent beers. Good imports and even better local crafts ans house crafts. I met Daniel the brewer and he's very knowledgeable and passionate. The place is rather young in their history (<2 years) but they've already won awards. Loved their candy Brown IPA.
Jim Platner: Tasty in house brewed beers and good pizza! Great service, cool atmosphere.
Justin Schmid: This is by far my favorite craft beer bar that we've found in San Jose. The tap list is extensive and weighted heavily toward regional craft labels. It also encompasses a wide variety of styles from stout to mead. The tacos are also delicious, and they play a decent variety of music at a low enough volume to allow you to chat with your drinking companions. And hey, there's a place to grab ice cream next door. A perfect place for craft beer!
Stephen Cortes: We came here for drinks after dinner here in the Escalante neighborhood. Great drinks and super friendly staff. We watched an NBA game here and is probably the best place we have found for watching sports. It appeared that a lot of locals frequent here. We went back on another night and it was just as much fun. We did not try the food, but I would like to the next time I’m in town because it looked and smelled delicious

Jeff Barrett: I stopped by this place Sept. 2018. Actually it was Costa Rica Independence day......Very welcoming to tourists, locals and expats. Cheap beer, good prices, kinda of a local dive bar vibe, but felt safe and welcomed. Will Return!!
Tony Baker: Great food and great prices! This place gets people visiting from all over the world, especially from Canada and the U.S. It's popular with Ticos and Ticas as well. It's a nice clean place and some nights it's standing room only, even when all of the nearby places are practically empty. I visit here on every visit through San Jose.
Kat M: Amazing local bar friendly for tourists, I had so much fun! Cool music selection (I mean 60-90s hits appeal to me way more than latino style so I was delighted). Beer is cheap, bar food nice, you can watch street views/ sport channels/ music videos pick up your fav! Stuff is lovely, I felt very welcomed at 1st night and warmly greeted next day that I stepped in again :) oh man I love Pura Vida ♡
Michael Irvine: Best bar in San Jose! Great atmos, lovely bunch of people
Andy Krull: Food is pretty good for cheaper price point. Beers are cheap. Atmosphere is lively. It's a bit loud if you are just meeting friends for dinner but besides that not a bad place at all.
Dalila Aguilar: Awesome bar! Not very touristy late at night, so I loved it! the bar tender was great, very nice & fast.
Nigel Jones-Morris: Covid rules were respected, very good service, I would have rated them higher if there was a larger selection of beers.
Micheal Murphy: Great small place to be. Has a local Tico vibe even though many Americans go there.
Tim Wojeski: The Malibu is a great neighborhood bar that reminds you of the places back home. Good food, good music, and friendly people. A nice place to relax with some old friends or meet new ones. Two for one drinks start in the early afternoon and the chef offers an excellent "plato del dia" if you want a bite to eat. Just a 5 minute walk from the Holiday Inn.
Rich Knopp: I love this place !!! Great mix of people and cultures. Always good food, reasonable prices, and the best looking ladies in San Jose...I miss it a lot, and can't wait to get back !!!

Tom Bombadill: The burgers and beers here are the best thing that can happen to you in San Jose. Such an incredible experience I wish I could get a flight back and go again! The meat is more tender the voice of Frank Sinatra who serenades you gently in the background of the restaurant. My girlfriend got the falafel salad and it was fresh and perfectly seasoned. Everything handmade. They even have local sour beers that are top quality. Incredible service.
Alondra Espino: We had a great time at this place. Came for a late breakfast and it was delicious. The place is large and beautiful. We came on a Tuesday and it was empty. Staff was friendly. Mimosas were so good. Highly recommend
Anny: Been here twice already in one week. Had The vegetarian burger, Mediterranean sandwich, and honey kombucha. All super delicious and healthy ingredients. Great service and great vibe. Funky decors too. Happy new year everyone!
Sarah Spinelli: Absolutely wonderful experience. The atmosphere is charming with some true apothecary roots and vibe. There are plants hanging from the ceiling in the skylights, the bar is always busy, and the food is incredible. The jazz music playing over the speakers is perfection and really goes with the ambiance. Such a lovely Saturday night experience! If you enjoy adult beverages, get the Penicilina and get your camera ready. Won’t spoil the surprise, but that’s really neat. Go eat and drink here - you won’t regret it.
Luis Diego Pacheco: Great place for a lovely evening!The food is delicious, the service is friendly and the prices are fair.Fully recommended! 😋
Natalia Gómez: Food here is amazing, fast service. Coffee is delicious and staff is very friendly. I am definitely coming back!
Mackenzie Trice: Absolutely fantastic Cocktails and food! Our waiter was great and gave us great drink recommendations with our food.
Shelby Roquemore: We love this place! They are pet friendly, drinks are wonderful, food is great, atmosphere on point, but their biggest asset is their waitstaff! Bryan is so kind, knowledgeable, and funny. This is one of my favorite places in all of Costa Rica!
Jenia Cheng: We ordered a matcha latte and passion fruit cheesecake. The matcha latte was sweet and bitter just the flavor you would expect from matcha latte, cheesecake was light, sour and sweet with a nice consistency. The service was good, the waiters are attentive, always serving us water whenever we ran short of it. We still have to try their brunch and more options from their menu. Prices are just the average prices you will expect to find in Barrio Escalante.
Amanda Amador-Prache: The food was really good. They've got vegetarian options, meat, fish, chicken.. The drinks were also amazing. Eat inside the patio If there's space, it's really nice there. The prices are high but the quality of the food is really good compared to other places in that neighborhood. 100% recommend.

Aris Alexandra - Wise Wellness Co.: I love this place! It’s not only in a super cute and modern food park but the food and smoothies here are delicious! Great quality and healthy options! Also love that they have Cider options for drinks since I have to eat gluten free. I’ll definitely be coming back here next time I’m in San Jose!
Fernando Gutierrez: Last Friday I bought two drinks on promotion, when doing so the person told me that they would be at the same price until 08:00 pm, however, when I returned to buy again before the indicated time (at 07:55 pm), the man did not He wanted to sell them to me at the same price because "on his watch" I had passed the time, after showing him what the correct time was from my cell phone (which is always the correct time because it is impossible to adjust), he did not want to accept his mistake and continued trying to sell me the drink at a higher price to which I refused, for having wanted to steal from me in front of my own eyes and by wanting to do so not realizing that he was not only losing a sale, but also a client who always bought there, they will never receive a five from me again, be careful so that they do not try to do the same to you!!!.
Jose Manuel Cabral (Pepe): The food is good, but the speed of service has a lot to improve. Waiting times of over an hour to serve a cold sandwich are not normal. In my case it was 70 minutes. They are very friendly and the food may be worth it, but I recommend avoiding coming to this place on days when they are busy.
Pablo Barreno: I really liked the variety, flavor and quality, I recommend the Hijo E' Fruta drink and eating Homerus Hummus.
Alejandro Quesada: Terrible customer service! I waited too long for a smoothie at this place and instead of apologizing they talk back to me. The smoothie wasn't even cold.
Response: Hello Alejandro, our apologies for the inconvenience suffered, this weekend there was a very high volume of people for the Transitarte Festival and hence the delay. Whenever you like, you can come back, and we will invite you to another drink of your choice.
Jorge Villafranca: very good service they treated me the most excellent food very good ceviche
Daniel Castro: It's refreshing to eat in places like this. Everything always tastes good

Tan Bass: Very hip spot in San Jose. Live music venue with the koolest decor and a proper restaurant.
Gio Traveling the World: I love this place. Take a break from your day and go to El Sotano. Grab a drink and listen to some amazing music or take a dance class. There are all kinds of activities happening every day of the week, so don't forget to check out the board for the event calendar. I really like that is an old house converted into this really arty and cozy Lounge/Cafe. So don't wait and check it out!
J.A. Strub: A second home for lots of great local musicians that became a second home for this traveling musician. After my third or fourth visit I felt like family. Cool repurchased old house with a bohemian feel. Quiet but comfortable on weeknights with a blues jam on Monday and a jazz jam on Tuesday. When a scheduled act plays it's usually overflowing. They get remarkably good global artists considering its size. Food is cheap and beer is fairly priced. Say hi to Jorge for me.
Alonso Nunez: This is a small pub located in the heart of San Jose its a bit small but very cozy place they serve all kinds of local brew and commercial beer. Be careful and don't walk alone to it too late, best to take a Taxi cab or a UBER. This place is known for alternative culture. Tends to have many local bands and solo artist play at its venue. If your like me and like to get to know new music while having a beer and eating good food this might be a fun place for you. Parking is a bit difficult best to come by foot, Taxi or UBER. But you might get lucky and find a good spot in front on the side of the road. Cool small place good for date too.
Luis Prieto: Except for the fact that at the time my friend and I arrived at the place near 11:45, we heared the last 2 or 3 songs of Strictry Vinyl. That just 2 or 3 songs sounded incredibly amazing! We thought that it'd be at the basement but it was very good! The next day is holiday. Beer 1500 col
William Ramirez: Excellent music, super cool jams, great cozy environment. Go on Mondays.
Terence Madigan: We like to go on Monday nights when they have a Blues Band downstairs. New to me is that they invite musicians to play with them, one at a time, for two songs.
Alonso Guerrero: Nice place to chill, needs more places to sit. Perfect for small music activities. No parking.
Angel Ivanov: A very nice place with live music, great events and workshops. Offers a very good set of craft beers.
Luis Alamilla: Great little place... Convinient for the younger crowed especially if you like rock music

Christopher McKinnon: Cute little restaurant with very friendly staff and very reasonable prices. I had the plata del dia and it was delicious! Highly recommend.

Hugo Quesada: Good food, affordable prices, excellent service, very relaxing
Esteban Masís: LOUD ATTENTION! They offered us something to drink up to 15 minutes after arriving. When we asked for the drinks the owner forgot we asked for a Canada Dry and he asked us twice. They had no beef or chicken. They offered fish fingers which they brought 45 minutes later. We called a waiter and he arrived 30 minutes later (when he had already "taken care of the owner"). Nobody ever apologized. They came out with the story that they had been full but the place did not look that way.
Javier Rojas: We arrived and they told us that the bucket was worth 7,000 and when we took it they said that this price was in cash and since it was with a card, it cost 8,400.
Iván Gómez (Químico): Very rich.
Mayte Chaves: very nice atmosphere
Mariano Araya Salas: strawberry

El Social: what do users think?
Steve McIntosh: I'd say the best cocktail I had in Costa Rica. Super friendly staff, nice menu, good selection of drinks, and fun atmosphere. Slightly higher prices than other places but the drink quality is definitely far better. There are cheaper places around if you just want a beer.
A B: Randomly stopped by to grab a drink in the rain with no expectations, turned out to be the best spot for cocktails and craft beer. Even got a complimentary shot on the house. Hip atmosphere, great service, definitely recommend to stop here for their specialty cocktails.
C L: Waited over 35 minutes for somebody to take my drink order. They simply didn’t seem to care that I was there. Never actually received a drink. They took my friends drink order when we came in and sat down and then just walked away. There were three employees standing around the computer the entire time we were there. No service whatsoever. Definitely will be spending my money someplace where people care . On the flip side, great ambiance and decor. Too bad nobody wants to work.
Response: Hello. Thank you for your feedback. When this happened?
D Bo: Without a doubt, some of the best drinks I’ve ever had! The Tamarindo with the freshly smoked rosemary was simply outstanding!!
Melinna Barrantes: Customer Service can improve but it's awesome they're receiving people even in Covid-19 situation. Not a lot of options though but great to find a place to get a beer Good space, music, soap and prices
William Clearlake: A great place for cocktails and conversation. Great specialty cocktails, yummy food, friendly staff. The music isn't too loud. Even with my limited Spanish, I feel at home there. Oooh! Peanuts!
Rachael Decker: This place is perfect! Fun music, awesome drinks, and great prices! Came here for a late night bite and drink. We enjoyed the atmosphere on the edge of a beautiful the park. Bartender was super friendly and everyone was super nice!

Craic Irish Pub: what do users think?
Javier Segura: Very open and with good air place, the menu is fine because you have options for diferent budgets.Really liked the hamburgers.
Nathan Yagi-Stanton: We came in for St. Patrick’s Day and even though the place was absolutely packed they were still extremely efficient at serving everyone and keeping the place clean! We ordered some chips for a snack with our beers and they were somehow able to find us in the thick crowd and served us hot, filling potato wedges with a delicious curry ketchup. We saw a number of burgers come out of the kitchen that looked incredible. Will have to come back and try one!
Natalia Gómez: Nice place, what you imagine when you think of an Irish bar. The beer selection is good, local beer on tap and awesome bar food.Food: 5/5 | Service: 4/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Tom Hazeldine: One of the better Irish pubs I've been too on my travels. They didn't have any cider, which was odd, but we tried the fruit beer (see the photo) and it was excellent - essentially a berry cider but slightly less sweet. I also had a Vege Carribbean burger (the bean one - they have 3 Vege options!) which was very good. The service was friendly and they spoke good English, which spared them my very limited Spanish! We tried to go back the next night to watch Costa Rica Vs the US world cup qualifier (which was a big deal for Costa Rican football fans) and inexplicably it was shut. Hard to fathom given it was open the night before - a Tuesday.
Jan Peter Öhman: Tasty hamburger and lots of different craft beer on tap. Not many people. Low season and early night.Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 3/5 …More
Robin Canfield: Super tasty food. I got a veggie burger for my son (who's iffy on veggie burgers) and he ate most of it before he was too full to continue. I got a portabello burger Italian style and it was absolutely delicious. The only drawback was having to order delivery from two doors down the street. I was stuck in my hotel with a hangry six year old who Craic patrons did nothing to deserve being subjected to. On UberEats, Craic wouldn't let me select to Pick Up my order which I could have at least managed. So instead I had to flag down the delivery driver as he began to start his motorbike, to have him walk down the street and hand off my food.
Joan Saborio: Nice pub, a great variety of craft beer and delicious food, good vibe, very good service and it's spacious, with space indoors and out doors.
John O'Donnell: Excellent service and atmosphere. Great beer and burgers.Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
Isaac Salas: Great food, wings are really good order them with extra sauce, fair prices and great service
Robert Kaelin: It's about BEER! Cool place with a huge selection of tab beers.
