Bar El Parque

4.1(64 reviews)

About

For a bar or nightlife venue in Costa Rica, Bar El Parque carries a rating of 4.1 out of 5, a score that sits comfortably against other bars on the island.

A total of 64 reviews backs that figure, a modest but solid body of feedback for a bar in this part of the country. The venue can be found on Av. 31 in San José, within the Guadalupe district of Santa Cecilia, placing it in the Central Valley rather than on the coast. San José and Tamarindo are among the nearby places, though the capital location gives it a distinctly urban setting.

As a bar, Bar El Parque operates in the evening socialising mould, with drinks at the centre of what it offers.

Visitors heading into the Central Valley will find the altitude keeps things cooler than the Pacific coast, where the dry season runs in marked contrast to the wet Caribbean side. Spanish is the language here, and English is widely understood in the capital.
