About

Carnicería y Chicharronera Fernández, on Costa Rica, sits 160mts este de la iglesia católica los angeles in Canoas, Alajuela.

Visitors can expect a local stop in the Canoas area rather than a resort-side venue. A 4.8 out of 5 average across 55 reviews gives the venue a strong record among its customers. San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all sit within reach, with Alajuela positioned close to the capital and its airport corridor.

Costa Rica drives on the right, and intercity buses are the main form of public transport, so reaching Canoas from San José is straightforward by road.

Spanish is the official language, and the phrase pura vida is used widely in everyday speech. A casado — a set lunch of rice, beans, plantain, salad and a choice of meat or fish — is a reliable midday meal in this part of the country.
