El Fogón
About
El Fogón in Costa Rica sits on an unnamed road in Atenas, Provincia de Alajuela, within easy reach of San José and the coffee towns of the central valley.
A 4.7 out of 5 average across 312 reviews marks it out among the country's many places to eat, and the Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/El-Fogon-Campesino-100063543941757/ carries its updates. Cloud forest, rainforest and dry tropical forest all occur within a short drive of each other here.
First-time visitors to Atenas will find the town on the main route between San José and the Pacific coast, with Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde further afield. The Facebook page is the place to look for current arrangements.
Costa Rica's tropical climate splits into a dry season from December to April and a wet season from May to November, so the drier months suit long drives. Ferries cross the Gulf of Nicoya to the Nicoya Peninsula, and small aircraft serve coastal destinations for anyone heading onward.
