Selva Orgánica Café y EcoMercado
About
Selva Orgánica Café y EcoMercado, on Costa Rica, sits at Local Rojo 75 metros de Escuela de Platanillo, Platanillo de Baru, in San José Province's Pérez Zeledón canton. First-time visitors should expect a combined café and market format, where coffee is served alongside organic produce and pantry goods. The setting is rural rather than urban, and the pace matches it.
A rating of 4.6 out of 5, drawn from 97 reviews, reflects a solid and sustained following. The venue's position in the Pérez Zeledón area places it south of San José, on the route that leads toward the country's southern Pacific coast. Platanillo de Baru is a small community, so arrivals are usually by car.
The local red building, marked by the 75 metros de Escuela de Platanillo reference, is the landmark to give a driver. The café and market share the same address, so a single stop covers both.
Costa Rica's Pacific coast has a marked dry season, while the Caribbean side stays wet for much of the year, which shapes when a visit is most comfortable. Ferries cross the Gulf of Nicoya to the Nicoya Peninsula, and small aircraft serve coastal destinations for those continuing south. Green and leatherback turtles nest on the Caribbean beaches, and olive ridleys arrive at Ostional in mass nestings.
