Organic First Grocery
Finding organic and wholesome foods can be challenging in Costa Rica. It is especially important because of the prolific use of Round-up and other harmful pesticides, banned in many countries. That is why we go out of our way to source products from certified organic farmers and food producers, and where this is not possible, from producers that have been committed to not using pesticides.
Organic Restaurant
Lead by our experienced chef Alonso, from Guanacaste, our fully licensed restaurant offers a wide selection of casual fare, pizzas with organic kamut or fresh organic yuca crust, burgers, sandwiches, vegan delights, seafood, and organic-fed, free-range chicken. We offer a selection of organic wine, artisan beer and hard kombucha on tap.
