This tropical garden, lush with greenery, is one of the city’s more pleasant places for a drink. There's also sports and music videos on the big screen, but the volume is usually turned down so patrons can enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. The menu offers very tasty pub grub and Tico fare (shared appetizers US$10).
