Pots & Bowls

Top choice in Península de Nicoya


If you love potted plants, and you love eating nutritious food out of a bowl, this is your dream stop in Playa Grande. Bowls are divided into sweet (acai, chia pudding, tropical spirulina) and salty (casados, cauliflower rice, tuna poke), and they pair exceedingly well with the cold-pressed juice and strong cups of coffee.

The adorable, roadside restaurant has a thatched roof above some outdoor picnic tables, and inside there's a store hawking household items, clothing and (of course) potted plants.
