“Quietly located within a beautiful jungle-like locale, the staff, the food, the coffee, everything about this place is absolutely amazing. I do not have enough adjectives to describe this place. If you are in the Puerto Viejo area, this place is a must.”

“Such a great place, the standard for a truly good meal in a unique and welcoming setting. The food is mouthwatering and so perfectly prepared, but that’s just the beginning. It’s the go-to for multi tasking as you can get your laundry done, browse the library and enjoy the exotic experience of a semi open environment among the lush foliage and plants.”

“Café Rico is a charming coffee and breakfast shop surrounded by lush gardens in the heart of Puerto Viejo. Readers will appreciate the collection of books to exchange… The banana bread French toast served with sliced banana, a sprinkle of cinnamon and warm Canadian maple syrup is a masterpiece. Café Rico was one of the highlights of our visit to Puerto Viejo. Enjoy!”
