Explore La Marinita/amistad Sports Bar

Tucked inside La Marinita/amistad Sports Bar, this lively little spot brings together the warmth of a neighborhood hangout with the buzz of a true sports bar. Although the space itself is relatively small, it carries an energetic atmosphere that makes it feel much bigger, especially when multiple screens light up with just about any sport you could want to watch. Whether you're a traveler looking for a familiar game or simply someone who enjoys a casual, friendly vibe, this place delivers that welcoming experience right away.

One of the standout aspects here is the personality behind the bar. The owners are often praised for being genuinely friendly and attentive, creating a relaxed environment where guests feel looked after. One of them, Kevin, originally from Texas, is known for going the extra mile-not just with service, but also by offering helpful tips about local attractions and how to explore the city more effectively. That kind of hospitality adds an extra layer to the visit beyond just food and drinks.

Speaking of food, the menu has recently expanded, and it shows in both variety and quality. The kitchen turns out flavorful dishes prepared by skilled cooks, with burgers being a particular highlight-juicy, satisfying, and consistently well-made. The fries complement them nicely, while the wings offer something a bit different, featuring a unique, bold sauce rather than the typical Buffalo style. It’s the kind of menu that feels both comforting and slightly unexpected.

Drinks are another big draw, especially with the all-day happy hour that keeps things affordable and social. Deals like “buy two, get one free” make it easy to settle in, relax, and enjoy the lively surroundings without worrying about the bill.

I just found this place on my October trip. I usually get the two-burgers at the top of the menu. The place is around the corner from my favorite hotel. Hotel Santo Tomas. Tap the photo for the complete picture.

One of the owners is an American from Texas named Kevin. He was super helpful with the local attractions to see where to go and how to get the most out of your visit while you're here. It's a very small place but very energetic - and you can get ANY sport you want on their multiple TVs. Burgers are excellent, fries are pretty good. if you order the wings make sure that you know that they're not traditional Buffalo style. They come with a very flavorful sauce very reasonable prices- we will be back here!!!

This is a great restaurant serving Costa Rica cuisine at great price. If you want to eat outside your hotel, this is the place to go. The stir fried mixed vegetables dish is so delicious and healthy. The rice dishes (with shrimps or fish) are superb, which includes a red pinto bean side dish that goes very well with the rice. The ambience is so cozy and clean, probably due to the fact that the owner is an American who manages it everyday.
