Nosara Bagel House has much more than just bagels BUT I moved here from NYC so to find a bagel (and a really good one, at that) in the jungle is a godsend.

Robin's Cafe
Breakfast and Coffee
Marlin Bills
A favorite of both locals and visitors. Hearty portions of home-cooked food against a Pacific sunset backdrop. Think “Cheers in the jungle”.
El Manglar
Entirely run by a cooperative of women from Nosara, El Manglar, is an organic farm-to- table restaurant, that serves typical Guanacaste-style cooking, fresh seafood, creative vegetarian plates, with herbs and vegetables picked from the garden, family style BBQ’s, Costa Rican craft beer, spirits, and wine. Enter through the Olas Verdes Hotel and sit outdoors on the edge of the reserve, while you listen to the sounds of birds, monkeys, and ocean waves.
Pura Pizza
A pizza nirvana. Authentic Italian pizza by the slice, lovingly dished up by true masters of their trade.
10 Pie
As in “10 ft high" not “apple or blueberry pie”. Very friendly Costa Rican owners, super fresh fish dishes: fish & chips, fish tacos, and the Hawaiian Poke Bowl is a favorite! Then there’s quesadillas, salads, berry smoothies, and great craft beer! Not to mention the unique feature: fun swings for family and friends to relax in.
Kaya Sol
Whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner Kaya Sol serves up a plethora of fantastic, tasty dishes. Awesome staff and great atmosphere.
Go Joice

Gabi's Play
A multifaceted, low-key commercial center, where you can find several different restaurants and food options, a jungle gym for children, the Nosara Kid’s Camp office, and the only laundromat in town. Recommended for an authentic Costa Rican “casado” (rice, beans, meat/fish/poultry, salad, etc.) at Soda La Barra, fresh sushi at Sushi Mar, homemade fast food at Pepe’s, frozen yogurt, and an organic grass-fed butcher and deli, too!
