RESTAURANTS
The Café "El Cafetal de la luz", is the perfect spot for interesting encounters when you can sample exquisite liqueurs and have informal meals. The city of San Jose was peaceful and quiet at the turn of the last century. One day something happened that made it change forever: Light arrived. It happened on August 9th,1884; San Jose became the third city in the world and the first one in Latin America illuminated by electric energy, after New York and Paris.
The first electric plant was installed in the small and cozy Barrio Amon, in the midst of coffee plantations, next to the Rio Torres. This was a novelty that attracted both nationals and foreigners, who visited the place they called the "CAFETAL DE LA LUZ" (COFFEE PLANTATION OF LIGHT).
That CAFETAL DE LA LUZ, the historical place is the same place where you are sitting at this moment and is the reason we are so proud of having adopted this name. We are open until 2:00 AM, seven days a week and every Friday Live Music. Use our wireless Internet access to browse the web, and send instant messages to your friends.
