Castro's

If you really want to dance in San Jose, Castro's is the place. The music ranges from salsa to reggaeton to electronic trance selections, though it's always upbeat and focuses on Latin music and moves. Castro's is not a fancy place, but dressing up is not uncommon and flip flops won't make it past the doorman. True to its traditional roots when Costa Rican dads and grandads used to come to the capital city to dance, Castro's still offers little snacks, called bocas, with drinks. Daily drink discounts and special promotions make Castro's a long-standing favorite with locals and tourists.
