Bar El Cruce, Tibás, Costa Rica

From the outside, El Cruce appears to be a classic hole in the wall.

On the inside, El Cruce is not much more fun than visiting terminally ill elders in the hospital.


Bar El Cruce in Tibás is one of those places we've driven past several times, always wondering what's inside, imagining the most deliciously horrid shithole of a bar, filled with the most depraved scum society can offer. So we were greatly disappointed when discovering that, despite its uninviting exterior, it's just a regular bar with no personality and no ambition. A few middle aged people, only half drunk, watching the news on one of the TV screens. No hysterical hookers stabbing customers, no shady business going on in dark corners. A terrible disappointment indeed.
