Where to Eat in Drake Bay: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Legend has it that notorious pirate Sir Francis Drake hid his treasures somewhere in Drake Bay, hence the name. Doubloons or not, there are plenty of natural treasures to marvel over, like lush rainforests and colorful sea life. Invest in a guided hiking, diving, fishing, tubing or treetop canopy tour to get the full Drake Bay experience. “Tracie the Bug Lady” even offers a night tour to acquaint you with all of the local creepy crawlies.

We had lunch here while in Drake Bay. Fried chicken casados with passion fruit and guanabana batidos for dessert. The food was tasty, the prices were good, and the view from the main level was nice.
2. Gringo Curt's Seafood & Vistor Center
Overall Ratings
5 based on 507 reviews
Gringo Curt's Seafood & Visitor Center was established June 2010 and our menu has not changed to date. We have pride in our small menu because it assures that we can provide freshness throughout the year by purchasing fruits, vegetables and fresh fish, locally and daily. There are many benefits to having same day caught fish but one downside is that we cannot guarantee a time that we can open. If we have fish at 12pm, we open. Thank you for your consideration and look forward to your visit Pura Vida!

There were three plates we could choose. Two of them were to be shared with two persons. One of these was vegetarian. The portions are large and the fish was really good. Probably necessary to book one day in advance, especially in high season.We appreciate your kind words.

this is a large, multipurpose space which can be used for dances, meetings, etc., and is a bit underused as a restaurant. The disco adjoining can add a bit of noise.

One of the few liquor bars in quiet drakes bay. This place is filled with locals and tourist alike cooling off with some rum or other libation. This shady spot has 3 TVs making it a great spot for catching the game.

We went here twice during our week in Drake Bay. They have around 30 different smoothies (10ish milk based, and 20ish water based), and the 4 we had were excellent. We also stopped here for ice cream after Gringo Curt's, which was also very good. Highly recommended.

The patacones and black bean with cheese starter are so good I had them three days straight. They are that good.
Red snapper is amazing along with the choice of wines.
It’s a great place to eat and chill out. Would recommend booking as it can be busy.
Ate there three times and would say fish meals are best, had spaghetti which was OK but would stick with fish next time as it’s so good.

Probably one of the best chicken burrito in my life ! We were there twice during our stay in Bahia Drake and I was actually quite surprised how such a remote place in Costa Rica can host a restaurant with such fresh and delicious food !
You can see the chef outside, cooking your meat or fish on the grill. You have a lot of choices (food and drink). The service was always fast and really friendly. I definitely recommend this place.
Also, they accept credit card, which can be really important when you start running out of cash money in Bahia Drake !!!

We are a restaurant located on the beach front of Drake Bay. We offer a variety of delicious natural, organic, vegetarian and/or meat dishes. Come by Wednesdays and Fridays to experience yoga and meditation classes, open to the public. On Saturdays we offer dance classes. Wanting a private sesión? Call us to make an early reservation!

The restaurant is just outside of town, along the walking path that heads west towards the parks. We had a complementary gazpacho to start, seared tuna and a chicken with passion fruit and mango sauce. Best meal we had in Drake Bay!. For the most part, Drake Bay restaurants offer the same menu. The chef is notable for offering some different and more modern fare. She speaks English well and can offer recommendations as (at time of writing) there was no written menu. Another bonus point, the restaurant is on the walking trail and thus you don't get a good dose of dust in your food as you do in many restaurants in Drake Bay.
