We like to drink good beer. We make beer because beer is good, and we believe good beer is better. With all the things one could say about Costa Rica we felt it necessary to add great local brews to the experience. With an eye towards quality ingredients and a carefully controlled process, we find inspiration in the character of the tropical fruits found nearby and the flavors that make this area so special. Cerveceria Independiente is the first brewery of it’s kind in the seaside town of Potrero.

Potrero Grill bar and restaurant is a family oriented, quaint restaurant with friendly, personable staff and great food. The steaks and pizza are becoming more and more famous for the best in the area.
Agua y Sal creates delicious traditional Costa Rican baked goods, with a decidedly North American twist. On any day, you may find warm empanadas & enchiladas sharing a space with rosemary & tomato quiche and pecan pie. Non-traditional breakfast items like cinnamon raisin french toast with bacon can be found on the menu next to typical Taco fare like gallo pinto. If you are far from home, a familiar brownie may be just the thing to cheer you up. Of course, no breakfast would be complete without a great cup of coffee and Agua y Sal make it to order, so you can get your favorite latte, cappuccino, Americano or iced frappuccino to cool you down when temperatures soar.
