Named after the Spanish word for “cherry,” Kafé Cereza in Santa Ana, southwest of San José, displays a juicy-looking specimen of that fruit on its logo. Why a cherry? It’s certainly not a native fruit. The menu, all in Spanish, tells a concise history of coffee and how the beans, known as cerezas, aroused excitement and energy in the goats that ate them. If this is the stimulant you are looking for, you’ll have no problem at Kafé Cereza. The menu offers 14 choices of excellent coffee (₡800-2,000/$1.60-4), in addition to lunch and dinner options.
Price $1.00
