Volcán Look
This club is reportedly Costa Rica’s biggest discotheque outside of San José. It’s about 5km west of town, though it’s virtually abandoned except on weekends and holidays: don’t bother showing up until after 11pm unless you want to dance cumbia alone.

Super Cristian 2
For groceries, stop by this well-stocked place on the southeast corner of Parque Central; there’s another branch down by the river.

Lava Lounge
On the west side of town, this cool spot has a few romantic tables at which you can gaze over your margarita into someone’s eyes – but also, the food’s good, the ambience is lively and it’s a welcome addition to evenings in La Fortuna.
