Best place to dance in Coco for the over 30 crowd. Excellent value for your money. Hankering for some North American style food, try Saturday night, buffet and blues for $20. The proprietor Jimbo is a kick in the pants as the shows MC. What could be more fun than shaking your tail feathers under the stars, while listening to...

Great spot if you like hot. Music is fair to meddlin at best including DW when advertised as 'entertainment' - Staff is mostly stuffy - 60% of patrons have something up their rear ends. The proprietor, JJ, is offensive and abusive. I would NOT recommend this place.

My wife and our friends went to the Bar for an evening with Donny Walsh from the Downchild Blues Band. He has a Condo in Coco and plays every Saturday night during the month of February. The whole crowd I bet were Canadians, well at least 90%. The place was packed with a great bunch of people, even Donny went...

Saturday night we went to see the Downchild Blues band. Opening band was The Leathernecks. Great fun and just what you'd expect from a beach bar. Tip: pre-arrange your ride home.

Great little open air bar on the beach. Cold, cheap beer, good food and very pleasant staff. Great music on Saturday nights, Donnie Walsh and the Leatherbacks!!! Really, really good band!!

Cold beer. Friendly ex-pats. Hosts a helluva live music show on some weekends. The food is reasonable, and the addition of the Pizza oven is a plus. But really, you're in Coco for the beach, and no other venue puts you right on top of it like La Vida Loca. Just go here. And stay. For awhile, at least.

We come down to Coco for 4 months out of the year. One of the best things about this place is how much the owner gives back to the community. He is always the first to step up and offer assistance to charities or those in need. We often come here for drinks. It is more of a local hang...

Went with friends for an artist/music event with a C.R. artist ( Carlos Hiller ) doing a painting inspired by the local musicians. It was a fun night and very busy there. That might be why the service was very slow. Lots of dancing after the painting was done and a good time was had by all. The presence of...
