Our Story

The local Langosta hangout

Cold beers, good food, games & live sports

The Surf Club is your casual hangout spot in Langosta. People walk up from the beach, put a board against the wall, and stay longer than they meant to.

We opened in Langosta in 2016 because we loved coming here but there was nowhere to get a cold drink and a decent meal. Whether you're surfing the afternoon waves, looking for some fun activities for the kids, or just after a lowkey meetup with friends, we've got you covered.

Half the room lives here. Half the room flew in yesterday. By the second beer you can't tell which is which.

We serve bar food and we're not pretending otherwise, but we take pride in the quality of it. With previous experience running a deli, we make our own chilli sauces and pickles, smoke our own meats, and source fresh local seafood for our ceviche. Come hungry, stay for the second half.

Where: Two minutes' walk up from the sand at Playa Langosta
Who: Surfers, families, the Tamarindo crowd, and whoever wandered down the road
Games: NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, Premier League, Champions League, PGA, WSL. Tell us what you want on and we'll put it on
Kids & dogs: Both fine. Both usually here
