TAMARINDO GROCERY SHOPPING

You’ll be pleasantly surprised by the number of Tamarindo Grocery Stores. No matter where you say, you won’t be far from one. In Tamarindo, our American/European style supermarket is called Automercado. It carries a wider variety of international products than the other supermarkets, and it offers the best possibility of finding everything you’re looking for in one store.

Two Tamarindo Grocery Stores specialize in organic products: Pimienta Verde and El Almacen are both organic markets that offer clean local eating to everyone in Tamarindo.

There is one Costa Rican chain grocery store called Super Compro which may carry Costa Rican staples (rice, coffee eggs, paper products) at a lower price than some of the international-focused stores, but as you know from grocery shopping at home–never assume!

The final type of Tamarindo grocery store that you will find throughout the town and also in Langosta are small food markets and convenience-store type shopping. Las Palmas is a Costa Rican-style market. Las Olas is an American style convenience store/liquor store/grocery.

Super 2001 and Super Langosta are Italian-owned markets and may have a wider variety of European products.
Super Pura Vida is a Costa Rican convenience store/grocery.
Vindi is a mini-market/convenience store that is a subsidiary of Automercado.
