Whale Tail Brewery
Costa Rica
Avis
I want to love this place, but left feeling meh. Food was good but far larger than expected and not quite as advertised. Chicken wings were actually fried chicken. The smash burger was almost 2cm thick, which is decidedly not “smashed.” Beer was good. Had to get up a few times to ask for service (more beer, silverware, the check) when we were the only two here.
Start with the positives. The Staff was friendly and easy to get along with. The French fries are good. Unfortunately the burgers we got were really bad and expensive. $20 for a smash burger. Supposed to have caramelized onions and other goodies. This burger was a hockey puck. Raw onions. No flavor. The reviews showed people really liking the burgers but in my experience it was an extremely overpriced burger that was not good. I really don’t mind spending money on good food but nothing annoys me more than paying premium price for sub par food.
From the coastal shores of Uvita to the waterfall views in La Fortuna, Whale Tail Brewery CR is the ultimate taste of the tropics. 🐋🍻 There is something special about sipping a craft brew that blends European tradition with Costa Rican soul. Did you know? Their Brewmaster brings over 17 years of experience all the way from Italy, using the jungle’s pure water to create beers that perfectly complement the Pura Vida lifestyle.

I had such a great experience at this place! The waiter was fantastic, and Gian, the owner, was incredibly nice and friendly. I can't get over how delicious their in-house brews were! Plus, there’s a wonderful variety of food and drinks to choose from. I absolutely loved it!
