Incredible Arepas and all are Gluten Free. I had ham and cheese and it was the best thing I have eaten in Costa Rica.

Delicious and quick semi- street food. Almost everything seemed to be gluten-free, they had hamburgers but there’s several big hamburger-focused restaurants right beside so I doubt they sell many. Focus is really on the arepas

Small arepa stand. Not dedicated GF but they cook the arepas in a separate pan and kept gluten items separate. In truth I didn’t see anyone order a hamburger or hotdog (their gluten items) as it is really an arepa stand and all the arepas are GF. Good food, friendly and understanding w questions and very inexpensive.

They have many kinds of arepas and they’re so good! I’ve gotten La Ranchera and La Chula. I highly recommend as they are very filling and not expensive!
