Buchón
They call it a cantina, but that’s not quite correct. Buchón is actually one of the better drinking dens in San José. Their cocktails are classic but well made, while their wine list isn’t long but it’s well chosen. There’s also a full menu of homey small plates and bistro fare like meatballs, mussels, and a decent burger. With its flea market décor and hipster clientele, you could drop it in Brooklyn or Paris and no one would know the difference.
