About this place Bar El 13

Bar El 13 is listed as an LGBTQ+ bar on Avenida 14 in central San José, Costa Rica. It has a decent number of Google reviews (4.0 from about 490), but we have no confirmed hours, phone or programme. The streets south of the centre can be rough late at night, so use a taxi or ride app to get there and back, and check recent reviews first.
