For groceries and everyday supplies in Nosara, use Super Nosara and Super Paloma. For organic food, go to Organico. For wine, there’s Bottle-O and Swill.

Where do you buy groceries in Nosara?

Super Nosara and Super Paloma are the go-to grocery stores for daily needs — fresh produce, pantry staples, and household items. Both are locally owned, which is the norm for shops in town. If you’re stocking up for the week or pulling together supplies for a gathering, start here.

Where can you buy organic food in Nosara?

Organico. It’s a short drive from the estate and carries organic products sourced from around Costa Rica. You’ll find locally baked sourdough, fresh pastries, and organic snacks, plus an in-store bar with poke bowls and salads. It fits the wellness-minded side of Nosara well.

Where do you buy wine in Nosara?

Two shops: Bottle-O and Swill. Both carry a curated selection from around the world, whether you’re putting together a dinner or just want a good bottle for the evening. Boutique wine has a growing following in Nosara, and these are the reliable stops.

Where can you find imported and international foods?

The Discount Italian Store is the one to know. It stocks international cheeses, cured meats, pastas, and Italian cooking staples at reasonable prices. Living in Nosara doesn’t mean giving up the ingredients you cook with.

What is the Nosara farmers’ market?

The Tuesday Farmers’ Market is the weekly highlight. It brings together Costa Rican organic produce, fresh-caught fish, and locally made goods — cacao, baked treats, clothing, and jewelry. It’s as much a community gathering as a market, and a good place to meet local growers and makers.

Stock the pantry at Super Nosara or Super Paloma, add organics from Organico, and fill in the rest at the Tuesday market.

The short version: Super Nosara and Super Paloma cover everyday groceries, Organico handles organic food, Bottle-O and Swill are the wine shops, the Discount Italian Store covers imported goods, and the Tuesday Farmers’ Market is the weekly source for local produce and crafts — all near the estate.
