Outback Jack's Beach Bar & Grill

Penelope and Jack Williams have operated the Outback Jack’s Beach Bar N Grill for 7 years. They moved to Puerto Viejo de Talamanca three years ago. During that time, the place has won a serious reputation for good food, service, and funky ambiance. Penelope and Jack are not just restaurant owners, they have become friends to many of their regular customers.

Outback Jack’s Beach Bar N Grill attracts guests from all over the globe. The food served consists of barbecued steaks, ribs, tasty little chicken wings, Aussie burgers and fresh fries, sautéed vegetables, roasted potatoes, salads, homemade sauces and soups, fresh sea food, whole fried red snappers, crab cakes, local dishes… always with an emphasis made on the flavor and presentation. A variety of cocktails is also served: margarita, pina colada, daiquiri, and the world famous “Bloody Jack”… The restaurant has a very positive cash flow, is very successful and is one of the first things tourists see when they come to Puerto Viejo.

Special events take place for Halloween, the 4th of July, Super bowl final, Mardi Gras, New Year’s Eve, Monday Jack got his tooth pulled, and any other excuse to have a party.

Penelope and Jack truly enjoyed running Outback Jack’s. But they now want to take time to write books about all the adventures they have been through all around the world (you can see the project of their first book onKickstarter).
