Museo Café Cabañas
About This Museum
You won't find another place quite like Museo Café Cabañas—it's a charmingly eclectic mix of museum, cozy café, and guesthouse all rolled into one. It feels less like a formal institution and more like you're exploring the fascinating, cluttered attic of a history-obsessed friend. The vibe is wonderfully relaxed, inviting you to linger over a coffee after you've browsed the collections. It’s the perfect spot for anyone who thinks learning about the past should be a comfortable and personal experience.
Collection Highlights
The collection is a delightful cabinet of curiosities, from pre-Columbian pottery shards and vintage photographs of Nindirí to old farming tools that tell the story of local life. One minute you're looking at ancient artifacts, and the next you're admiring traditional masks or beautifully crafted saddles.
Visitor Information
Grab a table in the café afterward; their local coffee is fantastic. Since it's also a hostal, the hours can be flexible, so it's probably wise to check ahead if you're making a special trip.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a traditional, single-story structure with a classic tile roof and a welcoming veranda area that blurs the line between inside and out.
