A friend and I spent 3 weeks birding in and around Manzanillo and we almost invariably gravitated toward Funky Manza Pizza when we were in town. The thin-crust pizza was delicious, Gloriana a wonderfully entertaining and accommodating host, and the Wi-Fi reasonably reliable (at least by Manzanillo standards; after all, the "Camino de Penetracion" from Puerto Viejo didn't even reach...

Had a great pizza here, and loved chatting to the young Argentinian couple working there whilst en-route from Tierra-del- Fuego to Alaska in an old white stretched limo!

My husband and I had several occasions to eat at Funky Manza Pizza but the last was well above and beyond. A group of travelers from Cabinas Bucus decided to join up for a meal one evening. After walking the main street we very quickly discovered that nothing was open. Not to worry, the owner and avid surfer of Funky... More

The pizza was great, it's a kick back place with good vibes. Gloriana is awesome, and a wealth of information. If your a surfer she can give you some good info as she is one of the best. We had a pizza party of twenty there,mcame in late, and they did a good job. Thanks

We spent two weeks in Manzanillo and kept coming back to Funky Manza again and again. The pizzas are really nicely done with fresh ingredients and a tasty thin crust. Their crepes are a really nice treat as well. As good as the food is, the owners are even better. They are just fantastic people, very, very friendly and we... More

This is one of our favorite lunch spots on the Caribbean! The owners (Gloriana and Thomas) are so pleasant and friendly. Gloriana is very passionate about the environment, and both are very knowledgable about local impact and sustainable practices. The food is fresh, local, well priced, and very tasty. A great place to chill out and enjoy an afternoon. Don't... More

This is a great spot owned by a Costa Rican native. Great thin crust pizza and other food specials. BYOB or drink theirs! They are also knowledgeable of the tours and activities and run a nice clean hostel for backpackers and other communal travelers.

Awesome. Go there prepared for the long wait between ordering and your meal arriving. It's worth every second. This remains the best pizza I have ever eaten made even better by its being so completely unexpected.

This little jem of a place is mellower and friendlier than a beach party in 1970s California. It’s owned by our new friends Gloriana, a lovely, vibrant Costa Rican girl, and Thomas, a smashing, friendly Parisian guy. One of my ambitions in life is to hang out with these people again. They’re a wonderful couple who befriended my girlfriend and... More
