Our Guestbook
“ I had a great time last night. The band was rocking and it seemed like everyone was in good spirits. Easy, non judgemental location. I had a BLT with fries. The bacon was super hard so, to me, I've had better here so I'm thinking it is a one off. Absolutely will be going back. ”
“ Had good bar food with a great friendly, upbeat atmosphere! We hit Mike’s on a Saturday night when they had a band playing. Although they closed early (at 9pm or 21:00 as they say around here) the band was very good, they sounded great and had a good full range sound system (we eat at Big Daddy’s the other night and the bands sound was flat with no high notes). Everyone at Mike’s was talking, friendly, engaging and it was a mix of locals and visitors. Oh and the outside patio sits along the creek and you can hear and see it during your time there. ”
“ Superb food, cheap beer, excellent service... Mike's Global Grill is the place. This is where I'm hanging out while I'm in Boquete. The beer is good and cheap, service is excellent, and Mike is an outstanding chef. The menu is varied and daily specials are globally oriented, as well as of superb quality. Taco Tuesday is excellent, but for my money Fried Chicken Fridays are totally off the chain. Highly, HIGHLY recommeded! ”
“ Great place with good food and cocktails. Always meet interesting people here. Prices are good. ”
“ Very friendly atmosphere. You could feel like you visit your older brother who let you feel like at home. The food is delicious - fresh cut fries and the fried pickles just fantastic. Totally recommended. Thank you Mike for such a great time. ”
“ The atmosphere is really great when they have live music (normally in the evenings on Fridays and Saturdays and possibly other nights too). The food is good and not overly expensive. ”
“ This is a chill spot right on the river. The owner we were told is an old Chicagoan so we had to make a stop. It's cash only, they don't take credit cards. Sometimes they close early too so who knows. It's also filled with expats from Canada and the US so brush up on your English haha ”
