Hi Viejo,
Hope all has been doing well.
Before I took over Bar Central I went and set down with the chief of police that is in charge of the Escazu area, thank God I have had a good relationship with the local police from working at Time Out Tavern for over 5 yrs. I shared with the police chief that I would be taking over Bar Central and I would like the police to give me support, I also went to the Municipality police which once again I have gotten to know very well and asked the same.
So to answer your question, as far as a employed security guard at the front door or inside the bar, I do not have one. Since I have spoken with both police departments they do drive by daily and nightly, and the police walk into Bar Central and say hello to the locals.
Stop in the next time you are in town it will be nice to see you!
