Yes I saw one in the movie Blow starring Johnny Depp (2001).

Not really. But if you take a chess board with you and set it up on a beach side cafe, you're likely to get a game. You may lose your spouse though, so it's a tough trade-off.

Hi maxwg. We have chessboards on the tables in our BrewPub! We're located in the heart of Old Town on the corner of Constitucion and Caranza. Hope you can make it by for a match ;)

Los Muertos is a nice spot for a drink and a bite to eat, but no real chess action is going on there.

@MMSANCHEZ you can go downtown in the Zona Romantico area or more specifically Cafe Del Mar between 7PM and 10PM everyday except Sunday. Also in the Library during the day off Francisco Villa.

Anyone have any luck in PV? I read this thread before I went in March. Set up a board oceanside; no takers. Couldn't find anything else. Down there for dental for a week this month. Board stiff. Any leads would be most appreciated.

Cafe in the Sun in Zona Romantica... also there are a few guys just around the corner from Panchos Tacos that place on a sole table with two chairs on the sidewalk.  Manga and a couple other guys

I am here in puerto Vallarta currently and the sand men indeed do play chess on the Malicon. I was wondering if there are any other players here that would like to play chess as well we are in the Hotel Zone

For all Chess players who are traveling to or live here in Puerto Vallarta, if you are in search of a place to play chess go to Cafe + Leche https://www.google.com/search?q=cafe+%2B+leche+puerto+vallarta&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#

The owner is from Dallas Texas and plays chess as well and knows the other chess players here as well. The coffee and drinks are great here as well. I hadn’t had much luck with finding anyone playing here until I stopped in this cafe

Anyone that is here in Puerto Vallarta area come out Wednesday November 30 2022 to Cafe+Leche. There will be various chess players here including myself showing off their skills. If you enjoy chess as much as I do please come show your support.
