Go to the Metropol restaurant at Isla Verde...that's 2 minutes from the airport....The Food and prices are GREAT.... after eating you can shop around the same Isla Verde Avenue..
When You get to the Terminal...Go downstairs....to Ground Transportation....Look for the Dept of Tourism Taxi Stand...they will call you a Taxi and tell You how much it will be...(they have Flat rates to specific Tourist Location and Isla Verde is one of them).
Old San Juan is to Far and congested to go for only 2 hours...

If you only have 2 hours I would stay in the airport. It takes an hour just to clear security when you come back. If you had more time I would suggest a taxi out to Old San Juan for shopping and dining.

The Old San Juan is the best place to eat, shopping & tourism. This is a colonial city. You don't need car and You can visit many great places.
Places to visit:
El Morro
La Fortaleza
El Capitolio
El Paseo de la Princesa
La Puerta del Viejo San Juan
La Plaza
El Castillo de San Cristobal
El Parque de Las Palomas

If you only have 2 hours its best you stay at the airport. You wont have enough time to clear security, get a cab, sit through our ever popular traffic, wait 4 food, eat come back.... well I guess you get the picture... you will miss the plane.
I recommend you plan a trip with more time to really enjoy our tropical Paradise.
but good luck on what you decide.

Dont risk it, if you get caught in traffic (which you will) during the day you make it to nowhere, plus is if at night that you get there, you are risking not being able to find transportation back to the airport. Not agood idea in PR or anywhere with only 2 hours to spare, but if you feel lucky try any of the above ideas they are all very nice places.

Sorry, in two hours you wont even get out of the parking lot....that's how bad the traffic is there around the airport and just abt anywhere on the Island. Don't risk missing your flight connection... Good luck.

Well there are places nearby but not for two hours, I can recommend you to visit "Plaza Las Americas". Is a huge shopping mall and has a food court with a great variety for the whole family.

Don't risk it... 2 hours is too little time... it's true you won't even leave the parking lot.
