    the place is beautiful, and food is good but the service was 5/10, we had to wait for so long to be served, even tho we raised hands couple of times

    Great little find this on our way down to the Alfredo Klaus auditorium. Lovely smoothies and nice fresh light bites to eat. Will be coming again.

    This is a quite cozy place, sometimes it is real full, but off-peak times you will find free place. I would say, it is more for younger generation, because of the style and the furniture, but you have a great view for the sea. Staff is nice, quite fast, according to other spanish places. Fodd is simple, but it is nice, lively and tasty, and it seems tobbe fantasyful. This place is for recommend.

    Niiiice there 😍 Very cool beach bar with good drinks and snacks! Had a barraquito there and it was huuge and very tasty! Also a sandwich as a snack. Employees were very friendly and it‘s perfect to stay there when the sun‘s out to enjoy the day or a quick snack directly close to the beach! When it‘s very cold or windy I wouldn‘t recommend it as it‘s mostly an outdoor area.

    A lively place to chill with affordable prices and great snacks and smoothies. Near the surf spots so ideal to stay while your friends surf or after surf if you're the surfer in the group. And the staff themselves are adorable friendly and always cheerful.

    Stopped here on 29th Dec for a bite to eat with my wife and 2 kids. The food was very nice, I highly recommend the spare ribs. The chips are real potatoes so that is another plus and the chicken was very nice for the kids. Lovely staff and a good vibe there as well. One point to note. The owner/ manager would be better served doing a bit of work rather than trying to be popular with his friends.

    Cocktail 👍🏻 Shisha ( Hookah ) 👍🏻 Friendly 👍🏻 Only the seats and tables can better for this place.

    The music was too loud and the outside is super windy on a standard day. The staff was great overall. We had beers + food, the food was average.

    Just had the most lovely chiperones ever at the block. They have great food and drinks but this is the first time for me with the squid. Succulent and sweet and not overpowered with garlic or other favours - subtle and spectacular!

  • 5/5 Madara C. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic atmosphere, reasonable prices, great view to the beach. Perfect service, I didn't even managed to ask for a blanket when waiter already noticed that i feel cold and offered it before i even said something. Wraps and coffee are delicios!

    I can not say much because we step in very early. But this place looks like have a lot of potential ;) Drinks and service were great. Next time we will stay there for a much longer to be sure. View and music were ok.

  • 5/5 Tobias Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Great view on the surfer's beach, lovely crowd and resonable prices for drinks. Only the pizza was a bit underwhelming but since I didn't come there to eat I didn't care too much ;) Definitely recommended for drinks at a nice part of the beach!
