Maraú Beach Club Bar & Restaurant

Michael Petty Bars and Restaurants, Local Interest , , , , 2 Comments

Maraú Beach Club is all set to be a popular destination this summer. We haven’t tried the food but the menu is extensive and reasonably priced considering the beachfront location. They also have a pool and sunbeds. When we went it was reasonably busy and they were playing pleasant music, not too loud.

It looks like the place to be seen, I prefer a more traditional Chiringuito.

The restaurant is open from 13:00 to 16:00 and from 20:00 to 23:30. Reservations: 950 961 961
Their Facebook page says the bar is open from 11.00 till 06.00

This video does a good job of showing what they offer.

Lunch At The Bistro

Michael Petty Bars and Restaurants , , , , 0 Comment

We have been to The Bistro a few times and it never disappoints.

 

 

Our latest visit was perfect in every way. The restaurant is situated at Playa Laguna and enjoys a lovely uninterrupted sea view from the other side of the road. You can of course sit inside but it is one of our favourites for an outdoor meal. Spencer and his team were attentive and friendly. The menu has a lot of choice but not too much and there are generally specials as well.

The food was hot and freshly cooked. We had the Cod Goujons and Chicken Teriyaki for starters and the Friday Fish & Chips and Spare Ribs as mains and all 4 were lovely. Can’t comment on the puds as we were replete and we’re not small eaters! So two ample courses, coffee and 4 drinks for 40€ including a deserved tip, we went home happy and enjoyed a G&T in the garden. We have no hesitation in recommending The Bistro to our guests. www.discoveralmeria.com

Lunch At Boracay Restaurant, Garrucha.

Michael Petty Bars and Restaurants, Finca Arboleda , 1 Comment

Boracay restaurant is situated on the beach at Garrucha with tables outside or indoors. It is very stylish and modern. They do not serve a budget menu del dia but offer a wide selection of tasty tapas, raciones and fish or meat main courses.

We were a group of eight and had a selection of raciones of fish dishes, mussels, large hake balls, cod and squid all well cooked in different sauces. This was probably enough but we had already ordered a mixed paella for six people. It was quite moist, which is how I prefer it and was full of chicken and fish and decorated with mussels and prawns. Although full one of our group insisted that I join him by having a chocolate brownie! We brought home a substantial doggy bag for Stig and he gave it his approval.

Verdict? Not cheap but a lovely restaurant in a beautiful setting, the food was excellent, well served and we all enjoyed it. Certainly one for a special occasion or just pop in for a beer and tapa, you won’t regret it.
