La Cocina de Santos
Calle ávila nº1
San Pedro Alcantara

Large restaurant with seating for over 150 people, both inside and on the outside terrace, so great for events and large groups.
Authentic Spanish tapas, and at very reasonable prices, this restaurant is often packed out with locals, especially in the summer months, when it’s warm enough to sit outside. It’s a great atmosphere, and the staff are always friendly. This is one of our favourite places to come for tapas in San Pedro, and often take people here when they are visiting to give them the ‘tapas’ experience.

We can very much recommend the Lime Chicken and the sliced meat on the stone. A great place to come with a group of friends for a party, as they have a large room inside, as well as the main restaurant area, and the outside terrace. They also have a great wine selection.

We discovered this restaurant when they liked a post on our Instagram page. We are big foodies here at the San Pedro Guide so when we saw the photos, we knew we had to try it.

El Candil Restaurant & Bar
C. Andalucía, s/n, 29670
San Pedro Alcántara, Málaga
This is another San Pedro institution. Run by the charismatic Alfonso, it has probably one of the best wine collections in the area. Alfonso is highly respected in San Pedro and if you need wine recommendations, he is somewhat of an expert. On a recent visit to El Candil I got chatting to a lady at the wine cellar when she pointed to a bottle and said “that bottle is mine”. I of course politely said “please you have it”. What she meant was that it was HER vineyard and that was HER wine. IT WAS LOVELY!!

Chiringuito Guayaba Beach
Playa Linda Vista, La Gitanilla,
s/n, 29670 San Pedro
952 78 49 69
Only open during the summer this is a beach bar with a very cool vibe. It gets packed when it is open as it is literally on the beach. One of our favourite venues for lunch and dinner during the summer months and the food is simple but great.
El Ancla Beach Club & Restuarant
Av. Carmen Sevilla, s/n,
29670 Marbella, Málaga
While this is more known for being a beach club, they have a wonderful restaurant overlooking the sea. If you book try and get a table on the terrace right by the sea. It feels like you are dining on a cruise ship! I always feel that the decor and service is very much that of the south of France, but the food is very much about the fish and seafood of Spain. Not cheap but a great experience!
