Fuengirola is a real paradise for those who love good food. Here you will find everything from classic tapas bars to modern restaurants with an international menu. Whether you want a casual dinner by the seafront or a tasty lunch in the old town, there is something here for every occasion and taste.
Tapas, fish and Andalusian tradition
One of the most authentic experiences in Fuengirola is eating tapas. In the center and along the small squares of the old town you will find charming tapas bars where locals gather to enjoy small dishes accompanied by a glass of vino tinto or cerveza. Try classics like boquerones, albóndigas and fried prawns – always at reasonable prices.
Craving fresh fish? Visit the beach restaurants – beach bars – along Playa de Los Boliches or Playa de Carvajal. Here, the catch of the day is grilled over an open fire and served with a sea view. Don't miss the local specialty "espeto de sardinas" – grilled sardines on skewers.
International cuisine and modern flavors
Fuengirola also has a wide range of international restaurants thanks to its multicultural population. In the district The Pacos you will find Scandinavian bakeries, Indian curry houses, sushi, Thai restaurants and much more. Many expats also appreciate the area's modern cafes and health restaurants with vegan or gluten-free options.
Fine dining and unique experiences
