El Castillo Beach Bar Moraira: on the beach, from breakfast to evening

El Castillo Beach Bar: the place closest to the water

El Castillo Beach Bar sits on l’Ampolla beach, six minutes’ walk from Calamora. Of all the places to eat in the village this one is closest to the water, and it is open right through from half past nine until ten at night.

Two establishments in one place, and that explains the score

The reviews fall strikingly into two halves, and that is because there are really two establishments side by side here. The beach bar is set up for quick service: breakfast, tapas, things off the grill, burgers, good coffee, and it all moves briskly and cheaply. On the other side is a restaurant with a more ambitious menu and higher prices. The complaints about value for money in the reviews are mostly about that restaurant side; the praise goes to the beach bar. The score of 3.8 is the average of the two. So knowing where you are going to sit makes a difference.

The menu and what they pour
