Esencias Café, Santa Úrsula Review
Esencias Café is a few kilometers outside of Puerto de la Cruz, in nearby Santa Ursula. Its a little drive or bus ride from the usual tourist trail but well worth the effort. Open everyday except Sunday from 8 am, there is indoor and outdoor seating but it is wise to book in advance as it... Continue reading→
El Padrino Review
We love eating here – Petra, the owner is always so friendly and welcoming. The service is efficient, the place is spotlessly clean, and the atmosphere is always good. Part of an ever-increasing chain of restaurants which also include El Padrino San Amora in La Paz, on the sea front opposite the Lido – the... Continue reading→
Café Bar la Estrella Review
This busy little bar/café is in Punta Brava opposite the huge Santa Rita Church. They use the plaza as a seating area, with six or seven tables located next to the playground, under the shade of large umbrellas. We popped in for some breakfast and were surprised to see they offered an English breakfast which... Continue reading→
La Esencia Review
A LITTLE CORNER OF AUSTRIA This restaurant is tucked away down a little, rather neglected walkway beside the Compostelana Resaurant in the Calle Uruguay (the leading to the Café de Paris). In keeping with the neglected walkway, the sign for the restaurant is also burnt out and not readable so first impression really would be... Continue reading→

Longo Steak House
We have been meaning to try this restaurant for a little while. Located just on the edge of the Plaza del Charco in the heart of Puerto de la Cruz, it always seems to be very busy and popular with both tourists and locals. We did have to wait for a seat for about 10... Continue reading→
Compostelana Plaza del Charco
Part of a chain of 7 restaurants, all but one being in Puerto de la Cruz, we choose to eat here as we both fancied some pasta! As with the service at all the restaurants in this group, it is efficient but not overly friendly! We sat outside on the pavement, choosing to sit on... Continue reading→
Restaurante Peruano
This restaurant is a little bit off the main area and in all honesty a place you would probably walk past without giving it a second glance. We always find the service really friendly, and the atmosphere relaxed. The décor reflects that fact that the restaurant serves Peruvian food (as well as international and Spanish...

The New Robin Hood
For the Brits among us who like a little bit of home cooking even whilst they are abroad, I would just like to say how great the Sunday Roast is at the New Robin Hood located under the Bel Air (the tall building!) First of all you do need to book in advance as Phil... Continue reading→
