El Chiringuito Calpe

Had lunch here and it was perfect they arranged a seat for us in the front to be overlooking the sea prawn started was lovely and the nacho beef and bacon delicious great venue and service

Have you changed ownership?? What a pile of a sh *t show service. Asked for something to be taken off the bill today as the “fresh OJ” was served to me warm. I spat it out as it was like bath water. €4 to you …. Waitress argued with us about with two pathetic excuses. The table behind us argued about the orange juice too We used to come here for brunch and breakfast all the time. We have a home here and this used to be one of our favourite spots. I was really civil to the waitress as well and she got defensive like why would she care just take the 4 euros off ?? Thanks god for for Cafeseamos for all our breakfasting as we will never come back here. Day time menu was bland but I coped with that it was the attitude and arguing from the waitress that had really pissed me off Service was slow always a long wait for menus and drinks orders You’ve gone downhill.

Having checked with the waiter that the fish dish I was ordering didn’t present with head and tail, I was assured not. A skeleton resembling something pre historic then appeared on my plate, complete with head, spine and tail and lacking in both the citrus mayonnaise and sweet chilli advertised. On raising this with a member of staff, I was told I had chosen a ‘sharing dish’ which was a) untrue and b) irrelevant. The plate was mostly filled with 4 dry, bland potato wedges not mentioned on the menu though the small pieces of fish were tasty and in fairness, an alternative was offered but I didn’t want to wait another 20 30 minutes and then eat alone. I opted for a complimentary coffee instead. Disappointing meal but had the waitress been less accusatory in her response to my complaint, the review would doubtless be much more favourable.

We arrived without reserve and exquisite attention. a menu according to the price. Actually, we're back tomorrow.

Local muy bien ambientado. A pie del paseo marítimo. Terraza muy agradable e interior climatizado. Gran variedad de cervezas y comida original. Camareros muy amables. Recomendable. Gracias!
