GRAN ALACANT RESTAURANTS

Gran Alacant has numerous bars and restaurants to suit a wide variety of tastes and budgets. There are 5 main areas for bars and restaurants :

- Urb. Puerto Marino / GA Centre (close to the Lidl and Mercadona supermarkets),
- Urb. Costa Hispania
- Urb. Panorama and Urb Sueno Azul
- Urb. Altomar 2
- Plaza Mayor (behind the MASA offices and Supa Valu supermarket)

In between these are bars and restaurants on their own, some tucked away, but all well signed from the main roads.

Following is a list of bars and restaurants in Gran Alacant grouped together by type.   We haven't visited all of these and therefore won't make any specific recommendations, other than to say we haven't had a bad meal in the many we have tried!  If you have a good meal, or evening's entertainment, remember to take away a business card ("tarjeta de la casa") or a menu ("la carta") to leave in your holiday property for others to see.
