Vegetarian & vegan
Malaga now offers more and more options for tasty and healthy conscience-free food.

Julieta Coffee / La Bella Julieta
Bagels! You thought you’d seen the last of them when you came to Málaga, didn’t you? But no… Not only does La Bella Julieta do bagels, they have a delicious range of sandwiches in all kinds of bread. Add to that delicious cakes, pastries, coffee and juices, and your breakfast, brunch and lunch needs are all taken care of. Despite an impossibly long menu, the offering here is great if you know what you’re looking for. Failing that, go up […]

Noviembre Healthy Food
At Noviembre Healthy Food, the name says it all, right? Located on the bustling Calle Álamos, close to Plaza de la Merced, Noviembre is a charming restaurant with interior design inspired by the hippy havens of Bali, Ibiza and Tarifa. Its cafe-style menu is full of dishes made from fresh, healthy and natural ingredients, with no artificial colourings or flavourings, and plenty of options for vegans, vegetarians and celiacs. Open throughout the day, here you can find an uplifting breakfast, […]

La Tetería
Arabic culture is never too far away in Malaga. There are constant reminders of the city’s Moorish past, whether the Alcazaba or the Hammam. That said, you can also endulge in the flavours of Arabia at one of the many teterías (tearooms). La Tetería is the most popular. It lies in the heart of the centre, squashed between the Cathedral and the Museo Picasso, on the incredibly picturesque Calle San Agustín. They serve a wide range of teas and sweets in […]

Vegetariano El Calafate
There were few vegetarians in Malaga when El Calafate first opened its doors in 2010. It became one of the first eateries in Malaga to have no meat on the menu. In fact, this gap in the market was the primary reason they began their business. Principally the menu is made up of vegetarian versions of traditional Spanish food, though there are dishes from other countries as well, such as falafel and moussaka. Although much of the clientele is local, […]

La Vegana
Tucked away, just off Plaza de la Merced, La Vegana offers Spanish cuisine, but with a vegan twist. This vegan tapas bar opened in 2019 and among its most popular dishes are pil-pil prawns, which are made using soya protein, and tortilla de patatas, the recipe for which is a “house secret”.

DESAL CAFÉ – Brunch & Juices
DESAL CAFÉ does breakfast, brunch and natural juices – and very well. This café might be small but you can’t miss it thanks to the dazzling neon sign on the front which immediately attracts your attention. Once inside, the plant-filled interior and friendly staff will make sure you don’t want to leave (though their terrace is good for people-watching!). Grab a coffee and loaded toast with optional extras for a light breakfast, or go all out and order eggs benedict, […]

Brunchit Coffee & Kitchen
Want to get your day started the right way? Brunchit now has three locations in Malaga city centre. As the name suggests, you can tuck into a big breakfast or brunch, choosing from a menu that includes sandwiches, pancakes, scrambled eggs, toast with charcuterie and much more. If it’s a little later in the day, order a burger, a pizza, a salad bowl… or tuck into something sweet. Enjoy a slice of cake, a pastry or a cookie with a […]

Gloria Hoyos
On the up-and-coming Calle Carretería this tapas bar and restaurant can be enjoyed at any time of day, whether for brunch, a ‘menú del día’ or even an evening drink. It may be small, but the owners of Gloria Hoyos have found creative solutions to get maximum seating space, whether through the long, beer-hall style tables, the sofas or seating at the bar. The menu consists primarily of Spanish dishes given a new and refreshing twist. For breakfast there are […]

El Último Mono Juice & Coffee
Now at an all-new location, tucked down a narrow alley just off Calle Nueva, El Último Mono juice bar is the perfect place to get a healthy dose of sugar. Whether you are just getting your day started or nursing a hangover, take your pick from the vast menu of fruity concoctions, milkshakes and smoothies, all made in front of your eyes. Don’t fancy a juice? Go for a freshly brewed cup of coffee instead. And if you fancy sticking […]

Recyclo Bike Café
This quirky bike shop, which doubles up as a restaurant and bar, is a big favourite in Malaga. Located on the bustling Plaza Enrique García-Herrera, Recyclo Bike Café is a convenient meeting place as it is both in the city centre and close to all the bus stops and train stations. Its outdoor terrace is fantastic on those summer evenings for a casual drink with friends but equally its air-conditioned and quirky interior is popular during the daytime, either as a spot […]

El Tapeo del Soho
From the outside, El Tapeo del Soho looks like any other generic Spanish tapa restaurant. Inside the kitchen, however, it’s a different story. The menu is a real mix of Spanish and other international dishes, but what really stands out is the Lebanese section. You have to try the fried crispy Lebanese bread, whether part of the range of salads, or as an accompaniment to hummus or baba ganoush. Starters are difficult to pass up and we especially recommend the […]

NicPic
When going to NicPic, you might get a little sense of déjà-vu… Cosy interior? With mix’n’match furniture? A stylishly designed logo and menu? Isn’t this a lot like… Dulces Dreams? You’re completely right! Beneath Picnic Dreams, Dulces Dreams’ sister hostel, you find this vegetarian (with plenty of vegan options) and organic restaurant which uses only locally-sourced and homemade ingredients. Food is served all day long, but the breakfasts are especially good, especially the toasts, topped with organic eggs, paired with a freshly-squeezed […]
