El Muelle de Arriate – Our Top Recommendation:
Just a 5-minute drive from El Noque, El Muelle de Arriate is a dining experience you won’t want to miss. Run by the amazing Frank, who has become a dear friend, this restaurant is set in a converted railway building right on the train tracks, with stunning views of the Sierra de Grazalema mountains.
The Menu: Choose from an extended menu or let Frank recommend his favorites. Whether you’re craving a simple Russian salad or a filet with a cornucopia of delectable flavours, every dish is crafted using fresh, high-quality local produce.
The Setting: In summer, dine al fresco on the terrace as the last train of the day passes by, the driver waving hello. In winter, snuggle up by the open fire with a hot cup of coffee and a slice of homemade cake.
The Experience: Whether it’s a hearty casserole after a long hike or an intimate dinner with family and friends, El Muelle de Arriate offers a truly unique and memorable experience.
Tragata – Modern Tapas with a Twist:
This trendy tapas bar in Ronda offers a modern take on traditional Spanish dishes. The creative small plates and cozy atmosphere make it a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
