Title: Arboleas Restaurant
Post by: restoration man on October 10, 2017, 09:13:43 AM
On the topic of a restaurant, why can't someone start up a good restaurant in the location of the village. I'm sure it would be welcomed by all the villages around about. It would certainly be easier to get to than the Castille which is only open when there is a z in the month. We only have 2 'restaurants' in this area both Spanish with few menu options, another which again has limited options and is overpriced, yet Alfoquia and Cucador have restaurants/entertainment.

Tend to agree. Azabache has a pretty good menu  and menu del dia if you ask. Also entertainment a couple of nights a week.
hostal maison has a very large selection on its menu and a fairlygood restaurant.
It would be nice to have a place like la cena in arboleas but without the owners.

I cannot understand why people feel the need for entertainment when dining out, what's wrong with just enjoying a quiet meal with Family and friends.?

I'd be happy to find a restaurant, any restaurant, anywhere that banned the use of mobile phones and  tablets. Why can't people go out for a quiet meal and just talk.!!!

Yes it would be nice to have a nice restaurant local but the replies show the problem it depends on what you class as a restaurant  and what you class as a cafe /snack bar in my opinion it is a lot deeper than just food (plenty of great greasy spoons in uk ) for example a bowling alley or plastic seats in an attachment to a swimming pool/sports area would never be a restaurant also music other than background or sports tv would never be in a restaurant just my oplnion

The last thing I want when I'm having a meal is a band, a singer, or even worse - karaoke.

Definitely no live music, no plastic chairs but nice clean tablecloths, in pleasant surroundings. Something like the Bella Vista in Mojacar  would be nice...

Bella vista  indeed is top class and the staff are welcoming and very pleasant.  Highly recommended especially for lunch.
i need a driver when i go there.
