Great atmosphere, beautiful view, maybe a bit too loud at times. The restaurant is quite popular, places are limited, and prices are on the higher side.

It is possible to order takeaway as well and pay at the entrance, which is a good option for eating on the beach. Vegan options were the fries and grilled vegetables.. tasted ok, but wished they had more than that.

Reservations required in advance! There was a huge line at the entrance. If you booked a table, it is allowed to drive all the way down to the beach (between 4-6pm the road is closed off due to limited parking spaces).

Beautiful location with a really lovely terrace overlooking the pebble beach. The owner was very pleasant; he welcomed us in for coffee & breakfast at 9.00 when they opened. Sadly, most of the rest of the staff seem to have been afflicted with the same “too cool for school” hacked off, grumpy attitude we also saw in a few other eateries around Javea; with a distinct lack of interest in their customers (we’re the ones who visit your workplace to spend our cash, so your jobs remain secure). The coffees were great; the food was ok….delicious fried eggs & decent (mostly) fresh ingredients. But a few smiles wouldn’t have gone amiss. If the waiters are this un-enamoured of their clientele at opening, I can only imagine how they deal with tourists by later in the day…..😱 The exception was Nestor, one of the bus boys who was smiley, friendly and charming. He should be moved to front of house; he had exactly the right kind of personality for the job. Dog friendly!

Addendum: The owner replied...he obviously doesn't know what a 'bus-boy' is 😱  He was the guys who cleared our plates. Perhaps check the names of your staff? I asked him his name & he told me it was Nestor. I was definitely reviewing the correct place. And my comment about the luke-warm welcome from your staff does still stand.

Yummy drinks, amazing atmosphere and very good service. Would recommend making a reservation as they tend to be very busy but we managed to get a table for two at around 3:45 and were able to stay until 5. Would definitely recommend!
