I'm going to be honest, I'm always disappointed with the tapas in Benidorm compared to other Spanish resorts... It resembles left over kids party food and this confirms it lol... It's like the fast-food version of tapas that's been adapted for a particular clientèle... It's fine as a snack with a few drinks as something different from what you normally have but tapas in Benidorm is nothing like the real thing!
The place we went to is bog standard original style tapas... to accompany a drink, but if you go up Tapas Alley there is much more variety and bigger portions which will equal any of the tapas bars in the big cities, but basic tapas is just that... basic.
When you went into the tapas bar did you find a free table first or go straight to the counter and do they bring the food and wine to the table or do you carry your food and wine to any available table. Never been in one as you can tell but want to.
Hi Robert we looked for a table , Cath sat down and I went to the bar and chose the tapas and ordered the drinks and paid then I took the food and drink to our table. Hope this helps 🙂

There is not enough of the old town. More please!
Sorry Danny, we are back down in Quesada now but if we manage to get back in there we will do more. We love the old town🙂

Oh brilliant thank you, really unsure how it worked so it put me off but I'll give it a try now.
A thoroughly enjoyable and informative episode.
Thank you ♦️
Glad you enjoyed it!
It’s not the best for your money. Next door is it’s 3 euros more but far better quality and better wine, beer etc. Great video
Thanks for that, next time we will give it a try 🙂
Was lovely to chat with you both. Hopefully catch up next time you in Benidorm.
Hi Julie, it was lovely to meet you both, and hopefully meet you both again 😊
Nice one again.👍👍
