About

El Tintero in Málaga offers a truly unique dining experience right on the coast. Known as a beachfront institution, this lively spot is famed for its delicious Mediterranean and Spanish cuisine, with the paella and anchovies receiving particular praise. What sets El Tintero apart is its vibrant atmosphere where waiters skillfully parade a variety of fresh seafood plates for guests to choose from by simply calling out. Without a traditional menu, diners enjoy the spontaneity of selecting dishes like a wide array of fried and grilled seafood. Whether you're in for brunch, lunch, or dinner, the energy at El Tintero remains the same, enhanced by the option of sipping on a cold beer, a glass of wine, or a hand-crafted cocktail. Choose to dine alfresco to fully immerse yourself in the lively beachfront vibes, or if you prefer, there's also indoor seating available. Payment by credit card is accepted, and you'll find convenient street and free parking options nearby.

Espectacular, los espetos están buenísimos. Todo lo que probamos estaba muy bien, muy típico de Málaga. El ambiente es auténtico y agradable, ideal para disfrutar de buena comida cerca del mar. Repetiremos.

Amazing and every visit at Malaga we come back to El Tinetero. What a party! Not 5 stars because of the price. Al the rest is great

Si no buscas lujo ni tranquilidad pero te gusta comer bien, un trato afable y una playa al lado, a buen precio, este es un magnífico lugar. El único pero, el aparcamiento.
