A proper old-school bar on Calle Pintada where locals have breakfast, travellers come back every morning, and the best cortado in Nerja has been waiting for you since seven.

Café Bar Las Cuatro Esquinas is an old-school bar at Calle Pintada 55, in the centre of Nerja about 400 metres from the Balcón de Europa. It opens every day from 7:00 to 23:00 and is one of the first places in town to serve breakfast. It has more than 1,400 Google reviews with a 4.4 rating.

What to order. Freshly made churros with coffee, the most praised item, plus toast and full breakfasts. Many regulars say its cortado is the best in the area. At lunch and dinner there is home cooking and tapas, and a free tapa comes with your drink. It is one of the cheapest places in the centre: under €10 per person.

Good to know. The atmosphere is local and simple, with a terrace on the street. At peak breakfast times service can be slow, and there are some complaints about toast taking a long time or arriving cold; some also wish it used bakery bread instead of sliced bread.

Who it suits. Anyone who wants to start the day like a local, with churros and coffee, without paying seafront prices. More breakfast spots in our guide to cafés in Nerja.
