The Railway Tavern — Restaurant in Dénia

Denia's secret little gem. Just off the main street about 4 minutes walk, near the train station is The Railway Tavern. It's not very obvious where this bar is as it is hidden under a residential block on a street full of parked cars. But this is the place where you will find traditional English food like Fish and chips, steak pie, gammon and egg, Sunday roast, as well as tapas, sandwiches, homemade burger and wraps.

I have been craving for traditional fish and chips for a while. In the past, I had to drive all the way to Javea or Moraira for them, but now, it's going to be a thing of the past.

The bar is not big but there are both indoor and outdoor seating area. We ordered 3 fish and chips (€8.80 each), sparking water, beer and a non-alcoholic beer. The food didn't take long to arrived. The fish and chips come with a slice of lemon, mashy peas, tartar sauce, and a slice of bread and butter.

The fish was delicious!!! The batter was crispy and not oily, and it tasted exactly how it should be. The fish was juicy and meaty. The chips are homemade chips, which means fresh potato and not frozen. There is room for improvement with the chips though. They were a little over-fried, also I think they've used the wrong type of potato (i.e. potato for boiling instead of potato for frying), hence they were not crispy on the outside and soft on the inside like they should be. Nevertheless, they were nice. The mashy peas were also good, and the tartar sauce goes perfectly with the fish.

The lady who served us (presuming she's the owner) was really friendly and made us feel welcome.

In conclusion, the food was great, the price is good, and the service was great. I am definitely looking forward to come here many more times in the future for fish and chips, as well as trying out other dishes. Highly...

Just stopped over in Denia for one night and wanted to watch England play so ended up in The Railway Tavern after a quick search on Google. By chance it was quiz night although we missed the start. The pub was very busy, great atmosphere amongst the mainly expat punters who were all there for the quiz not the football. The landlady brought chips and onion rings out for everyone which was a nice touch. We hadn't intended to stay the whole night but we did. Great little pub if you want to be part of the local Brit community or are passing through like us. Food nice, lovely people, excellent quiz, sport on TV. Might have to...

We visited the Railway Tavern last September. It was during the time of the Queen’s funeral and we had booked a space. They provided a lovely atmosphere for a somber occasion. Food was provided and they never charged for any of it. We then went a few evenings later for the Friday fish and chips. Great portion sizes and the food was lovely and great value. It’s a friendly place and other customers happy to share their experiences of Denia which as a tourist was very helpful. Will definitely visit again when we are...
