El Pirata — Restaurant in Mogán

4 of us had our lunch here a few days ago as its so near the beach. We got 3 jumbo fry ups and my wife ordered a burger.

If you stop by for a drink, go for it. If you look for a nice meal, go...

The view of the beach adds to the experience without inflating the bill. Staff were friendly and efficient, even though the place was quite busy. It didn’t feel rushed or chaotic, just well run. It’s a good choice if you want something casual but decent, and you can comfortably bring...
