Café del Mar Beach Restaurante Bar — Restaurant in Tarifa

It was very very disappointing. I have been there few times before and it is not my favourite place. There are better spaces in Tarifa. I was there over the weekend with friends and we have ordered couple of cakes and drinks. I wanted coffee they told me they don't serve coffee. ( which I have had it ion my previous visit) Then 5 minutes past I have noticed table behind us was having a coffee.

I ask other waiter why they say no coffee but serving coffee to other table? He told us he will ask and came back saying they have had a food therefore the coffee is only for people ordered food. ( Bit stupid). I wasn't satisfy with the answer. Then i saw them. serving coffee to other table also i ask again this is not really cool. They said they only work there and they don't make the rules. And I ask them to talk to manager or person in charge setting this rules is nonsense. Bottom line is; I did not care about coffee at this point but the stupidity they have set them self up to was really annoying. First thing; you re not a Micheline Star restaurant and u got bookings and ur place is full u need tables to be turn in specific time. Place has strange WC also.

I wont be going there again, wont recommend it unless u like to get humiliated with...

Next time I come and they tell me they turned off the coffee machine at 4pm. This time I come, sit outside to have a coffee and later a call. I took my laptop checked the battery and the waitress (after ignoring me for 10min) comes and tell me, no hello or anything, with an angry face: „no laptops outside“. The place was half empty. Outside furniture is full of bird poop, birds are flying inside in the cafe. Music is too loud to have a call or work without noise cancelling headphones. A bit sad what happened...

So I imagined that this place, although not based in Ibiza , will have some kind of nice chill out music on, a bit similar to Baleric island tunes, and the food will be OK but not awful. Instead, there was barely any music heard in the background, my crepe was dry and my mint tea didn't arrive ( could be due to language barrier which I understand, i don't speak Spanish so I should not expect alot). The seats need a good wash as some of them had fresh bird's poo. Just disappointed all together. This place has such a...
