Tapas & Spanish in Jávea
Tapas & Spanish in Jávea — 15 places, updated monthly
For authentic Spanish flavour, Jávea's tapas bars and traditional restaurants are concentrated in the old town, where prices are often kinder than the beachfront. This is rice country — arroz a banda and paella are local staples, traditionally eaten at lunch rather than dinner. Look for the menú del día on weekdays for excellent value, and don't be put off by a packed bar — it's usually the best sign.
