"We tried several places in Benidorm but kept coming back to this one. Excellent position, for the view and a little bit away from the main drag. Food is good, drinks good....but for us the service was the thing that made us keep going back. The staff changed on different days, but it made no difference....superb customer attention. Thanks for making our visits so nice."

"Rica’s Cocktail Bar & Restaurant is a place I keep coming back to, and mainly because of the amazing service. Every visit we’re greeted with smiles, great energy, and staff who genuinely make you feel welcome. It’s the kind of place where you instantly relax. The food is always spot on, especially the sandwiches, which are fresh, generous, and really tasty. Drinks are just as good, and they serve the best Shandy I’ve had in Benidorm, no question. Add in the beachfront location with lovely seating looking out to the sea, and it’s hard to beat. A brilliant spot with fantastic staff, I’ll happily return again and again."
