Fish, wine and sea views in Arrieta
Lunch is the best value for money in Arrieta. The ‚menú del día‘ costs between 10 and 13 euros in several restaurants, comprising a three-course meal including a drink, often featuring the catch of the day. In the evening, prices go up, but you’re rewarded with the sight of the sun sinking into the sea. It’s worth booking in summer and at Easter, particularly at Restaurante Amanecer and El Lago, which has racked up 3,600 reviews on Calle Caleta de Campo. Smaller establishments prefer cash, though cards are usually accepted. Malvasía goes down better here than anywhere else.

Tips for your visit
The El Pisquito bar and café at Calle la Noria 6 tops the ratings, with 4.8 stars from 2,825 reviews. Right on Playa de la Garita are terraces overlooking the water, including La Azotea De Arrieta at number 27. A fish restaurant, Los Pescaditos at number 58, specialises in grilled and boiled seafood, as is customary in Lanzarote’s coastal towns.
Two bars are situated away from the beach promenade amongst the low white houses; Casa Paco, for example, is at 15 Calle la Marina. A single café serves coffee and small pastries in the morning. On the outskirts of the village, the blue building of Casa Juanita serves as a landmark for many visitors. Around the harbour, the atmosphere remains intimate and peaceful.

As well as fish and seafood, Arrieta’s restaurants also serve meat-free dishes, such as papas arrugadas with mojo, salads and vegetable tapas. The village’s only café complements the selection with light meat-free dishes and baked goods in the morning.
When is the best time to visit the restaurants in Arrieta?
At lunchtime, after a spot on the sandy beach at Playa de la Garita, Arrieta shows itself at its best. In the early evening, too, the two bars and restaurants impress with fresh fish and views of the coast, often near the blue landmark, Casa Juanita.
