Flicks Bar Corralejo

La Scarpetta Restaurant

La Scarpetta can be found just of the high street of Corralejo. At the roundabout turn left and head towards the shopping centre with the clock tower. Just inside, round the corner you will find this wonderful  restaurant.  La Scarpetta is the perfect venue for a special meal whether as a couple for a romantic meal or as a group who like something different.   Mario is the owner and he will greet you with a warm welcome.

The menu comes in two parts – the standard menu with pasta, chicken and fish dishes and the other part that is something a little bit different is Mario’s Specials of the day.  Make sure you are paying attention here as Mario will come to the table and describe the menu ( in various different languages!). He knows his food very well and will give a mouth watering description of how each dish is cooked and what it is served with.  A tip is to remember the ones you like as he goes along, otherwise Mario will finish talking and you will want everything on the menu.  His trick is to combine foods that you wouldn’t consider putting on the same plate – yet it works and makes for a great meal.

The wine choice in La Scarpetta is extensive and he is very knowledgeable about them, having travelled to other parts of Europe to buy them.  If you can make it to the sweet menu the fresh tiramisu is definitely worth trying before you make your way up to Flicks Bar for a fantastic night out……………

La Mamma Restaurant – Corralejo

La Mamma is a small intimate restaurant situated just off the high street in Corralejo. Hosted by the owner Gustavo and his daughter Consuela, it is a warm and friendly venue for a great meal.  La Mamma is undoubtedly one of the most consistently good quality restaurants in Corralejo and after numerous visits we can safely say we have never had a bad meal.

La Mamma is described as a Pizzeria however it really offers much more than the average Pizzeria. The choice of wine is good and compliments a fantastic menu. Aside from your pizza and pasta  (which is also delicious) they offer steaks that melt in your mouth with sauces that, their special taste cannot be matched anywhere else. They have dishes such as mushroom or steak vol a vents that as a starter or main course with chips that have to be tried, plus a variety of chicken and vegetarian dishes. There is something for every taste.

The deserts are also very tempting - an irresistible chocolate mousse, various crepes or simply just some strawberries and cream.

Now also open in the day La Mamma offers Corralejo a breakfast and lunch menu.  With the advantage of  WIFI it is also the perfect venue for any lunchtime meetings or just Internet browsing over a coffee and croissant.

So, as you are heading down the Corralejo High Street towards your evening out at Flicks Bar, and you ask yourself where to eat in Corralejo, stop off here for your evening meal at least one night. When you reach the roundabout look left and you’ll see a clock tower of the Big Ben shopping centre.  Walk up this road and you’ll find La Mamma on the right hand side. 

Have a great meal and we’ll see you later in Flicks….

Gibsons Restaurant – Corralejo

Gibson’s Restaurant can be found in the centre of Corralejo and we can confidently say that it is one of the best eating places for both locals and tourists.  The owners Caroline and Stephen Gibson can be seen bizzing about in there most days.

The menu is fantastic.  They have everything from authentic Indian curry,  Mexican fajitas and traditional fish and chips ( fish so big it doesn’t fit on the plate!!),  speciality chicken dishes and Stephens special Lasagne. Add to that an extensive vegetarian and vegan menu,  specially approved by Caroline who has been a vegetarian for over twenty years. 

 Stephen has been in the catering industry for over fifteen years and he has used that experience to create an extensive menu with something for everyone, all made daily using fresh produce.  There is so much choice on the menu and its all so lovely you’ll find it hard go somewhere else – you really could eat a different meal here every night of you holiday. You have to try it….

For those of you with a weak willpower you will not be able to resist finishing off your evening meal with one of their mouth-watering desserts ( Dime bar cake is a favorite!) or  alco-chocs, of which they have the best selection on the island.

You can find them just off the main high street opposite the Red Cross (Cruz Roja) – see the map for directions. They have an outside terrace and cater for everyone with smoking and non-smoking sections and high chairs for the kids.

Gibsons is a perfect place for your pre “Flicks Bar” evening meal.. We’ll see you after….
