2023 Christmas and New Year’s Eve -Restaurants & parties in the Costa del Sol

November 20, 2023

2023 Christmas and New Year’s Eve – It can be hard to find Restaurants open for Christmas and / or New Years in the Costa del Sol, or to know where the parties are happening. So, I did a compilation of what I heard about and found online that will be brightening those dates.

Notice that some open for dinner, others for lunch, others just for parties. 😉 Remember, if you want to book a special meal or party on Christmas 2023 or New Years, you must run – these places may be getting booked very soon. Don’t forget to book ahead. Now, let’s go straight to the point!

Benalmadena

Florence Café Benalmadena

Florence Café Benalmadena will be open on the 25th at lunch with a complete menu and plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, on top of the non-veggies. Good to compensate if you over-eat on the eve… They say you don’t need a reservation, but I wouldn’t risk it; also, on the reservation link below you can see more pictures of the menu and their whole menu. The vegetarian that I am feels hungry just from thinking about it.
