La Bandideta

Cala de la Granadella, undoubtedly one of the most incredible and spectacular corners of our country, only lacked a great beach bar. That is why in the summer of 2020 La Bandideta was born, the first little sister of Cala Bandida. La Bandideta is a wonderful X on the map of Xàbia, the treasure that is worth finding, but also a strong commitment to flavor and special moments. The wood-fired oven, which gives her dishes so much personality, is one of her secrets to her success. Nature, relaxation, a perfect climate and all the flavors of the best Mediterranean cuisine. In La Bandideta you can enjoy a unique environment without filters and a menu with delicious bites that connect the visitor with the essence of Xàbia. If the weather is good, La Bandideta is undoubtedly the best option. Its position is very clear: #OpensWithSun, every day of the year. In addition, he has won a Repsol sole.
