Food & Drinks at The Beach Club Higuerón
The kitchen runs all day, covering breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. Croquettes are the crowd favourite, and small plates give you flexibility without committing to a full meal. Healthy options are available too. Chef Rafa has a habit of coming out personally to present dishes, a touch that guests notice and mention.
Cocktails lead the drinks menu, backed by a strong wine list and good coffee. Beer, spirits and soft drinks round out the bar. It's a solid setup for a long, leisurely afternoon in the sun.
