The 45 restaurants of Alcossebre, by area

Atalaya, on Camí l’Atall next to the marina, is the only restaurant on the whole Castellón coast with a Michelin star: it won it in 2021 and has kept it since. It is run by Alejandra Herrador and Emanuel Carlucci, who also have Vermuda as the informal version of the same cooking, at friendlier prices.

El Pinar, on Calle Islas Mancolibre, has been going for over thirty years and holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, with its tables on a raised spot above the sea. And Taberna Pikapote, opened in 2010 by a Basque chef in love with the Mediterranean, is a Basque-Mediterranean tavern and rice house, and one of the best rated in town.

If you want to understand the local cooking before choosing — the rice dishes, the market fish, the beach chiringuitos — start with the food guide.

The densest cluster of restaurants: the marina units, the Las Fuentes beachfront and the developments behind it. This is where people dine late and where there is still life in September.

In July and August you need to book, especially on the seafront and on fiesta weekends. Out of season the problem is the opposite: many close or cut back their days, so call before turning up. The off-season guide explains what stays open from October to May.

The contact details are the ones published on each restaurant's own page. Menus, opening hours and phone numbers change: if you find something out of date, or a place that no longer exists, tell us and we will fix it — as we did when we removed the ones that have closed.

And if you come during the fiestas, the Alcossebre agenda has the communal paellas, the Tapa Route and the Cocktail Tour, which are the other way of eating in town.
