Mia Café

Marbella


Tucked into a pretty old town square, this friendly newcomer wins accolades for its reasonably priced homemade tapas (six for €10), including vegan, veggie and gluten-free options. Grab a spot at a little tile-topped table and linger over salads, mini-burgers, spinach-laden tortilla española and glasses of wine, enhanced by prime people watching in the heart of Marbella's pedestrian zone.
