Hi Caroline,
We have a holiday home in Alicante city. We're not British ( Irish) but understand how nice it is to chat with people in English.
We do not live in Spain full time but have met some lovely people in Alicante from USA, England, Sweden, France, Vienna and Canada for starters!!
Perhaps try joining a group called Internations.org. Dinners, coffee mornings etc ..That is how we met most people.
Then someone told us that most English speakers meet at Austins Bar just off Rambla towards Oldtown.
Also I know a few people from Alicante Activities on FB. I will look into their autumn schedule when we return back there late September.
Yes the pandemic has stunted plans for everyone but keep trying. Alicante has a lot going for it but like most cities it can be difficult at first to get to know people.
Best wishes and hopefully you will start meeting more people soon.
Regards
Maria
