Hi guys,

We will be in Benidorm for Christmas day this year and I don't really want to leave it to chance if I can get a meal on the day. Can anyone please recommend somewhere good to book for a Christmas meal?

Thank you for your help.

I fear you may have left it a bit late now for booking a Christmas meal. I would imagine all the "good" restaurants are booked up. Maybe Chinese restaurants and that type of eateries will be open.

Certainly, as tebo says at this point of the year it would be all reserved by Christmas.

Just check with them all and put your name on the cancellation list, penny farthing near market is excellent, look on tripadvisor and check reviewers . The other year we went to Benidorm palace that was excellent food and entertainment, this year Iam taking suitcase full of food and making my own we will get the turkey from the butchers in the indoor market, just keep trying enjoy your your xmas in Benidorm.

We arrived late last year in Beni, we had a traditional Christmas lunch in the Corner Bar, it’s about 500 yards up from the Benidorm Palace on opposite side of road. No frills, but the food was good and quite reasonably priced. We booked late November. It was fine and I’d go back.

Do you have any details for the corner bar or anywhere else that may do Christmas lunch. I’m bringing my partner for his 60th (which is on Christmas Day) 

Can you imagine if we couldn’t get a meal 🤦‍♀️

Google ‘corner bar benidorm’ and you will get details.

Booking OK for a lot of months yet !


This is really a no frills place, absolutely fine and food was OK.

There is more upmarket restaurants in town, check tripadviser for others.
