Over 35 years of history and just a few meters from the beach: these are some of the best sandwiches in Málaga:

Talking about camperos, serranitos, pepitos, or, in short, sandwiches in Fuengirola, is talking about La Casa del Bocadillo. Located at number 17 of Plaza de la Constitución, right in the historic center, a few meters from the beach and one of the best promenades in Spain, is one of those establishments that have conquered the taste buds of entire generations. La Casa del Bocadillo, founded in 1989, has turned its small corner into a true gastronomic symbol of the Costa del Sol. Just a five-minute walk from the beach and with a terrace that invites you to savor the Malaga coast, this family business has turned sandwich making into its art, harvesting success reflected in both daily attendance and the accolades received.

Its uniqueness has been endorsed by the Guía Repsol itself, which has awarded it one of its coveted Soletes, a distinction that on this occasion was presented by the country's most prominent chefs and which, in this case, rewards the authenticity of a menu where variety and flavor rule. "The wide variety of sandwiches, their flavor, and the good practices of the house are reasons enough to visit this place," according to Diego Gallegos, holder of two Repsol Suns, a Michelin Star, and a Michelin Green Star at his restaurant Sollo. No joke...

600 sandwiches a day

The formula for success seems simple, but it is not: quality ingredients, a broad menu, and the experience of a team that has been refining every detail for decades. On the busiest days, La Casa del Bocadillo prepares up to 600 units, always maintaining the same level of flavor and consistency. The lines that form at its door, both at lunch and dinner time, are the best proof of the loyalty of a clientele that includes both regular locals and curious tourists.

Part of the charm of this place also lies in its history, a classic in the area with sandwiches that have marked the life of any Fuengirola resident. Its terrace, ideal for hot days, allows pets, making it a comfortable option for families and groups of friends. The establishment is open every day during the summer hours, from 13:00 to 17:00 and from 20:00 to 00:00, allowing for both lunch and late dinners.

A menu with more than 20 different options

The gastronomic offering of La Casa del Bocadillo goes far beyond the classics. Among its best-known proposals are the Spanish omelette sandwich, the serrano ham with tomato and virgin olive oil, the bacon sandwich, and the tuna with mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. But the crown jewel, as highlighted by numerous reviews, is the Serranito de secreto ibérico, a tasty and hearty combination that includes pepper, serrano ham, and dressing.

Additionally, the menu includes options like kebabs, pork grills, crests, chicken skewers, cheeseburgers, mixed sandwiches, and hot dogs. To accompany, diners can choose from fries with or without sauce, with the option to add extras like cheese, bacon, or ham. All this at a very affordable average price, around 10 euros per person.
