Excelentes desayunos con bocadillos y sandwiches, muy bien preparados, muy ricos y bien servidos. Camarero atento y amable y bien de precio. Todavía recuerdo lo rico que estaba el zumo y el café. Tiene fama para la cena por sus hamburguesas

Little, local cafe bar in residential area. Nice bocadillos but a little more expensive for drinks that other local cafe bars. Terrace is good addition.

A must-go for all digital nomads. Located near one of the best co-working spaces in the Canary Islands, this bar offers a comfy and cosy place, in one of the most pittoresque streets of Santa Cruz, to enjoy a Thursday-afterwork beer, paired with shots of liquor at the lowest prices in the area. The owner is very nice and welcoming, and the local crowd always smiling and energetic. Feel free to show up if you want to enjoy the full Tenerife experience !

Don Pillito is a bit like home when you arrive in Santa Cruz. The owner is welcoming, warm and very kind. Drinks are inexpensive and the ambiance is perfect. The food is excellent, I recommend their wonderful American sandwich. In addition, the small terrace is the best place to have a drink with friends. What more ?

we were here at night after a long day of walking in the city, the food was ok, we liked the place because the service was very friendly, the music was cool (rock music) and you get a glimpse at the vibe of the neighbourhood

Live like a local! Great locals bar at the top of Santa Cruz, Join the locals playing dominos or just relax on the small terrace. Take a bocadillo from the owner, it will be made with a lot of love and care. Even has a friendly pub dog, who's there most nights.

Best REAL DEAL down-to-Earth cafè in Santa Cruz the Tenerife. Come for the REAL DEAL feeling, stay for the amazing bocadillos and to watch the old guys play Domino. Ask for a Pepito steak sandwich and a Dorada Especial and finish with a nice espresso. Be sure to leave a tip, as the prices are criminally low for what you'll get, including the owner's unrivaled professionalism.
