Ana La Fantástica

What a delightful bakery and specialty café in Málaga! It's conveniently located just across the main road from the charming old town. I really enjoyed the iced latte, and the chocolate cake with orange filling was simply wonderful. The prices were quite reasonable too. I’m so grateful to my local friend for introducing me to this lovely spot!

So lucky to have a true sourdough bread place around here, we struggle to find good bread in Southern Spain and this is where we normally buy ours, our top preferences, the olives one, cea, semillas and from the pastry, definitely the almond croissant (the rest are too sweet to my taste) and the torrija when in season. I also recommend having breakfast or lunch here, their eggs are definitely the most free range around here.

We went here trying to expand our breakfast and brunch options. We have a very clear go to, but realize we have to diversify.

This place was solid!

We got two oat lattes, a salmon toast and pistachio croissant. They were all solid, specifics to follow.

Oat Lattes - this was decent. We’re pretty pick, there are a couple shops that use Oatly which just flat out has the best flavor, consistency for oat milk in Spain. Ana doesn’t and it shows. It was terrible and we’d certainly drink it again - but if we’re looking for a straight coffee fix, this would be a convenience choice.

Salmon Toast - very tasty, but for the price vs other options in the area, a little higher for less salmon and less other items on the toast. Again, enjoyable and if we didn’t have anything to compare to we’d have no additional comments.

Croissant- this was the star of the show for us. Super tasty, generous pistachio butter and not overly sweet. It was a great way to finish off our breakfast.

Other things to note, tons of breads, cakes and other pastries. So we’d definitely come back to try those.

Place is super cute and tucked away right on the perimeter of the Center. So a good mix of local and tourist traffic while not being overly crowded. We could sit and enjoy convo and take our time with breakfast.

The service was great - attentive, helpful and patient. Overall great experience.

German breakfast and poached eggs. Good food quality and enough portions to get full.
There was too much noise when we visited. For breakfast there are too many customers and too much noise.

The best breakfast spot in Málaga! The ambience is really nice, the bread is amazing, and the portions are generous. The staff are super friendly, and they offer a great variety of bakery items, breakfast plates, and drinks. Highly recommended!
