About the neighbourhood: Distrito Centro

Málaga's historic core, bounded by the Guadalmedina river to the west, the port to the south and the slopes of Mount Gibralfaro to the east. The district contains the Cathedral, the Roman Theatre, the Alcazaba fortress, the Picasso Museum and the Pompidou Centre, plus the main shopping street Calle Marqués de Larios. Inside Distrito Centro sit the well-known sub-areas of Centro Histórico, Soho, La Merced and Lagunillas. The area is almost entirely pedestrianised, served by Metro Atarazanas and the Málaga–Centro Alameda rail station.

Marcelo and Jose were amazing. They welcomed us with such genuine warmth and made us feel right at home. Even with language barriers, we were able to share conversations and connect, learning so much from their local perspective. A heartfelt thank you for such a wonderful experience — highly recommended, and definitely very gay-friendly!

An LGBT bar in the old town of Málaga. Next to the theatre, which is very central. Small yet cosy. The staff were friendly and the drinks were good. The prices are great. I highly recommend it. It's one of the few gay bars in Málaga since the majority of them are in toremonilos.

Very cute bar in Malaga. Made us feel right at home. Marcelo and Jose are incredible and made us feel like we were visiting old friends!

Great drinks, great conversations, and a great time.

We were in Malaga during the week and there were local events going on within the bar - book club and a cinema night/drag performances.

Overall an amazing experience! We can’t wait to be back to your wonderful bar and city :)

José was very friendly and welcoming, no doubt it’s a great place to recommend to have some drinks to start the night.

I love this place. Marcello and Jose make you feel incredibly welcome. They look after you.
I’ve been to Malaga twice now and I will be back again. I dream of having a lovely little bar like this in my home city.
Thank you as always for looking after me and making my stay in Malaga so enjoyable.
