An Irish bar, now under Spanish management, Shannon is a great place to visit in the Altos del…read moreLimonar neighborhood and has been for years. If I spent enough time digging the archives I think I could find some pics of a younger drunk me taken here at least 10 years back :) Time flies but Shannon doesn't change much. For good. A bit worn interior adds to its charm. Now with live music the bar attracts people from other parts of Torrevieja. A friend told me yesterday he's going to perform here with his band soon, can't wait to see that. Definitely visit if you live close. "Beer! Because no great story started with someone eating salad" - they say. Cheers!

I was told by a friend (who sells stuff to plumbers) that ALL local plumbers dine here. Always. I…read morewas intrigued. If all plumbers find it best, isn't it worth a visit? Definetely yes! Got there and realized I'd passed by this place a few times before. Doesn't look like something special outside. Couldn't imagine this was a local culinary star. Popular among locals (all people were Spanish when I visited). Outdoor seating is on a tear (around 10 pm, early November), empty inside. Ordered grilled octopus, deep fried baby squids and house white wine. All just perfect! I'm sure I will be back soon to try other dishes they offer.

Because if not then you'd have to drive to Orihuela Costa every time you want to enjoy a guitar solo. Their website looks abandoned but the Facebook page is full of life, all events and other details here: https://www.facebook.com/elpasocafeteriabar/ Friday is a great day to go as they have jam sessions with all local superstars. Affordable prices, street parking usually available. Pool table. Come, buy beer, enjoy the music, repeat! ¡Reggaeton no pasará!

We ate here several times on our holiday. Very friendly with fairly standard pub grub burgers,…read moreroast chicken, curry which is all well cooked if not exceptional. The beers were very well kept so served beautifully cold and fresh. The staff, although occasionally forgetful, were so nice it's hard to say anything bad about them! They have regular Karaoke nights plus live music events too these tend to be set up just outside the front door, so if you want a quiet meal you'd best go somewhere else! All in all it's a great place albeit with a limited menu so if you want to go here regularly you will find the choice on the menu lacking depth.

Most people stand but there's also a small "VIP zone" with armchairs and sofas. Music ranges from recent Jennifer Lopez "Ni tú, ni yo" hits to oldies-goldies like Kool & The Gang's "Celebration" and anything in between. The bar has a reputation of a place for the over 40 crowd, however there were many teens too. I was later told they couldn't get into other packed bars. Beer €2.50, cocktails €7.
