Yelpers tell me if I must retire from yelping right now. I'm giving away 5 stars based on a 2 minutes visit to a restaurant (no food or drinks ordered). I call this intuition. Once again I found myself in a situation when my heart told me "stay here for at least two hours and twenty five minutes" but my duties called to me. Loud. And I left :( What I managed to notice in 2 minutes: 1) The name. Looks really weird. 2) The business is seafront, with outdoors seating, views to the beach and the "mountain of Altea". 3) There was going to be live music! I only heard the musicians tuning up and the drummer drumming for a minute. Enough. I'm sure the rest of the evening was awesome. 4) A lovely bunch of people drinking beer. I don't remember when I was disappointed so much having to leave at that moment. What I found afterwards. I checked them on the internet and all they have is the Facebook page created for them by Facebook (!) and the Google Maps listing created for them by Google (!). The owners didn't even bother to claim those pages. This is a very intriguing place :))) Now they have a Yelp listing too. The name is in Dutch and it means "The Harbour Cafe". I believe the music is only on Wednesdays. All in all - I need, must and will come back no matter what. On a Wednesday. read more
