It is located in the “Torre del Puerco”, right next to the Hideaway Hotel (formerly Barceló Hotel), and halfway to Coconovo Beach Bar. Let's say that it has become the revelation of summer 2020 in Chiclana de la Frontera. It is managed by a well-known hospitality group in the capital of Spain "azoteagrupo", which manages restaurants such as Azotea in the “Círculo de Bellas Artes” in Madrid.

The place was an old Civil Guard barracks, abandoned in the last 30 years, when it ceased to be a lookout post. More than 20 years ago it was used as a hostel for the Red Cross Youth summer camps in the province of Cádiz.

Its careful reform is striking, keeping intact the bases of what was the Civil Guard barracks, but especially its design, a work of art. It has a space for conferences and exhibitions, which is complemented by the rental of nautical equipment. But it really is a restaurant also used as a cocktail bar.

Its suitable cuisine stands out, although it could be better, surely the first stages of its initial steps, I recommend the grilled artichokes with payoyo cheese, exquisite, as well as the grilled octopus. It has a specific menu of dishes whose main base is tuna. Good rice dishes, highlighting the sweet one with red prawns. You will be surprised by the price of their dishes, but let's say that for the place it is worth it. Just one tip, don't order the shrimp small omelets, don't even think about it, nothing like what you would expect. 

What I would like to highlight are their desserts, spectacular, especially the cheese cake and the chocolate brownie with coffee ice cream. Do not forget to order it.

And I would also like to highlight their spectacular service, especially Giorgia, the waitress who served us. The price of the wines in the area is totally exorbitant, although the one we tried “Hacienda de Parrilla Alta” stands out, at a more or less affordable price.

As I was saying, the best part of this place is its enclave to enjoy its sunsets. At weekends you can enjoy their concerts on the terrace of the barracks.

And at the end of dinner, be sure to have a gin and tonic or one of their wonderful cocktails in the well-kept patio. The DJ's music stands out, creating a good vibe for everyone who visits this place.

Recommended place to visit.
