Fantastic experience:
Antonio és muy buena persona, té ries mucho con el, el xiringuito està en un sitio precioso, frente al mar, con la bebida té entra una tapa de bocadillo con jamon con el pan tostadito por la plancha, un detalle que no sueles encontrar a otros sitios. camareros algo despistados però en fin, merece la pena pasar allí un ratito. Comida aceptable.

Positive experience: Stopped by for beer and tapas on a cool sunny day. Great service, average quality munchies at a decent price, and nice view of the Med. We have stopped by several times on cigarette runs to Spain and this is a good alternative to several ocean front restaurents along the cove. Will be back.
Fantastic experience:
Ce restaurant est comme un relais routier. Pas de menus, mais un choix complet de plats variés.
Peux être que pour les desserts, le choix est moins étoffé. Mais l'essentiel est là, et c'est bon et la vue sur la petite baie est juste magnifique...
Translated from French
Positive experience: Het eten is OK maar veel te prijzig. Geen aanrader of je moet de sfeer van Andalucía een beetje willen proeven
Positive experience:
Las vistas son espectaculares,la atención depende quien te atienda la comida no está mal, no tienen mucho cuidado con la limpieza siempre está sucio y todas sus servilletas terminan en la playa y eso es una pena, tendrían que tener más cuidado

Increíble chiringuito situado en un entorno maravilloso. Tapas variadas y cerveza Estrella de Galicia. Vistas de ensueño y música muy agradable.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
No ha sido una experiencia agradable. Entramos con la idea de cenar pero primero probamos a pedir unos calamares a ver...... La mesa estaba muy pringosa, pegajosa, los sillones también. Los camareros no se enteraban de nada además de no ir vestidos para la ocasión. Los calamares estaban salados y no muy bien fritos. Y lo peor fue el precio, un platito de calamares, 7 cañas y 1 botella de agua, 33€. Nos fuimos con muy mala sensación y defraudados.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Petite guinguette bien placée devant la plage, donc belle vue, nous sommes venus assez tard vers 15-16h pour grignoter quelques tapas évidemment. Malheureusement les prix un peu excessif et la cuisine moyenne nous ont refroidis. Le bon côté sont les serveurs accueillant, certains parlent français et sont très compréhensifs et donc le cadre agréable.

Autant le patron que le personnel est vraiment gentil ! Vous commandez un café ou une boisson en dehors des repas qu ils vous offrent des tapas ! C est pas un restaurant de luxe c est aussi un bar et les pleureurs allez voir si en France ça existe ça !?

Positive experience:
Lugar ideal para moteros, para refrescarte un poco con parquin para motos al lado
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience: Nice place for a quick stop and drink. We were not the only gay in the village! We did not know the bar was a gay friendly bar so we were a bit surprised in the good way. The food is not very good and the name of tapa’s not worthy. The atmosphere and the friendly staff made up for the food
Positive experience:
Plats simples mais très copieux. En bord de mer, un peu trop de fumeurs à notre goût, même en salle. Dommage.

Belle terrasse pour lézarder au soleil presque les pieds dans l'eau tout en gardant un œil sur sa bécane.

Fantastic experience:
La atención que recibimos en este lugar fue increíble. No tenían demasiadas opciones vegetarianas pero la dueña del Chiringuito no dudó en hacerme algo expresamente fuera de la carta. La atención fue excelente. Super simpática y amable. La localización es inmejorable, casi en la orilla de la playa. Y la relación calidad precio excelente. Todo estaba buenísimo y en muy poco tiempo listo en la mesa. Repetiremos sin duda porque nos dio la sensación de haber ido a comer a casa de un familiar. Magnifico

A place with a unique personality. Wonderful views and a good selection of tapas. It's easy to feel like family. Antonio, the owner, conveys an invaluable warmth.

Positive experience:
The fish is very good, especially the sardines and fried anchovies. Perfect location next to the beach.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Nice for having a drink after a swim, but that's it, don’t expect smiles or friendliness. Consumption is not expensive and the view is very beautiful nonetheless.

Positive experience:
Abbiamo ordinato e il cibo è arrivato subito. Cibo buono ma il bagno lascia desiderare. Per una fermata veloce non è male
Translated from Italiano
Positive experience: Food was rather subpart and expensive, oily salty chipirones for 15€?! Had to hear the waiters having an argument, and our waiter told us to wait to be able to pay when there was no one else around.

Après une journée à la plage un petit encas très bon service vu imprenable à ne pas louper à Port-Bou.

Great place! Very friendly, they serve good tapas and the staff is very pleasant in Spanish and French!

Fantastic experience: Super food in a super location right by the beach.
Fantastic experience:
Good beach bar in front of the beach with tables both covered and uncovered, for shade. Typical prices of a fast bar near the coast. As a point to improve, (1) we saw two fried spiders embedded in the bravas that surprised us but didn't bother us at all although the kitchen cleanliness should be improved, (2) if there's no spicy sauce available, in my opinion, they should just put regular ketchup instead of spicy. The service was good and the location excellent.

Positive experience: Simple laid back beach restaurant with terrace. We stopped here on our way to Zaragoza, had some tapas and drinks. The octopus was very tasty but a little bit pricey. The patatas bravas were really good with a tasty sauce next to them. Service was fast and friendly.
Positive experience: A cute little tapas bar right next to the seaside, with a sunny terrace, good food and drinks. If you are in the area and want to enjoy some nice views alongside your food it’s a good place to stop.
Fantastic experience:
Just perfect! Abundant and very good tapas! Very large and good plate of serrano ham, the same goes for the cuttlefish and the ribeye! Go with your eyes closed! Unbeatable quality/price ratio!

Fantastic experience:
One of the places we go to even on Tramontane days because the tables are sheltered from the wind. You can have a snack or a meal with tapas on the terrace even in the middle of winter: the sun warms us up. A menu like everywhere else, but with a privileged display and view. Jordi and the young waitress are very friendly... A feeling of vacation!
Translated from French
Fantastic experience:
It was cold this noon, and what a pleasure to burn my fingers on a fried anchovy!! Delicious cod dish, lamb ribs generously served, in short, a delight at a sweet price. Warm welcome and we left with a bottle of cava!! Thank you!
Translated from French
Positive experience:
The chiringuito del Campaner at Portbou beach has very beautiful views of the beach. The covered terrace is very welcome when the wind blows, and finding an open place at this time in an eminently tourist area is also much appreciated.
They have traditional tapas and varied sandwiches, they have a dish of the day and I would say a menu.
I ordered a traditional ham sandwich and a glass of red wine to accompany it.
The sandwich was delicious and slightly grilled to serve it hot but not exaggerated. PERFECT.
Friendly and quick service. I felt very comfortable. Thank you

Super beach hut by the beach. Tony will make you his extraordinary tomato bread. And the rest of the dishes are great too. And here we are again in 2022, everything has improved, the setting, the prices, but the menu remains unchanged. Awesome.
Translated from French
Fantastic experience: Was here off season - one of the few places open in town. Lively, with lots of locals. This meant the place didn't feel like a tourist trap. Ate there two days in a row. Food was very good/delicious without being pretentious. Staff friendly to a fault. Couldn't ask for a warmer welcome.
Fantastic experience:
Rich and the people are very friendly.

Very beautiful location with a view of the sea! The prices of the tapas are somewhat high in comparison, but you can always get a drink at the Xiringuito and enjoy the view.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
The best beach bar in the area. For a beer, they offer you a free tapa of Iberian ham, serrano, anchovies, whatever you ask for. If you pass through Portbou, stop at the Campanero beach bar (guingueta). The owner is humble, from head to toe.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
The best coffee in all of Portbou ... Good for my taste, good service from the staff both during the day and at night. It's always very busy but they still attend to you. It's always a pleasure to have coffee and enjoy a beer along with some snacks.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
All the tapas we had were very good and especially the paella was good and affordable. No problem speaking Spanish or Catalan as claimed in another comment. It's worth it.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Facing the beach, this little eatery is simple and very pleasant, you feel at ease. Although the owner may seem rough at first and speaks in a loud voice, you quickly realize that he is very welcoming and quite friendly. The prices are more than reasonable. I recommend this place for all types of snacks between beach swims.

I didn't know the place. When I asked if I could have lunch, they offered me paella. One of the best paellas I've had. They will see me again.

Having a coffee at 8 a.m. here, ufff!!!
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
An anthology breakfast! First stop in Spain heading to the house of Dalí, here we are sitting in this café, facing the sea. The owner is a character who, although at first seems a bit 'rough', ends up revealing an uncommon kindness. Indeed, we ordered two milky coffees (€4), so far so good, but we dared to ask for bread with tomato... and why not with ham and cheese, adds the owner! No problem, we were in front of the beautiful spectacle of the sea and we had our coffees. Then the owner brings us a beautiful plate of toasted bread, with tomato and generously topped with ham. What a delight, and moreover, it was offered to us! Thank you, sir, for your generosity, we had an excellent time with you, accompanied by a fabulous playlist.

Fantastic experience:
Very good quality, very reasonable prices and friendly and efficient service. The view in front of the cove of Portbou is spectacular and wonderful.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
It's the best location in Portbou. Great for having a beer (2.5 for a half), a sangria, or a mojito (7 euros, very good). However, I do not recommend it for food! I find it expensive (small fried fish for 10 euros barely serves 2 people, and nothing else is under 10 euros), and it doesn't seem very fresh. It's a shame! Otherwise, the staff is nice, and there's always music. Relaxed atmosphere for late morning or late afternoon.
Translated from French
Fantastic experience:
It’s not a great restaurant, but it’s a safe bet for rushed evenings!!! It’s good, it’s not just tapas and especially it really helps when everything is closed on the French side!!!! Family atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable.

Very attentive, friendly, and nice staff. On the first line of the beach. Medium 2.5€, varied tapas. I don't give it the 5th star because the prices are outrageous. Gay friendly.

Emblematic. Located in one of the best spots to view the whole beach. Variety of seafood products on the menu. Good service from the staff and quick service. Restrooms are well-maintained and clean.

Coming back every day one, two, and three times means it's one of the best. That there is in this town location by the sea. About 20 meters to see or watch the sunset. Unmatched place. And to have drinks and some tapas. Freshly made by the great ANTONIO. He deserves a wave like the ones that don't exist on this paradise beach with crystal clear and calm water. If you come to Portbou, it's a must-stop. You'll tell me later.

I was gifted some jamon (ham), (I gave a cute little dog some), the lads at the bar didn’t accept my payment as they knew I’d be here a while.
