Having tried other cafes for a good breakfast our search continued, and we decided to go upmarket. The Hotel Balcón de Europa is the quality hotel right in the centre of Nerja. It has the location and style, and prices to suit. The caféteria has a shaded patio area down the side of the hotel bordering the Balcón de Europa itself. It is a lovely spot, very civilized and comfortable, with lovely sea views. The waiter attended within a minute of taking our seats, and we ordered two teas and a latte coffee. We studied the breakfast menu and my Partner and I chose the “Healthy Breakfast” which was natural yoghurt with cereal, red fruit and nuts. Like other breakfasts, we have had here in Nerja the yoghurt was not creamy or thick as we have enjoyed with really inexpensive supermarket fat free yogurt we enjoy at home. My Son had a bacon roll which he really enjoyed. The tea was not as good as we hoped; it was a blend which, we believe, contains a scented tea like Earl Grey (which we both find doesn’t suit us) and it was just not strong enough for our tastes. My Son’s latte was enjoyed. We received excellent and obviously properly trained service from our young waiter. Our second visit here on this holiday was our last morning on the day we flew home. We again breakfasted here (my Partner’s choice). This caféteria is quite posh, civilized and everything is ‘done properly’, it has some the best views here in the town, and it is re-assumingly moderately-expensive. Again the service was impeccable, and this time we ordered Americano coffees, with hot milk, for two, and a cappuccino for my Son. My Partner and I chose toast, and my Son chose a bacon and cheese roll. Everything was as it should be, efficient and pleasant service, and the food and drinks were very good. Civilized service a hallmark here, and it’s always a pleasure to viist.
Excellent
