1. Ducí Cafetería Pastelería Heladería Artesanal - Av. Maritima, 33, Local 13, 38530 Candelaria, Santa Cruz de Tenerife
4,5/5,0 Google reviews
We visited this coffee bar during our trip to Santa Cruz de Tenerife. In this coffee bar, you can not only enjoy delicious cappuccino but also indulge in the tastiest Italian treats. From Nutella croissants to a sugar-coated donut with pistachio filling. The food and drinks are quickly brought to your table by friendly staff who speak good English. For 2 cappuccinos, 2 sweets, and a bottle of water, you pay 10.20 euros.
2. Calma Balkan Cuisine - calle Alemania 5 C.C. Patio Canario, Local 1, 38660, Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Calma Balkan Cuisine was truly our favorite restaurant of the entire vacation. Not only because the restaurant was just a few minutes' walk from our accommodation, but mainly because the Balkan cuisine was absolutely delicious. The staff was extremely friendly, and the view from the restaurant was breathtaking. Live music is often present, creating a lively atmosphere. Although we could walk to the restaurant, we noticed that parking spaces were often limited. Keep that in mind.
There is enough seating on the outdoor terrace, and if you make a reservation, they will place you on the side with a magnificent view. If it gets too warm or the sun is too bright, they can close the shutters for you.
We ordered the tapas mix (highly recommended!), 2 main courses, and 2 desserts. We also ordered a bottle of wine and a bottle of sparkling water, totaling 110 euros. Additionally, we received complimentary flatbread during the meal and limoncello shots after. All in all, a truly perfect restaurant.

Restaurant Almar was also one of our favorite restaurants in Tenerife. It's a bit more expensive than the average restaurant there, but definitely worth it. The restaurant has a beautiful view of the ocean and is nicely decorated inside. The staff is again super friendly and proficient in English. The food is delivered quickly and beautifully presented after ordering. We ordered 3 starters, 2 main courses, 2 desserts, a liter of Sangria with cava, and a bottle of sparkling water, all for a total price of 150 euros.
There was a small downside that evening, and that was the neighbors' parrots making a lot of noise. Fortunately, they stopped as it got darker. I don't know if those parrots are always there.
