In a town stuffed full of cafes serving the same food, Cafe Nomad is a real breath of fresh air. Delicious smoothies and gorgeous fresh food. We can highly recommend the avocado and poached eggs, the Dutch toast with eggs and cheese, the chicken and pesto rolls and the superb home made carrot cake and lime cheesecake! We look forward to seeing you again very soon ❤️

Brought my sister to cafe nomad for a birthday treat for afternoon tea they served on selected days and it didn’t disappoint .The platter was beautifully served and everything was homemade and delicious. My 3 year old son came with us and he really enjoyed it too the lovely waitress even brought him an extra piece of there homemade cake as he loved it so much . It was busy when we arrived but all the tables were distanced and the staff on were great and very attentive. I’ve been a few times for breakfast and would highly recommend anyone to try this lovely Cafe you won’t be disappointed x

Excellent! A great change from the usual Spanish breakfasts. When you're in dire need of vitamins and fibre this is the place - lovely yoghurt with fruit, porridge. A huge range of healthy options but it also has full English as an option.
Friendly service - slightly slow - I think this is because everything is freshly prepared so I was happy with the wait.

We ate breakfast here for the first time today. When we arrived it wasn't particularly busy and there was one cook and one waitress.
We were eventually asked for our order but our coffees took a while to arrive. We then had to wait 45 minutes more for our breakfast. Meanwhile another waitress came, literally, running in to be followed in succession by the apparent owner then another waitress.
Sunday has an open air market in the road behind this cafe, which presumably adds to the footfall but the major problem is the (open) kitchen, which seems to have room for just one cook. Two couples upped and left due, apparently, to the delay in being served, before reinforcements arrived.
Once the food came it was good. We both had the smashed avocado with poached egg on wholemeal bread (€5:90). The coffee was ok. The bill was incorrect.
We don't know how often it's this busy nor if there is ever more than one cook but unless you are prepared to take well over an hour for breakfast our advice is to weigh up the situation before you sit down.

Cute place considering Fuengirola only really has touristy restaurants. I got the green ocean açaí bowl which was good and my friend ordered the burger clásico which was not good. They did offer plant milk for coffee which was a plus and the prices were decent considering it was a cafe on the waterfront! The service was nice as well.

Very disappointed with Cafe Nomad, we booked a table for 10 for breakfast, told our friends where to go and a few days later they contacted us to say they could not cope with a table of 10, now we have to cancel with our friends. Obviously moving forward we will not be returning. I suggest you only go with a small party as clearly they cannot cope. There are many places in Fuengirola that can.

Good morning.
I am extremely sad to read this review.
When you originally booked your table for 10 people for Sunday the 23rd of June - one of my worker took your booking but mentioned that she will have to check with me first as I manage table reservations - Sundays being our busiest day.
From previous experience, customers feedback & due the fact we only work with fresh products - we have decided to limit large table reservations on Sundays as it puts great pressure on our ever so small kitchen. Having been in Nomad before I thought you would understand.
I would also like to add that although I did cancel your Sunday reservation - I did write in my message that we would be more than welcome you any other day - just not Sunday.
I really hope you can think about it all and consider deleting this review as it is really damaging for small businesses like ours. We did nothing wrong - only being honest with our limitations. Thank you

We have been here before. Their breakfast is particularly good. I didn't know that they are well equipped for take-away with bags, boxes and wooden cutlery. So when we found ourselves on the beach it was really easy to go in, order our lunch and then pick it up 20 minutes later. Portions were large and even in take-away mode, the presentation was good too. Staff excellent as always

Today we enjoyed the best Xmas lunch we had for years. Allthough the café is known for breakfastes and brunches they pulled off the most spectacular Xmas menu. Service top nodge as always, going miles for extra wishes. It made our Xmas 2020.

We enjoyed a splendid selection of goodies for the Valentine’s Brunch special from the three varied frittata cupcakes (yes, it’s Valentine’s so you have to share!) to the flower-carved strawberries and rose bud meringues! A lot of work had gone into this meal - it looked and tasted great. Thanks.

Came here for lunch on our first day in Fuengirola and couldn't wait to return. On first visit I had Nomad salad which is feta salad, warm mixed vegetables, humus and bread, lovely!! Hubbie had burger and chips which he said was very tasty. Today we visited again, not disappointed. I had scrambled eggs and feta on toast, hubbie had eggs Benedict, both were really tasty. If we had more days in Fuengirola then we would be back. Don't miss this lovely cafe.

Lovely cafe near the seafront. We visited for breakfast. Nice imaginative menu ,not your usual’greasy spoon’
We had poached eggs on sourdough, granola and fruit, one of us had croissant with jam.
Lots more on offer, for example, scrambled eggs with feta on toast, smashed avocado on toast and much more. We’ll be back.

Great menu here with lunch and snacks. I like that they have healthy options and can adapt to your liking. I had a greek salad without oil and my partner had a tomato bruschetta. They were really fresh and tasty. I think the smoothies are way over priced i would have loved to try them but not for 6 and 7 euros. Friendly staff and nice sun hits the terrace.

Cafe on the seafront, friendly service, good value for money, gluten free establishment. We had a delicious dish: on rye bread avocado pasted, topped with smoked salmon slices and a fried egg. I still dream of it.
