Candela is the latest occupant of the premises between the San Fernando vet and restaurant Jacky. Always a difficult location due to the nearby competition from the likes of Sevillano, La Bodeguilla and Los Pescaitos, all excellent tapas bars.
De Heksenketel/Carpe Diem
De Heksenketel on avenida Mediterraneo (sandwiched between La Fabrica and Las Niñas) only lasted a relatively short time, Carpe Diem now the name on the front.

Centurion
Another new bar will be opening shortly on the Plaza Balcon de Europa, work currently going on in the interior. The bar occupies the small premises previously home to Helle Hollis car rental amongst others. The new bar is called Centurion.
Leyland bar
With calle Antonio Millón in a bit of a state of upheaval at the moment, to say the least, a good time to do a bit of renovating. The Leyland bar is undergoing refurbishment. Whether it will still be Leyland or has changed hands is not clear at the moment.
The Andrea Inn
The Andrea Inn, a nice, friendly tapas bar on calle Jaén has changed hands and without closing in the process. Marianne and Freddy have moved on to a new project, but more about that later.
New cocktail bar and restaurant
A new cocktail bar and restaurant opening up on the Plaza Balcon de Europa in the centre of town.
Numero Seis now open
Numero Seis, the former Jardin Dada, on calle Chaparil is now open for business and still with the lovely garden terrace.
Victoria
The Victoria bar on calle Chaparil has been up for sale/rent for a long time now so no surprise to see it like this.
