The best bar in Alicante! The drinks are well made, the service is fantastic and the staff is both sweet and hot! Prices are reasonable, and there is something going on here every night of the week (trivia, jazz jam, LGBT mixers, etc). Everyone’s welcome!

Mala Mama has quickly become one of my favourite spots in Alicante's casco antiguo. I've been twice now and both times the atmosphere has been absolutely electric, warm, welcoming, and full of good energy. The cocktails are excellent, the service is fast and genuinely friendly, and the decor strikes that rare balance between chic and cosy. The live music takes it to another level entirely. Clarity and the team have created something really special here. It feels like a place the city has been waiting for. Whether you're kicking off a night out or just settling in with good company, Mala Mama delivers every time. We will be going back for their jazz night as well as their supper club event. Highly recommend.
