El Tintero II
El Tintero II
This place has a special recognition among places to eat “fried fish” in the city of Málaga. Here you can try the classical fried anchovies and inkwell, along with a varied menu that includes fried fish, grilled and seafood. What makes this restaurant a special place is that here the fish is “for auction”, the waiters go by announcing the dishes to the tables and diners are raising their hands to be their “award”. At the end of the meal, waiters charged them rations as dishes that are on the table. The restaurant is open all day, when the summer auction is done only during the day.
La Campana
La Campana
It is a small bar in the historic city center (Calle Granada, 35), near the Picasso Museum. While it has now become a touristic site, leaving behind the typical tavern with wine barrels, retains a good Malaga cuisine where you can eat seafood and fried fish at good prices. As the place is small and fills, you may have to wait but you can go about biting anchovies in vinegar in the bar with a sweet wine or a beer. And honoring the name of the bar, do not be surprised if you hear a bell while you’re eating: the sound made each time someone leaves a tip. Open every day except Sunday afternoon.
Cafeteria – Bar Mercado del Carmen

Of course, in this case there will be a proposal to wine lovers, they will not have much supply. But if that is what is anchovies, they can be found here in vinegar, fried or grilled. In addition, warmer weather can be enjoyed on the terrace overlooking the Church of Our Lady of Carmen. Open in market hours, Monday through Saturday at noon, but on Fridays and Saturdays they are also open at night.
