New People at The Red Rock Cafe
As part of the Olympus Group we have a small English style Pub down at the fishing village of Los Abrigos. The Red Rock Cafe was recently taken on by our old friend Mike Booth and his partner Marie.
The Red Rock is beautifully furnished and is very much in the style of a traditional English/Irish Pub but with a continental flavour and is well worth a visit. A unique feature of the Red Rock is its situation right by the sea. The Bar has fabulous sea views and looks right over the Red Rock at El Medano as you can see below. The Red Rock mountain (Montana Rojo in Spanish) is one of the first things that visitors to Tenerife see, as the airport runway goes right past it.
Los Abrigos is a fishing village about 15 minutes away from Playa De Las Americas and is famed for its Seafood restaurants. Many of our guests at Club Olympus use the restaurants in Los Abrigos then dive into the Red Rock for a “swifty” before they head back to the resort. If you need an excuse to get out for a drive and a change of scenery then visiting Los Abrigos and The Red Rock is a lovely start. Mike and Marie know many of our owners and guests after working with us at Club Olympus for a long time and will be delighted to see you.
You can get to Los Abrigos easily and cheaply by Taxi or if you have a hire car you simply drive on the TF-1 motorway towards the airport and come off at Las Chafiras (the junction before the airport), signposted “Los Abrigos, El Medano, San Miguel”. Follow the signs from the roundabout to Los Abrigos, go left at the Los Abrigos roundabout towards El Medano for about half a mile and look for Calle (street) La Marea on the right. The Red Rock Cafe is at the bottom of there - easy! Or just ask our on-site team at Garden City for directions.
We will putting more posts about The Red Rock and Los Abrigos generally in the near future.
Come and have a pint with Mike and Marie and we will see you there!
