The culture of brunch, that mix between breakfast and lunch, from the English breakfast + lunch (yes, the same word has been adopted in Spanish), has become very fashionable in recent years and enjoying a brunch in Tenerife is an excellent option for the weekend. For this reason, this list includes places from different parts of the island where you can enjoy a brunch in Tenerife.
Brunch in the north of Tenerife
Mirador San Pedro, Los Realejos
There are many brunch places in Tenerife that have become famous over time, including the Mirador San Pedro, in Los Realejos, a restaurant that offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, in a space with sea views. And who can resist, with this wonderful landscape of the north of Tenerife and a brunch, with bao bread, scrambled shrimp, homemade jam or artisan cookies.
Mostaza Beer, Icod de los Vinos
On weekends, Mostaza Beer, in Icod de los Vinos, offers delicious brunch that can be enjoyed on its terrace. They have a savoury, sweet or mixed brunch, with scrambled eggs, nachos with guacamole, waffles or yogurt with cereals, for all palates. Its original presentation also stands out, as can be seen in some of the opinions that its most satisfied customers have left on Google.
Tasca Sansofé, La Orotava
La Tasca Sansofé is characterized by using local and fresh ingredients. Their brunch includes sponge cake and house pastries, fig jam and scrambled egg timbale, among other things. They also have a vegetarian brunch and one for children. The name of this tavern has a curious origin, since it comes from a Guanche greeting, because when they entered the houses or caves they greeted saying 'Tamaragua' and answered 'Sansofí', which led to 'Sansofé' and that means 'here comes the guest', and the response, 'be welcome'.
Café de Manuela, Ravelo
It is a cafeteria located in the Ravelo area, belonging to El Sauzal. It has a large terrace with views of Mount Teide and part of the island, which favours the request for one of the best brunches in Tenerife. With a delicate and detailed decoration, El Café de Manuela incorporates in this meal an assortment of artisan breads, a bowl of natural yogurt, tortillas, salads and even a glass of cava. A place that is even more special if live music plays in the background.
Casa del Vino, El Sauzal
The Casa del Vino is an emblem of the island located in the Tenerife town of El Sauzal, which supports the local produce of Tenerife farmers and producers and offers a wide range of wines from Tenerife. In a pleasant atmosphere, between the museum and the shop, is the restaurant with its terrace, from which there is an unbeatable panoramic view. They have also opted for brunch, which includes, of course, a glass of local wine.
Bollullo Beach, La Orotava
It is located on the coast of La Orotava and from its terrace you can take incredible photos of one of the most spectacular wild black sand beaches, typical of volcanic origin, in the archipelago, Bollullo Beach. Tasting a brunch in Tenerife with these views makes the artisan breads, the fruit or the scrambled eggs that make it up have more flavour. And, if the weather and the sea allow it, ending the day with a swim in the northern waters would be the ideal finishing touch for a Sunday afternoon.
Terrazas del Sauzal
Following the line of taste for northern views, we arrive at the popular Terrazas del Sauzal, located in a privileged setting on the island. It could be crowned one of the most Instagrammable brunches in Tenerife thanks to the spectacular scenery, including Mount Teide in the background, that this establishment has. Its offer includes dishes such as the Canarian toast with chorizo palmero or the smoked salmon tartlet, accompanied by cava, natural juice, tea or coffee.
