Benidorm stag weekends

You can find pretty much anything you like in this melting pot city. If you’re hankering for some good authentic Spanish fare, then head to the likes of Bar Sant Jaume, where you’ll find every type of tapas you can imagine and a drinks list as long as your arm.

You’ll be wanting to pop into Tasca y Basta for the meatballs alone. They serve homemade fare, and the type of patatas bravas that can rectify even the messiest of nights – piping hot and doused in a delicious garlicky mayonnaise.

For steaks and burgers, it has to be The Grill House where you’ll find big smoky flavours and burgers the size of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s biceps. If you’re feeling brave, double up with two 200g burgers, served with all the trimmings, thick cut chips and coleslaw.

Northern Sole, tucked down a cobbled street in Old Town, serves up the type of drool-inducing, satisfyingly salty fare that’ll cure your hangover in just one whiff. The burgers here are massive, with unusual toppings like pulled pork, onion bhaji, and even curry burgers served in naan bread. The fish and chips are notorious, better than your Northern grandma used to make.

Manage your stamina with late-night pizzas or burgers. Llevatelo’s pizzas and Snack Bar Mariano's are both safe options.

There are over 2000 bars in Benidorm so saying that you’ll be spoilt for choice is a bit of an understatement. Hit the street called Calle Gerona, which is chock-full of great bars and everyone’s generally in a great, sloshed mood. You’ll find club promoters dotted up and down this street and, if you play nice, they’ll sort you out with all kinds of drinks deals.

If you’re taking your Spanish stag fiesta to new heights (literally) then Amigo’s Restaurant and Roof Terrace is a great option. You can book out the upstairs and enjoy perks like unlimited Sangria, your own playlist, and a private chef and waiter. Not too shabby, eh?

As you walk around the city one bar name will just keep cropping up. That name is Stardust. It’s one of those places you can’t leave Benidorm without seeing. It’s friendly. It’s always rammed. It’s always awesome. Pull up a spot on the cosy wooden table at the back and watch as the cheesy tunes turn into a full-on strip show. You’ll never want to leave.

Grab yourself a bucket of beer at The Red Lion before heading down to Aloha Beach Bar. Whilst "fruity drinks under tiki huts" might not be the first image that comes to mind when you think "stag do”, you have to make the exception for this place.

Aloha Beach Bar has everything you need for an epic night – free flowing booze, pretty girls, beach front location. A note to the wise though – it does tend to get rowdy in the later hours. Make sure you stay out of trouble. A bachelor party spent in Benidorm? Hell yes. A bachelor party spent in a Benidorm jail? Hell no.

If you fancy seeing a bit of Spanish culture whilst on your trip, then Old Town is the place to go. Spend some time checking out the traditional Spanish shops and restaurants that line the narrow-cobbled alleys. If you’re in the mood for some authentically Spanish food, head to Poniente, where there’s a quiet beach and a port where you can jet-ski. Then you’ve got Levante. This place needs no introduction – it’s where the carnage happens and where happy hour never seems to end. You’ll know it when you see it. Whatever stag activities you fancy, these three places have got you covered.
