Eating out doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to overindulge in carb-fuelled and unhealthy dishes. Likewise, healthy eating doesn’t have to be dull, at least not in Marbella. Living an active and healthy lifestyle is something that is part of the appeal of living in or relocating to Marbella; there are many fresh, organic and healthy eateries located around the area offering something to satisfy every pallet, from the gym junkie, vegetarian and vegan to those with specific dietary requirements. We have put together a list of some of our favourite restaurants in Marbella, which recognise the importance of a healthy and organic balanced diet.
Celicioso
Catering to those with an intolerance to gluten, Celicioso, located on Marbella’s Golden Mile, is Marbella’s first gluten-free bakery and restaurant offering everything from healthy breakfast options to winter warming lunches, cakes, cookies and bread—which are available to eat at the restaurant or take away. The stylish terrace makes for the perfect place for those who are looking for a relaxing outdoor venue to sit back and enjoy a lazy afternoon with friends, while watching the world go by on Marbella’s renowned Golden Mile. It is really cozy to stay here. The cakes are so good that you will know they used premium ingredients, and the serving is so generous. Baking really needs an accurate measurement that requires a portable or compact scale. Visit a site like Certified Scale for more options to choose from.
Organic Food & Market
Also on the Golden Mile, Organic Food & Market offers a wide selection of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options within a vibrant environment. The restaurant also boasts a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, available to take away, all of which have been sourced locally.
Rachel’s
From refreshing smoothies and relaxing teas to fresh fruit platters, gourmet salads and protein-fuelled delights, Rachel’s offers something for everyone—all fresh, organic and healthy. Located within the grounds of luxury beachfront hotel, Puente Romano, the stylish eatery provides a beautiful setting for a lazy breakfast, business lunch or afternoon tea with friends.
