Description of the existing bar

THE MAIN BAR
This is the heart of Bar Time & Place, it combines beautiful art deco interiors with traditional Spanish architecture. Visitors are first struck by the natural rock face behind the bar, which has been carefully treated to ensure the integrity of the bar while maintaining its natural beauty (remember this is a historic listed building which is believed to go back to pre Christian, Moorish Spain). The walls are about a metre thick. The bar counter itself runs in a long curve from back to front in an subtle S bend and is made of beautifully hand laid and polished oak parquets.

Above the counter, handcrafted lights on dimmers and clever use of mirrors complete the effect, creating a room where several small groups can enjoy a quiet chat – or where a large group can have a secluded party. 

Air conditioning and large overhead fans ensure that conditions are comfortable whilst remaining unobtrusive.  In winter, the heat from the wood stove in the cave keep temperatures warm and cosy.

The total square metres of the building, excluding terraces, is 207 square metres.

THE TERRACE
The beautiful Plaza del Flores (plaza of flowers) provides the backdrop for the bar terrace, which is opens out onto the street along the front of the bar. Being a pedestrian area only, customers are never bothered with the intrusion and fumes of traffic which often spoil the open areas of other bars. 

The key word  here is relaxation – it’s easy to get lost in a long drink in probably the most tranquil part of the town, amidst the flowers and the scent of the bougainvillea blossoms.

THE STREET
Tables are set along the street immediately opposite the bar, from before Easter until usually sometime in October and so more than double the bar's capacity in the tourist season, while allowing people to sit outside in the rare peace of a car free pedestrian street while, enjoying the freshest of outdoor ambience... all in all, the perfect spot to unwind and relax...!


THE CAVE
This stunning natural cave attracts visitors throughout the entire year.  The beautiful rock face creates wonderful atmospherics for those who prefer a drink in romantic surroundings.  The natural temperature stability inherent in caves, keeps it comfortable in even the hottest weather, while in winter the wood burning stove retains a discreet but cosy warmth.
