From Supersol on your left walk up C/Gerald Brenan towards Alhaurin de la Torre.  Take the third turning on your left by the Video shop.  Walk to the end of the block it is on the left-hand corner opposite a hairdressers and diagonally opposite a coffee bar.

They have tapas, menu del dia and a la carte.  Open Monday to Thursday with a break the back end of the afternoon; open Friday and Saturday from 8.30 ´til closing (I presume that´s very late).  Toilets are very clean.  They have a large function room downstairs too.

Good prices.  Today we had a tapa of albondigas (2 balls), bacalao, gambas frito (4) and a finely chopped mixed salad along with 2 x beer, 1 largish agua con gas and a moscatel.  Whole lot came to 7.60 euros.  The tapas were .60c each.  The Bacalao was so good that she´s given me the recipe!

This restaurant is on the other side of Lauro Golf.   Quickest route is to follow the road through Alhaurin el Grande to Alhaurin de la Torre along the Ctra. Coin Malaga.  Go past the main entrance to Lauro Golf and take the next left (be warned it is very sharp and easily missed) - opposite Restaurante Albatross.  This road goes through the golf course.  Follow through to the very end where there is a T-junction.  Turn right and the restaurante is 100/150 metres on the left.  It has two large black barrels outside with the word Solear on them.

They have tapas and an a la carte menu (possibly a menu del dia but I´ve never asked).  Food is excellent and very reasonably priced.  Tapas on display yesterday were: Boquerones in olive oil, gambas frito, croquettas con jamon, muslitos, gambas kebab, pork kebab, alitos (chicken wings), ensalada ruso, ensalada rosa and albondigas. Main courses start from around 7euros.  Chicken in Garlic and the Rabbit are a couple of my favourites and so tasty.  Be warned portions are large and what with the bread, you can often go without a starter.  Yesterday we had 3 x beer, 1 large agua con gas, 2 vodka/tonic, 4 x tapas and a bowl of nuts all for 15.60 euros.

Toilets are very clean.  Staff are very friendly and helpful, especially the lady behind the bar - she always has a big smile!  You can go in just for a coffee.  The have a dining area in a conservatory to the side as well as one on the other side of the bar area.
