Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Absolutely love this little haven of peace and tranquility...no idea what it's like at night as we went after a meal in the fish restaurant downstairs, in the early evening and it was very easy to get a seat. Great views, very comfy lounge seating, making you not want to move, and the best orange Mojito I've had. Will return!"
"We have just spent the last 5 nights in a row coming here for cocktails. The cocktails are amazing & the service is excellent. I want to say a special thank you to the man who served us for all 5 of those nights. I unfortunately didn’t get his name, but grateful for how he looked after us during our time here. He is a very nice man. Thank you again & I will definitely return when I come back to Nerja again"
"Was here recently as part of a wedding group for their drinks the night before the wedding, I love the vibe of this bar. The service was great, a portion of the drinks & all the finger food was included but they were quick to refill and to look after us. I had been here previously about 8 years ago and I remember it being just as nice. The roof top has a lovely vibe, not sure if it is always open or if needs to be booked but highly recommend a visit."
"Wonderful rooftop cocktail bar in the heart of Nerja. Don’t miss this hidden gem with exceptional cocktails and service."
"We had a great cocktail before dinner at Buddha, hosted by Felipe the very knowledgeable and friendly bartender. The location was a little difficult to find because the bare is not well signed. Look for Bar Redondo, which has a fish half on the north side of the street, and then take the elevator to the 3⁰ floor. We asked for a drink that was not on the menu, but it'd our usual, signature drink for Sunday night, the Boulevardier. It's a Negroni but with the gin replaced by eye or bourbon whiskey. I started to evoking the drink to our waiter and instantly Felipe said, "ah, you want a Boulevardier!" Sure sign of a great bartender, and it was delish!"
"Great spot for cocktails and mocktails. Rooftop bar, which is always nice. Popcorn with drinks was lovely."
"We had our post wedding party here and what a place it was beautiful and the staff top class. We had a cockfailsand food pre booked through our planner and all our guests were amazed of the quality of the food, quality of the cocktails and the staff so professional. This is a must visit and can't wait to get back. Thanks all at Buddha Bar"
"We had a great meal out with lovely staff, nice atmosphere and tasty food. The highlight of the evening were the delicious cocktails made with fresh fruit and generous sizes. We were initially disappointed as we didn't get a seat with a view but we didn't have a reservation so we couldn't expect much. Still it was so peaceful getting away from the hustle and bustle up on the rooftop. We had a full three courses with cocktails and the price was incredibly good (€60 approx!). The bread was freshly baked and all of the food was delicious! The staff had perfect English which helped us as we only have a few words of Spanish. We were there for a long time and never felt rushed. We enjoyed the cocktails immensely and they looked amazing too. The only negative I can highlight is the toilets aren't great. Small and a bit dingy. I'd highly recommend booking in advance to get the view as it is superb and would really top off a nice evening."
