Casa Lita

We had our visit in 5 years. Unfortunately our favorite tapas was not on the menu that day. Other tapas were great. The biggest question mark is about their beer. Why a Spanish institution serves Heineken?!?! Felt a very touristic decision

When you are sat on a bench in Santander and feeling a little bit hungry but know all the restaurants are going to be booked out because its the busy season and you spot this place across the roaf and decide yo check it out. It looks like any regular cafe from the outside but once you are in you enter culinary, atmospheric, pincho heaven. The place is just buzzing and felt like it is equally popular with tourists as locals. We tried to return on Monday but thry were closed - looks like we will need to drive 14 hours back to Dantander one day then! Absolutely fabulous place.

A little confused by the order system. Indoor sign says no table service but when I was able to flag down the waiter he placed my orders. Browsed the pinchos inside and when I didn’t know my table number, wait staff rolled their eyes at me. Table numbers are on the napkin holders for those who need to know. The single waiter working the entire outdoor patio was going nonstop: ringing up customers, clearing and cleaning tables, sweeping. Food was pleasant, went for the pinchos calientes including chicken curry, potato, vegetable, & cheese cassoulet, and bonito fish and cheese. The Gilda pinchos weren’t as good as they are in Bilbao. Did not prefer the cider, will stick with wine next time. Good for people watching and they remain open all afternoon and until midnight.

I've been here twice, both times solo on busy nights, and I've received great service to accompany the best pinxos I've had in Spain. The food is fresh, coming out every few minutes, inventive, and absolutely delicious. Even though it's popular and busy, it's never chaotic, and they make sure everyone receives attention. I recommend Casa Lita to anyone visiting Santander.

An amazing place to try pinchos, the service is fast and food are delicious. Vermut is amazing too

Great Pinxos place by the water. Helpful, friendly staff. Good food.

Lovely busy little bar close to the seafront in Santander. It's a popular venue and has a lot of atmosphere. Great variety of pinchos available to taste. Lovely staff. Recommend.

Great pinchos with many types to choose from. The bar staff will heat up the food when needed and provide help if you have any food preferences. That being said, as they are not made by order, some might be a bit stale, but not problematic. Price wise, it’s a good deal. All in all, a great place to have a meal.

Outstanding ambiance. Dynamic creation of pinchos. Ok enough with BS. Food is really awesome. They keep bringing out tapas/pinchos and the servers do a great job explaining what is in all of these creations. My advice...order a bottle of wine and eat until you are almost full. Then run as fast as you can to the ice cream shop down the street.

This is the best tapas restaurant I have been to in a long time! The quality and quantity of the dishes is great - I would suggest that 3 dishes is more than enough for 1 person. We had a couple of jugs of Sangria between 4 of us and the service was excellent - the cost of all of this only came to €15 per person, which is fantastic value for money, so a full recommendation

Casa Lita, located in the heart of the neighborhood, Puerto Chico, has a huge variety of pinchos, reasonably priced wines, and great view of the Paseo de Pereda. They have several wines and their prices written in chalk above the bar, which makes ordering a good Rioja or Ribera easy. Everyone orders at the bar. You can sit anywhere you like, including my favorite place, right in front of the window so that I can watch the people passing by.

Nice Bar, excellent Tapas, a good choice of red and white wines and a friendly staff. Only four stars because of the nearby main street with a lot of traffic and noise.

Fabulous pintxos and some of the best rioja I enjoyed in Spain at a very reasonable price. Friendly and personable service too.
