MG Artesanos

Churrería MG Artesanos is a mobile churro stall beside the Gran Vía in La Manga, around km 14. It opens mornings only and makes churros (fried dough sticks) that customers describe as slim porras (thicker fried dough sticks), somewhere between the two, fried to order and served with hot chocolate.

The churros (fried dough sticks)

Almost every review discusses size and texture: crisp outside, fluffy and not very oily. Visitors from Madrid compare them to porras (thick fried dough sticks), and those from the south to calentitos or tejeringos (regional fried dough varieties), so be aware that these are not thin looped churros. They are sold by the dozen or half-dozen, and most reviews consider the price affordable.

• Churros (fried dough sticks) in a thin porra style
• Hot chocolate
• Cold drinks

To take away or enjoy there

Most people take them home freshly made for breakfast, but there are a few street tables beside the stall for hot chocolate on the spot. The hot chocolate receives praise in many reviews and is the usual accompaniment.

When to visit

It is a morning business, closing at midday and mainly operating in summer. Opening days do not always match published information, and some customers have found the stall closed, so confirm before visiting. Street parking is free.
