Pollos Brasa La Manga

Pollos Brasa La Manga, also trading as Topbrasa, is a takeaway chicken grill in the Copacabana development, beside the Gran Vía at km 2,5 of La Manga. Chickens are grilled in a charcoal oven, and regulars see it as lunch sorted after a morning at the beach.

What you can order

Charcoal-grilled chicken is the main offering, but side dishes feature almost as much in reviews: potatoes are the most discussed item of all. The menu includes:

• Charcoal-grilled chicken
• Charcoal-grilled rabbit
• Patatas panaderas (sliced baked potatoes) or roast potatoes
• Roast peppers
• rice dishes

Most reviews praise the charcoal flavour; a few say the chicken can be a little dry.

Ordering in advance

Queues form outside at lunchtime in summer, and regular customers advise ordering chicken well ahead, sometimes a couple of days in advance. With an order placed, you collect at the agreed time without waiting. It is a family business that customers say opens all year.

Opening hours

Open from morning until lunchtime Wednesday to Monday; closed on Tuesdays. It does not open in the evening. The entrance is wheelchair accessible. For other places to eat in the first few kilometres of La Manga, see more restaurants.
