Sure, Blanes is a fishing port, and thus features a plethora of wonderful seafood restaurants. But sometimes you just want a pizza, right? Right!
So let’s take look, shall we?
There are lots of pizza outlets in Blanes, particularly in the tourist district of Els Pins.
Pizza is also served in the many tourist-oriented eateries along the boulevard the lines Platja de Blanes — the beach along the old town center.
But if you’re after good quality, prepared- and baked on the premises pizza, don’t just settle for the rest when you can have the best.
The folks at La Gondola, a family-run restaurant, have been making pizza and other Italian food for 30+ years. The locals know and love the place, and that’s always a good sign.
On busy nights you may have to wait for a table. But you won’t regret it.
