Must-try dishes
Nikkei Arepas, La Verduleria Gnocchi, Wok
Located in the heart of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, La Verdulería Vegetarian Restaurant has established itself as a go-to spot for those seeking a healthy alternative without sacrificing flavor or creativity. While not strictly vegan—its menu is ovo-lacto-vegetarian—it offers a wide range of options for vegans, those with celiac disease, and those with lactose intolerance, making it inclusive and highly valued by people with diverse dietary needs.
The restaurant is welcoming and tastefully decorated, with details that exude warmth: simple yet sophisticated decor, good lighting, and ample space for comfortable dining. The atmosphere is relaxed at lunchtime, ideal for a light meal, while it becomes more intimate in the evening. Portions are generous, and the dishes are presented with flair.
The menu features truly distinctive dishes: tacos filled with fresh and spiced vegetables, nachos with original combinations, mini-arepas filled with various fillings, elaborate salads, main courses featuring legumes and seasonal vegetables, soups, and a selection of homemade desserts. Always emphasizing the use of locally sourced ingredients whenever possible, which reinforces freshness and local identity. The service is friendly, attentive, and caring, adding to the overall dining experience.
What truly sets La Verdulería apart is its ability to make any dish without meat, dairy, or dietary restrictions appealing, surprising, and full of flavor. It's not just for vegetarians: many customers who eat everything return because they appreciate the freshness, variety, and authenticity of the flavors.

Where to eat
Lucky Helado
If you're in downtown Santa Cruz and fancy something cold while strolling around Plaza de España, Lucky Helado is a very convenient option. It's a takeaway shop with a variety of ice creams and fast service, ideal for a quick stop before continuing your walk. Perfect for cooling off without any hassle right in the city center. There are often queues.
What to see
Biblioteca de Arte TEA
If you need a quiet place in the heart of Santa Cruz to stop for a moment, the TEA Art Library is perfect for escaping the city's hustle and bustle. Here you can sit and read, study, or simply spend some time in silence surrounded by books and contemporary architecture. The space is spacious, bright, and very pleasant, ideal for those seeking tranquility, culture, and a different atmosphere within the city.
Activities
Albergue Comarcal Valle Colino
The Valle Colino Regional Shelter in La Laguna is Tenerife's main shelter for abandoned animals. In addition to caring for and sheltering dogs and cats, it offers the opportunity to volunteer in its daily work: walking animals, helping with cleaning them, or assisting with adoption campaigns. A caring and emotionally rewarding experience for animal lovers.
Beaches
Playa de la Nea
La Nea Beach in Radazul is a volcanic black sand beach perfect for lingering. It's very close to Santa Cruz, but the atmosphere here is calmer, with a breakwater that softens the waves and a promenade along the entire shore. It's a comfortable beach, well-integrated into the surroundings and very popular with locals.
Nightlife
Urban 180
If you enjoy sipping a drink with city views and continuing the night without leaving one spot, Azotea Urban 180 is one of those rooftop bars I love to visit. Located on the seventh floor of the Hotel Urban Anaga in Santa Cruz, it shows: you get a panoramic view of the city, the sunsets take on a whole new dimension, the music and cocktails liven up the atmosphere, and as night falls, the place transforms into a lively rooftop club with a great vibe and people ready to have a good time.
Shopping
7 Islas 7 Quesos
At 7 Islas 7 Quesos, you'll feel like you've stepped into a little paradise for cheese lovers. They offer Canarian products made from sheep, goat, and mixed cheeses, from fresh to semi-cured, as well as artisanal spreads and almogrotes, including a pistachio one that will win you over. The service is friendly and they'll advise you based on your preferences. If you're looking for quality, authentic cheeses, and a personal touch, this is the place.
Sports
Santa Cruz Extreme
The Santa Cruz Extreme is an iconic mountain race in Tenerife, which runs through Anaga Rural Park and finishes in Santa Cruz. It has several categories (60 km, 33 km, 18 km, 10 km, and a vertical race), with steep slopes, routes along trails, and traditional farmhouses. Held in October, it attracts runners of many nationalities; it is also notable for its sustainable approach and for promoting the natural and rural value of Anaga.
Trekking
Sendero Los Catalanes
The Los Catalanes Trail, in the Anaga Mountains, combines rural history and spectacular landscapes. It's a medium-difficulty route that connects old farmhouses through terraced fields, laurel forest, and sea views. The contrast between the humid vegetation and the remains of traditional Canarian life make this route an authentic experience, highly representative of the greenest and most peaceful side of Tenerife.
