Hakuna Matata Foods & Drinks

Hakuna Matata is a dinner-and-cocktails terrace on Avenida de la Costa Blanca in Playa de San Juan, and it's a good pick when you want to eat properly before the bars, not just pick at snacks. It's part of Grupo TXC, the same group behind Texaco at the same address, so it's an easy first stop before a longer night. The menu leans on burgers, with a rotating seasonal special, plus chicken fingers and other casual plates, and there's a separate drinks list of cocktails, wine and spirits. The terrace has a relaxed feel, so you can actually hold a conversation here. Reviewers mention that staff take allergies and intolerances seriously, which is worth knowing if you're eating with someone careful. It also hosts birthdays, work dinners and pre-wedding parties with a special menu. Bookings go through WhatsApp, which is the easiest way to grab a table on summer weekends.
