Petímetre Restaurant Alicante Golf

Petímetre is a large restaurant and cocktail bar at the Alicante Golf club on Avenida del Locutor Vicente Hipólito, in the Playa de San Juan area. It's a relaxed place for a long lunch, a late brunch or drinks that drift into the evening, and you don't need to play golf to go. It opened in 2018 with a tropical-inspired look and a menu of Mediterranean cooking built around rice dishes. The place has been refreshed since then. Local press reported a reopening after a refurbishment, with new lighting, sound and decor, and a menu reworked around dishes to share. Cocktails are a core part of the concept, and the idea is that it runs non-stop from morning until night rather than closing between services. Other coverage talks about cooking over charcoal, so it's worth asking what's on the grill the day you go. What reviewers keep coming back to is the brunch, which several call excellent value for the money, along with the decor and the calm atmosphere. A few describe it as a good spot for a quiet lunch and a proper chat, or for a group get-together. The criticisms are fairly consistent too. Some find the coffee and tea selection thin, and a few feel the waiting staff could be more experienced or attentive. On Google it sits at 4 stars from nearly 1,500 reviews, and Google lists the prices as moderate. On the practical side, local press says it's open daily from 9am without a break. The reopening coverage mentions Sunday brunch with carers looking after children, DJ sessions on Saturdays and aperitifs on Fridays, but programmes like that change, so check the current line-up before you plan around it. It sits inside the Alicante Golf grounds in San Juan rather than on the seafront. It suits groups, families and anyone after a long, unhurried brunch or lunch away from the busier beachfront. If you want fast, polished service or a serious coffee, you might be happier elsewhere.
