It has been said before...the churros are fantastic. The coffee is very good and you can enjoy your breakfast or out but the churros, with the chocolate dip, of course, is a must. There are about four to an order, which was a surprise to us when we asked for 4, we thought we would have 4 churros. Funny thing... More

This place is always crowded with Spaniards and the waiters are continuously moving from a table to another. Very noisy, but typical spanish. The breakfast for 2 with churros, hot chocolates and coffees costed only 9,30 and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely a place to eat when in Malaga, although it looks old and not so pretty.

Thanks to welovemalaga that recommended this typical churros bar we really enjoyed this enriched hot chocolate with the churros, nothing related to the mexicans that you can try in California!

Surprisingly light churros (some may think they're too airy), wonderfully thick and creamy chocolate. 15 churros and 3 chocolates were 11,70 Euro. Yum.

Aranda has the reputation for the best chocolate and churros in Malaga. I am not into anything sweet but felt that I had to visit Aranda just to tick the box. My wife and I called in mid morning and all parts of the establishment located in along the length of the shortish C/Herreria Del Rey were busy. Thick sweet... More

We have been to Aranda several times before and always for churros and chocolate. Judging by some of the previous posts this makes me a bit of a prol. Who cares? Churros are basically batter and are simpy like doughnuts in a string rather than a blob. They are excellent with the thick chocolate and also simply with sugar..... The... More

You must go here for the churros and chocolate. Simply the best I have ever eaten. You only need one chocolate portion if you order for two people. The churros were mega fresh and simply a glorious treat.

Casa Aranda is something of an institution in Malaga, having been established over 75 years, serving churros (a kind of long, deep-fried batter pastry). The restaurant has pretty much taken over Calle Herreria del Rey, a few blocks away from the market. We went for an early breakfast and had no difficulty getting a table, although it gets crowded later.... More
