Where to eat in Cudillero

To start you off, here we tell you which typical Asturian dishes are a must-eat .

* We try to keep articles up to date, but we may miss something. If you find restaurants on this list that are closed or have different prices, please let us know so we can update it. 

1. Casa Mari -Cider House-

It is one of the safe bets for eating well in Cudillero. If you travel in summer, it is best to book or arrive early, but if you have to wait... it is worth it. The ideal is to share a couple of dishes, as you know that the portions in Asturias are very generous. Recommended is the Asturian fabada or beans with clams €18, cachopo with ham and cheese €35, or black rice.

2. El Remo Cider House

This is another of Cudillero's legendary establishments, where you can eat wonderfully and at a good price. We recommend sharing some scallops and a cachopo , which costs around €21 and is filled with cecina, Vidiago cheese, peppers and asparagus (as you can see, quite filling). To finish off the meal, there's nothing better than their cheese flan . Average price per person: €15-20.

3. Bar Restaurant Casa Julio

In the central Plaza de la Marina in Cudillero this terrace stands out, and is perfect for sitting and having a cider or a beer with something to snack on , such as chorizos in cider (€8), fried squid (€9) or fried pixin (€20), for example.

4. La Casina Bar Restaurant

On a somewhat quieter street, you will find this bar-restaurant with a terrace and dining room. The menu is quite extensive but our advice is to order a couple of portions to share. They have Galician-style octopus, baby squid, croquettes, cheese and sausage boards… In short, there is something for everyone. Average price per person: 15-20€.

5. Raysa Confectionery

Founded in 1970, this confectionery is the perfect final stop : here they prepare some delicious typical desserts from the area. Try the avellanitos , a pastry made with hazelnuts and honey, or the suspiros , a “cookies” made with butter and sugar. They cost €1.

Bonus: The Rosebush

If you want to fill up your boots and enjoy a homemade daily menu at a good price , coming to El Rosal is a great idea. It includes a starter, a main course, a drink, a homemade dessert and coffee. The starters are especially delicious: the fabada and the Asturian stew are some of the house specialties.

We are including this restaurant as an extra because it is technically NOT in Cudillero… but we assume that you will arrive to the town by car, so on the way back, you can stop here. It is in San Martín de Luiña , about 8 km from Cudillero and yes, it is very much worth it.

We hope that these recommendations of restaurants where you can eat well and cheaply in Cudillero will help you find the best place to fill your boots, and discover the tastiest side of this beautiful Asturian town. Do you know of any other unmissable gastronomic stops?

What the listed prices actually cover

The figures in the guide are per-dish or per-person averages, not menu totals, and the distinction matters for anyone budgeting a meal in Cudillero. Casa Mari's fabada or beans with clams is listed at €18 and its cachopo with ham and cheese at €35; El Remo's cachopo runs around €21, with an average of €15-20 per person; Casa Julio prices chorizos in cider at €8, fried squid at €9 and fried pixin at €20; La Casina sits at €15-20 per person; Raysa's avellanitos and suspiros cost €1 each.

The article's own advice to share a couple of dishes rests on the observation that portions in Asturias are very generous, which means the per-person cost of a shared meal at Casa Mari or La Casina can land below the headline dish price. The €15-20 averages at El Remo and La Casina are the only figures framed per person, so they are the closest thing to a comparable benchmark across the list; the rest are item prices that depend on how many people split them.

The El Rosal daily menu is the one entry described as a full package — starter, main course, drink, homemade dessert and coffee — rather than a set of individual prices. It is also the only recommendation outside Cudillero itself, in San Martín de Luiña about 8 km away, positioned for travellers arriving by car on the return leg.

Cider houses and the sharing model

Three of the entries — Casa Mari, El Remo and Casa Julio — are framed as cider houses or terrace bars where the order is a couple of portions plus a glass of crisp Asturian natural cider, rather than a single plated main. That format is what connects the low per-person averages at El Remo and La Casina to the larger dish prices at Casa Mari: the cost is controlled by the number of dishes ordered, not by a discount on any one of them.

The specific fillings also carry the local larder into the price. El Remo's cachopo is described as filled with cecina, Vidiago cheese, peppers and asparagus, and Casa Mari's cachopo with ham and cheese, while Casa Julio's fried pixin and La Casina's Galician-style octopus, baby squid, croquettes and cheese and sausage boards keep the menu anchored to Asturian and northern Spanish products. Raysa, founded in 1970, closes the sequence with hazelnut-and-honey avellanitos and butter-and-sugar suspiros at €1.

Seasonality and the update caveat

The guide flags summer demand at Casa Mari specifically: booking ahead or arriving early is advised, and a wait is presented as worth it. That is the only seasonal warning in the text, and it applies to the establishment described as one of the safe bets for eating well in Cudillero, which implies the queue risk concentrates on the most established names rather than across the list.

The article also carries an explicit caveat that prices and openings may change and invites readers to report closures or different prices. Read alongside the item-level figures — €18, €35, €21, €8, €9, €20, €1 — that caveat means the numbers function as a snapshot rather than a guarantee, and the open question for any traveller is whether the €15-20 per-person averages at El Remo and La Casina still hold when the menu is ordered as described.
