Best Restaurants & Bars in Bueu 2026
Working fishing port - fresh catches, authentic taverns
Updated weekly
About Bueu
Bueu sits on the Morrazo peninsula, a finger of land separating the Ría de Vigo from the Ría de Pontevedra. Unlike the commercialized Costa Brava or Costa del Sol, this coast remains working-class and fishing-focused.
The town's harbor is still active - you'll see fishermen mending nets, boats unloading their catches, and the morning auction at the lonja (fish market). This isn't a museum or tourist attraction; it's how the town has operated for generations.
Eating in Bueu means eating what the sea provides. Menus change daily based on what's available. Sardines are a specialty in summer, grilled whole over open fires in the street during festivals. Year-round, you'll find exceptional razor clams, octopus, and whatever else came off the boats.
Genuinely Local
Bueu has avoided the fate of many Spanish coastal towns. There are no high-rise hotels, no English pubs, no tourist menus. What you find are local families, working fishermen, and restaurants that serve the community first.
Under the Radar
Bueu doesn't appear in most travel guides. It's the kind of place you discover through locals or stumble upon while exploring the peninsula. This obscurity is its strength - prices are fair and authenticity is guaranteed.
How to Get There
From Vigo city center:
- Car:30-40 mins via PO-551 (scenic) or AG-57 (faster)
- Bus:45 mins from Vigo bus station (Estación de Autobuses)
- Taxi:€25-35 from Vigo
Vitrasa/Interurbano Ticket Info
Buses roughly hourly. Check schedules at bus station or online.
Local tip: Make it a day trip. Visit Bueu for lunch, then explore nearby beaches or continue to Cangas for dinner. The coastal drive on the PO-551 is beautiful and worth the extra time.

Bueu FAQs
Bueu is a working fishing port on the Morrazo peninsula. Unlike tourist-focused coastal towns, Bueu remains authentic - the local economy is still based on fishing. This means exceptionally fresh seafood served in unpretentious taverns. The town is also known for its beautiful beaches and hiking trails.
Bueu is about 20km from Vigo, on the Morrazo peninsula across the ría. By car: 30-40 minutes via the PO-551 coastal road (scenic) or AG-57 motorway (faster). By bus: Regular services from Vigo bus station (Estación de Autobuses), about 45 minutes. No direct train connection.
The seafood is the star. Bueu is famous for its sardines (sardinas), which are grilled over open flames in summer. Also excellent: navajas (razor clams), pulpo (octopus), and whatever the boats brought in that morning. Ask what's fresh - the menu often depends on the day's catch.
Yes, if you want authentic Galicia without tourist polish. Bueu offers better value and a more local atmosphere than Vigo's center. Combine it with a visit to nearby beaches (Praia de Agrelo, Praia de Portomaior) or the Cíes Islands ferry (summer only). It's a proper day trip destination.
Summer brings the sardine festivals and beach weather. Spring and autumn offer milder crowds and excellent seafood. Winter is quiet but restaurants still serve fresh fish. The fishing auction (lonja) operates year-round in the early morning if you want to see the catch come in.
