Fuentes del Marqués Restaurant

Eating inside the site

It is the restaurant inside the Fuentes del Marqués site, just over 2 km from the centre of Caravaca, among the springs and woodland of the Templars' Tower. The tourist office lists it with traditional food, game meats and rice dishes. It fits after the walk through the site. According to the site's leaflet, inside there is also a kiosk for a soft drink or something light, wooden benches and tables and public toilets.

Arriving on foot or by car

On foot you go along the Camino del Huerto; by car, along avenida de los Andenes and the Camino de las Fuentes. The two roads meet at El Molinico, from where cars continue to one of the parking areas and those on foot enter along a path beside the Cuevas del Marqués. At weekends and on public holidays traffic to the site is restricted and there is a park-and-walk car park nearby: if you come to eat on a Saturday or Sunday, expect a stretch on foot. The site's website says that, for now, no ticket is needed.

What we have not been able to confirm

The web address the restaurant used to have is no longer its own, and we have not found a menu, prices or hours published by the house. Call 968 70 00 87 before going, ask whether it is open that day and book a table.
