What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Ruskins garners praise for its generous portions, particularly the Sunday roasts and large breakfasts, often served with warm and attentive hospitality. While many appreciate the value and friendly atmosphere, some reviews mention the food being average for the price or occasional service delays. The establishment is noted for its accommodating approach to dietary needs, including vegetarian and vegan options.
"A good find! Nice cosy café offering a very decent tasty vegetarian or vegan breakfast with Quorn sausages. Service was quick and the café is tops for cleanliness. They also do daily traditional Fish & Chips (or Scampi) with a special offer on a Friday. Dine in or on the terrace. Ruskin's is easy to located as it is opposite the RIU hotel."
Dave Gaskell
"A delicious vegan Sunday lunch.
The vegetables were al dente, the mash was creamy, the roasties were well cooked, and the nut roast was delicious and perfectly seasoned. They even had vegan gravy. The only things that could improve the experience are the addition of a vegan Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese, which would be easy to do, and a dessert option that's suitable for vegans, which would also be really easy.
There are a few vegan options on the menu, including a cooked breakfast. They also do oat milk and almond milk for hot drinks."

"I really, really love Ruskins. Food is great, drinks are fabulous, prices are awesome, service is exemplary. But all of those (important) points aside, more than anything the staff are truly wonderful, lovely, attentive, friendly and so welcoming. My mother unfortunately has dementia 😢 but the servers couldn't be anymore kind and accommodating. Seriously. Especially Catherine and Jaydin/Jaydean/Jaydeen?!! (I'm sorry chica, my spelling sucks!!!) It really feels like a home from home (and, this may make me sound like a weirdo, but the bathrooms are immaculate.... says a lot about a restaurant IMO) If you're in Nerja definitely stop by, even if just for a few drinks -- or the ab fab Sunday roast.... and yeah, I know, British food in every Spain, but, hey now and then it's no biggie, especially when an establishment so deserves the patronage. Max.xx (OH! and fab selection of veggie, vegan, gluten-free etc. etc)"
