"Their In-house crafted beer is delicious, 5-6 varieties. Went there on a Sunday, they had special lunch menu of roasted chicken, grilled veggies and goat cheese with peppers. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is great."

"Lovely craft beer spot next to the beach. Beers are brewed in house! Very fresh and tasty. Good food selection with a few vegan options, we tried hummus - also home made and with home made bread"

"At last, Jávea has its own spot for truly artisanal beer — and it’s worth the wait. La Refinería is a warm, inviting space where everything is handcrafted by the owner himself, giving it a distinct character that instantly sparks curiosity about the story behind it all. It has the feel of a true family-run business — the husband-and-wife team is there from open to close, supported by a cheerful and knowledgeable staff who are always ready to explain the differences between each brew with genuine passion. The heart of the operation lies underground, where the brewing magic happens. Walking into the spotless, gleaming brewery feels almost like stepping into a laboratory — every detail carefully thought out and executed with precision. I sampled all six varieties on offer (yes, they have a tasting flight!), and each one was a standout. Hats off to every single brew — each was more delicious than the last. If you’re visiting Jávea and love craft beer, this gem should definitely be on your must-visit list."

"Great new place ram by a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable brewer who has created some lovely beers for summer nights in a very hot Spain. The brown ale is excellent with a perfect nutty finish. Burger is sensational as a main. Thanks"

"I'm a big craft beer fan so was delighted when I found this place near our villa. 5 beers on tap, and seemingly ever rotating. They had a hazy pale, an American IPA, brown ale, amber ale and a Czech lager. The service was really good and they gave us a selection of small tapas-esque snacks even though we weren't eating. The food menu looked very comprehensive so will definitely eat next time!"

"Went to La Refineria today, Sunday, January 18th. This is a wonderful place run by excellent people. The beers are all fantastic. There were five on tap and I had a flight of four and an extra slightly larger fifth so I could taste them all. I met the brewer, Pavol, who was super friendly and offered us a tour of the lower floor brew room. I was impressed. Come here. You’ll enjoy it. If you don’t, you must be from a strange planet…"
