Premium Plus Steakhouse and Cocktail bar, Moraira. How accessible it it?

When asking how wheelchair accessible Premium Plus Steakhouse Restaurant and cocktail bar is, the review is mixed. It is a specialist steakhouse and whilst the food was of a high quality the accessibility was not.

Wheelchair access at Premium Plus Steakhouse Restaurant and cocktail bar

There are two areas of seating at Premium Plus. The first being the terrace outside on ground level which is wheelchair accessible once you have crossed over a small lip.

The second is inside the  air-conditioned restaurant itself. The question as to whether this is wheelchair accessible is dependent on your needs. There is a steep 8 steps to get up to get into the indoor seating which in no way can be described as accessible for wheelchair users.

Disabled parking for Premium Plus Steakhouse Restaurant and cocktail Bar , Moraira

The nearest parking to Premium Plus steakhouse restaurant ad Cocktail Bar is in the main carpark behind the row of restaurants and accessible via Ave. Madrid. It is a huge car park and some of it is taken by a fairground during high season.

However, there are no allocated disabled parking spaces here. The short promenade of restaurant where Premium Plus is located is accessible from the beach car park opposite after a short walk/wheel. We chose to park in the large main car park on the end of a row of non-disabled friendly spaces as it was closer.

What has Premium Plus steakhouse and Cocktail Bar, Moraira got to offer the disabled traveller?

I’m afraid the answer to this question is not a lot. In fact, we won’t be returning. We sat on the terrace on a very hot afternoon and there was no attempt to even offer fans to cool us down.  Other diners had the choice of going up the steps into the air-conditioned restaurant. An option which a disabled traveller did not have. There was no access to the toilet as it was in the main restaurant upstairs and although it was larger than normal, that didn’t matter because you wouldn’t be able to get to it.

Is Premium Plus Steakhouse and cocktail bar  Accessible for wheelchair users?

You can have access to the terrace at the front but as a disabled traveller, there your access ends. No access to a toilet or to the bar area.

There is no accessible toilet.

In conclusion, we will not be returning.  The food, staff or ambience was not special enough to tempt us back. There are so many more restaurant in Moraira which have attempted accessibility in some way and we will be going to those in the future.

La Bambula, Javea – How Wheelchair Accessible is it?

la bambula javea wheelchair friendly

La Bambula restaurant and bar is a real favourite of ours. We have visited La Bambula many times because it is fantastically wheelchair accessible. The view of the beach and the Montgo Mountain in the distance would be a highlight of any holiday. It has such a great vibe about it and everyone working and drinking there, who want a chilled, relaxing time. Nothing is a rush and it just all works like clockwork.  There is a wide variety of food and drinks. The food is good but if you just want a drink, then it is a great place to sit and watch the world go by or listen to live music on some afternoons.

Wheelchair access tables

La Bambula is more than just wheelchair accessible. It is tastefully decorated and quite chic in design. The feeling of understated elegance.  you really feel that you are visiting somewhere special and that they have thought about the disabled traveller.  There are a wide variety of wheelchair accessible table types both in inside and out on the large terrace overlooking the beach. They even have a shop, Boho Boutique-  really tasteful items for a great holiday purchase. Ur most recent visit was in June 2020 and there was a wide variety of different tables and seating available. During busy times in high season, that may not be the case.

Wheelchair accessible Parking

The nearest disabled parking space is in Calle Pireo however, the whole of the promenade is step-free and a great flat rolling surface so you can park in any disabled spaces behind the Arenal Beach area and then wheel to Bambula. If distance walking/rolling is an issue then the disabled space in Calle Pireo is the nearest.

Once you park there, you roll towards the sea and then turn right when you reach the promenade. La Bambula is the last restaurant that you come to.

Easy Access

Access to the bar/restaurant is completely flat with a combination of wooden and tiled flooring. Inside is huge and the tables are arranged well so that access around them is very good. On the terrace outside, it could be a little difficult in the height of the busy season.

Disabled access Toilet

This restaurant has a designated disabled access toilet. It is where the normal toilets are at the far rear of the restaurant through the swing doors.

How Accesssible is La Bambula?

La Bambula has excellent accessibility for wheelchair users. Larger electric wheelchairs would also easily get around La Bambula. We cannot recommend this bar and restaurant enough. It feels as if wheelchairs have really been considered it’s layout.

BREAKING NEWS

La Bambula has taken out the additional disabled toilet and fitted an accessible lift for wheelchairs and those with reduced mobility. It now opens up the large upstairs terrace for all. A great addition to an already fantastically accessible bar and restaurant in Javea. I just want to say well done!

This restaurant/bar is a must-visit for anyone visiting Javea. The food is high quality but it is not the star of the show. The view from the terrace and the general ambience is fantastic. A real fun place to hang out.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. You are guaranteed to see us down there, usually at 7pm on a Wednesday when the swing band plays.
