About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
La Casita boasts a relaxed and welcoming ambience. Set in its Carbis Bay location, this family-run restaurant is incredibly vibrant and has a close team of exceptionally friendly staff.
We invite you to join us at the bar for a pre-dinner gin tonic a fino or cocktail. Relax on the terrace with a glass of fine wine sourced from small boutique vineyards in Spain and Europe. Alternatively, we have some superb Cornish and European beers and ciders on offer.
The finest fresh ingredients are meticulously sourced both locally and from Spain. This is at the heart of La Casita's menu which features paella, pizza, chargrilled meats & local seafood, vegetarian & vegan dishes. Our specials change regularly and we have a great selection on our tapas menu.
Children are welcome and have their own menu with a great selection of dishes.

    Always great food. A little dark in the corner we sat as two light bulbs were out. Bench seat also uncomfortable and too high for table but it’s such a fab place these were minor inconveniences. Fast service amazing paella, pizzas and cocktails.

    The two young waitresses, sorry didn't get their names, were delightful! The food was lovely. The paella was exceptional and the fish stew was so good too. Apparently the creme catalan was lovely too. Been meaning to go here for years will definitely go again when we come back to the wonderful St Ives!
