Solana
Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin
€€€
Solana is impressively situated just a few metres from the Santuario de la Bien Aparecida, the venerated patron saint of Cantabria. If you’re looking for a picture-postcard view of the Cantabrian mountains you won’t find a better location than this, where the views from your table transport guests to a world of green meadows in which cows can been seen grazing nearby. Chef Ignacio Solana, alongside his sister Inma (sommelier and front-of-house manager), showcases contemporary cuisine with strong traditional roots that is faithful to both the sea and the mountains but with a nod to tradition an

La Bicicleta
regional · ★ Michelin
€€€€
The name of this restaurant occupying a large 18C house is deliberate as it reflects the professional relationship that chef Eduardo Quintana once had with cycling. This is highlighted in the saying by Albert Einstein at the entrance (“Life is like riding a bicycle – to keep your balance, you need to keep moving”) which influences his general attitude to life. It boasts a pleasant patio-terrace, where guests can savour appetisers, plus an attractive rustic-retro decor inside. The cuisine, which is particularly focused on locally sourced seasonal ingredients, is centred around three tasting men

Cartes is a small town of particular interest along the historic “camino real” that once connected the region of Castille with the port of Santander. Here, in this 17C mansion that once served as the post office, chef Enrique Pérez offers his guests updated traditional cuisine that is delicate and lovingly prepared, with a focus on presentation and flavours that will leave their mark on the palate. The welcoming, rustically inspired dining room is complemented by a few tables beneath a balcony at the entrance – a perfect setting for a drink as you watch the world go by in one of the country’s

Pan de Cuco
Farm to table, Regional Cuisine · Bib
€€
This attractive large house by the main road boasts an unusual name (a type of sorrel that is found in fields of maize) and cuisine that comes as a pleasant surprise. It features a pleasant terrace, a gastro-bar with high tables perfect for tapas and raciones, plus a contemporary dining room with a rustic decor. The cooking here takes its inspiration from both the region and what’s in season, including top-quality local fish, delicious steak tartare, and tasty stews prepared with Pedresa chicken, a breed that is commonly known as “picasuelo” in Cantabria.

Ronquillo
Regional Cuisine
€€
A restaurant with a delightfully rustic ambience that includes a profusion of exposed stone and wood, which provides the backdrop for traditionally inspired cuisine that includes a skilful contemporary touch and revolves around the sourcing of the best zero-mile ingredients. The family at the helm takes care of the meticulous service and the beautiful presentation of dishes featuring on the à la carte and three tasting menus: Cullavera, Cueva del Mirón and Cueva Covalanas. All the soups and stews we tried here, such as the pinto beans with venison, were superb.
