Guachinche Finca El Pino: a rustic gem in northern Tenerife

A hidden gem in La Orotava

Tucked away in La Orotava, surrounded by countryside and farm estates, you’ll find one of those guachinches that many now consider an essential stop in northern Tenerife. Guachinche Finca El Pino is a traditional spot that stands out for its rustic atmosphere, grilled meats, and home-style Canarian cooking. Content creators @guachinchesmodernos visited some time ago and declared it “one of the guachinches where we’ve returned most often and never get tired of.”

Location and setting

One of the establishment’s main draws is its location. Situated in the municipality of La Orotava, it offers terraces, gardens, and outdoor spaces where diners can unwind and switch off from everyday life. “It doesn’t get more rustic than this,” they commented during their visit.

What’s on the menu

The menu features typical Canarian dishes and house specialities, giving customers plenty of choice. On their visit, the content creators kicked off with the house salad, which you can pair with croquettes — in this case, carrot and fried egg croquettes. “They’re incredible,” they enthused. The house beans are a must-order item at the establishment. “It’s a dish we always order because they’re absolutely delicious,” they said. Broken eggs with chorizo was another choice, as they hadn’t ordered that dish for a while. To finish, they went for the pork tenderloin with local potatoes, a house speciality where the grilled meats really shine.

Save room for dessert

For a sweet finale, any dessert lover simply cannot leave the guachinche without trying some of the homemade options. The chocolate flan and the creamy yoghurt dessert with mango and almond are two absolute must-haves. “I love this chocolate flan almost as much as I love my husband,” joked Joana.

Booking and opening times

The team also recommends booking a table before heading over to guarantee a spot. “Don’t just turn up on a whim — book before you come,” they advise. Guachinche Finca El Pino is located at Camino Diseminado, 17, in La Orotava. It holds a 4.3-star rating on Google, reflecting the satisfaction of those who have visited and sampled its dishes. It opens Fridays and Saturdays with continuous hours from 1:00 PM to 10:00 PM, while on Sundays it reduces its hours to offer lunch only, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. The establishment remains closed the rest of the week to give staff a well-earned break.
