Freiduría Chupytira (Huelin)

Neighbourhood fried-fish and seafood restaurant · Huelin

Must try

Pescaíto frito (boquerones, squid, octopus), prawns (the most praised), mussels, clams and razor clams (these were disappointing in October 2026). They serve aioli free of charge (Trendencias).

About

The original fried fish shop of a Málaga group that now has several branches. In Huelin it is still a neighbourhood place, with a terrace and fish from the market.

Good to know

Book: it fills up and is slow at peak times. If you do not want to leave the centre, they have a place at Calle Sancha de Lara, 4, with a kitchen that does not close at midday.

Getting there and parking

Outside the historic centre: taxi or city bus from the Alameda Principal.
