Re: gran canaria
You are probably aware that anything outside of the shopping arcade / Restaurant area is redundant. The Irish Bar next to the Chinese restaurant and the pub across the walkway is certainly your biggest competition, but the best of luck!

Re: gran canaria
yes, but we are going to give it a go as we think our quality of life there far outweighs making lots of money, any more info will be gratefully accepted

Re: gran canaria
I looked at Gran Canaria and the opportunities available and did find the area quite restricted for my intentions but if your going to open a bar then u won't have much time to take it easy so to speak as Porto Rico is a very busy little place!!
