Forum Marbella brings restaurants, cafés, rooftop drinks, shopping, design and wellness together on Marbella’s Golden Mile.
For us at MarbsLifestyle.com, it is one of the freshest lifestyle destinations in the city.
Stylish, social and easy to enjoy from morning coffee to evening cocktails.
Forum Marbella is one of the most exciting new lifestyle destinations on Marbella’s Golden Mile. For us at MarbsLifestyle.com, it represents exactly the kind of place that makes Marbella so special: stylish, international, social, relaxed and full of beautiful details. It is not just a shopping centre, and it is not only a restaurant destination. Forum Marbella is a place where food, design, wellness, shopping and everyday life come together in one curated setting.
Located on the Golden Mile, between Marbella and Puerto Banús, Forum has quickly become a new meeting point for locals, residents and visitors. It is the kind of place you can visit for a quick coffee, a long lunch, an afternoon of shopping, a Pilates class, a beauty appointment, rooftop cocktails or dinner with friends. That flexibility is what makes Forum stand out. It fits naturally into the rhythm of Marbella life.
What we love most about Forum Marbella is that it works throughout the entire day. In the morning, you can start with speciality coffee at Kofficlub, fresh pastries at Nybakat or a healthy juice from Organic Cold Pressed Juicery. For brunch or lunch, there are relaxed and healthy options such as Planta Bistrot, as well as more social restaurant settings for a longer meal. Later in the day, Forum changes mood. The atmosphere becomes more vibrant, with restaurants, cocktails, rooftop views and a stronger evening energy.
The dining scene is one of Forum Marbella’s biggest strengths. Florentine brings a glamorous Italian restaurant experience to the Golden Mile, with stylish interiors, cocktails, pasta, pizza and a lively atmosphere. It is one of those places that works for both a beautiful lunch and a dressed-up dinner. Cielo adds the rooftop element, with cocktails, open-air dining and views towards La Concha. It gives Forum that golden hour feeling Marbella does so well.
Beast brings something more energetic and modern to the mix. With Asian fusion, music, cocktails and a bold evening atmosphere, it is a great choice for dinner with friends or a more vibrant night out. The Fisherman’s Daughter adds a different kind of elegance, with seafood, champagne and a chic coastal feeling. It is intimate, refined and perfect for oysters, seafood and a more stylish dining experience.
Forum is also very strong during the day, which is important for us. Marbella is not only about nights out; it is also about beautiful everyday moments. Kofficlub gives Forum a proper coffee culture. Nybakat brings Swedish bakery warmth with sourdough, pastries, buns, sandwiches and coffee. Organic Cold Pressed Juicery adds the healthy Marbella lifestyle with juices, smoothies, bowls and wellness drinks. Planta Bistrot gives the destination a lighter, more wellness-focused dining option. Together, these venues make Forum a place you can actually use every day.
Beyond food, Forum Marbella has a strong lifestyle and shopping identity. Sandon Store & Design Studio is one of the most beautiful spaces at Forum, bringing interiors, furniture, antiques, books, decoration and design inspiration together in a two-storey concept. It gives Forum a real design personality and makes it especially interesting for homeowners, interior lovers and anyone looking for beautiful pieces for a Marbella home.
Baccara adds a premium deli and market experience, with Scandinavian influence, gourmet products, wines, meats and relaxed food moments. D’Oliva brings Spanish flavour through high-quality olive oil and gourmet products, making it a lovely stop for gifts or food lovers. Amarí de Lilia adds flowers, fragrance, candles and beauty, giving Forum a softer and more emotional side. It is the kind of boutique that makes a destination feel personal.
Lulu Eyewear Gallery brings luxury eyewear to Forum, while M&M Gold adds diamond jewellery, bespoke pieces and luxury watches. Varsity Headwear gives the destination a casual but premium Scandinavian fashion touch, with high-quality caps and a very clean, international style. These stores make Forum feel curated rather than crowded. Every concept has a clear identity.
Wellness is also part of the Forum Marbella experience. Yours brings Reformer Pilates, movement and community to the Golden Mile, making Forum a place where you can train, meet friends and continue your day with coffee or lunch. Narybu adds hair, beauty and self-care, with a refined salon experience and a focus on quality treatments. This combination of wellness and lifestyle is very Marbella, and it is one of the reasons Forum feels so relevant.
What makes Forum Marbella different is the way everything connects. You do not go there for only one thing. You might arrive for coffee and end up browsing interiors. You might book a Pilates class and stay for lunch. You might come for dinner and finish the evening with rooftop drinks. A quick visit can easily become a full afternoon. That is the beauty of Forum: it invites you to stay longer.
For us at MarbsLifestyle.com, Forum Marbella reflects the new Golden Mile lifestyle. It is international but still relaxed. It is stylish but not too formal. It feels luxurious, but in a warm and accessible way. The mix of restaurants, cafés, boutiques, wellness spaces and design-led concepts gives it a modern energy that fits perfectly with Marbella today.
Forum also feels like a year-round destination. It is not only made for high season or tourists. It works for people who live here, people who spend long periods in Marbella and people who want easy, high-quality places to return to. That is important, because Marbella is becoming more than a summer destination. Places like Forum show how the city is evolving into a lifestyle capital with strong food, design, wellness and social culture all year long.
The Golden Mile already has some of Marbella’s most iconic hotels, beach clubs, restaurants and residential areas. Forum adds something different to that mix. It is smaller, more curated and more everyday. It gives the Golden Mile a new kind of meeting point, where you can enjoy the Marbella lifestyle without needing a full plan. You can simply arrive, walk around, choose a terrace, discover a boutique, have a drink, book a class or stay for dinner.
We recommend Forum Marbella because it brings together so many things we love about Marbella in one place. Good food, beautiful design, healthy living, international style, relaxed luxury and a social atmosphere. Whether you are visiting Marbella for the first time, living here full-time or looking for a new place to enjoy on the Golden Mile, Forum is a destination worth discovering.
For breakfast, lunch, shopping, wellness, cocktails, dinner or an easy afternoon with friends, Forum Marbella is one of the most complete new lifestyle spots in Marbella. It is fresh, elegant, full of character and already feels like a natural part of the Golden Mile.
