Casa Morales

Updated October 2024

Founded in 1850 by the great grandfather of present owner Reyes Morales, this charismatic bar is steeped in history and is actually the oldest bar in the city to be run by the original family. Now in its fourth generation Casa Morales has a great selection of wines and traditional tapas in a unique setting. Top quality cheeses and cured meats are offered either as tapas or montaditos (small toasted filled buns), along with fabulous chicharrones by Carnicería Roiz and my favourite tortilla de patatas in the city. I love pretty much everything here, it’s really home style cooking at its best. Check out the daily specials too. But if you’re not sure what to order just ask chef Óscar to make up a selection for you, along with some house sherry or vermouth.

The front section of the bar has a store front window facing the street, and just around the corner you’ll find the side entrance to the back bar, previously the winery, with its enormous clay tinajas that used to store their house wine. It’s like walking into a time warp and finding yourself in the Sevilla of old (but without paper napkins all over the floor). Incredible value for money, terrific food,  and very helpful and friendly staff. Truly one of the most special bars in town.
