Bodega La Mina in Sevilla, Spain | Azahar Sevilla Tapas

Updated June 2024

A legendary family-run neighbourhood bar founded in 1929, La Mina is THE place for locals in the centre to begin their evening tapeo or enjoy a light lunch out on the sunny terrace in the afternoons. There is a cosy bar space and several tables out on the terrace in buzzy Plaza de la Pescadería. Rules are clear – if you order at the bar you have to stay inside at the bar. If you’ve managed to score an outdoor table then a waiter will take your order there.

Their speciality is caracoles, small snails cooked in a spicy broth, which are only offered when “in season” (approx April-June). You can also get tasty montaditos along with chicharrones de Cádiz (sliced seasoned pork belly) and exceptional mojama (dried tuna). The beer is cold and the ambiance is warm and welcoming. There is also a good selection of sherries, including La Gitana manzanilla on tap. Give it a try for a taste of genuine Sevilla (or Sanlúcar).
