entrevinos a fantastic wine and tapas bar in Ronda Andalusia

From the bullring walk uphill (away from the new bridge) and you will find Calle Pozo on the right in a hundred metres or so. Entrevinos has a fantastic selection or local and national wines with exceptional tapas to match. The place is quite small so try to get there early. Its pretty much standing room only but for an afternoon or early evening snack this is the place to be before you go off for a main meal somewhere else. Or, do what I do, and just keep ordering until you can’t eat anymore :)

carmen de ronda restaurant in ronda andalusia

This is a superb restaurant with an impressive wine selection and dishes made in house from local ingredients. Located in the Plaza de Parcent the place looks quite small from the outside but has a largish dining room upstairs. I would recommend popping in to reserve your table as it fills up quickly.  The house paté is exceptional as is the Iberian ham for starters and the selection  of meats is impressive. If you are vegetarian then just tell the waiter and the chef will prepare you something quite special.

With an Asian/Spanish fusion the tapas at Tragata are unforgettable and delicious, one of my favorite places to snack in Ronda! It is a small restaurant that fills quickly so get there early or make a reservation. A small wine collection but very high quality that merges with the fine food. Try the calamari sandwich or the salmon and oysters!

Open everyday 1pm to midnight

Located in one of the oldest neighborhoods (Barrio San Francisco and Almocabar Gate) The kitchen here serves fantastic traditional cuisine of the region, strongly influenced by the Mediterranean diet, with a variety of rich, healthy and balanced dishes La Bodeguita San Francisco has a large and excellent variety of local and national wines. If you want to dine inside then a reservation is obligatory as the place is popular with locals and fills up quickly. In fine weather you can dine outside in the plaza where there are plenty of tables. Still, the popularity of this place means that even the outside tables get snatched up quickly, especially on weekends.
