đ· Bar Baratillo: Sevilleâs Authentic GemâAffordable, Delicious, and Unmissable Nestled near Seville Cathedral, this no-fuss spot is a love letter to traditional Spanish cuisine. Locals and travelers alike flock hereâand once you taste the food, youâll see why. Itâs the kind of place that makes you think, âThis is what Spanish dining should feel like.â đ Why Itâs a Must-Visit Prime Location: Steps from Seville Cathedral and the Guadalquivir River. After eating, stroll along the waterâsunset views + a full stomach? Pure bliss. Budget-Friendly Magic: âŹ10â20 per person (we fed 3 people for under âŹ38!). Bonus: Free bread and crackers to startâno sneaky cover charge here. Authenticity: No tourist traps, just honest, home-style cooking. The menu reads like a greatest-hits of Spanish comfort food, and every dish tastes like itâs been perfected over decades. đŽ Standout Dishes Cola de Toro (Oxtail) đ The star. Four massive pieces of oxtail slow-cooked until they melt in your mouth, swimming in a rich, savory sauce. The potatoes on the side soak up every drop of that brothâsoft, flavorful, and addictive. Youâll want to lick the plate (but maybe donâtâlocals might judge). Pulpo Asado (Grilled Octopus) đ Two plump octopus legs served with crispy potatoes. The texture is perfect: tender but with a satisfying chew. Note: Itâs sprinkled with coarse salt, which can be a bit muchâwash it down with a drink, and youâll be fine. Honorable Mention: Garlic Shrimp (Gambas al Ajillo) đŠ I skipped it this time, but friends rave about it: plump shrimp cooked in garlicky oil, fragrant and slightly spicy. A classic for a reasonâorder the tapa size to try it risk-free. đ Practical Tips Hours: Busy during peak times (7â9 PM). We waited 10 minutes at 7:30 PMâshort enough to chat with friends while you wait. Flexible Sizing: Most dishes come in plato (large) or tapa (small) portions. Perfect for sampling without overcommitting. Drinks: Pair your meal with a local beer, sangria, or even a simple sodaâtheyâve got something for everyone. Bar Baratillo isnât just a restaurantâitâs a slice of Seville life: warm, unpretentious, and full of flavor. For under âŹ40 for three people, itâs proof that great food doesnât need to cost a fortune. #SevilleEats #AuthenticSpanishFood #BudgetTravel #TapasLovers
