Why Travelers Love Bodega Santa
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
A great place where you can try local food. The crowd was so big that we hardly found a place at least at bar. Which turned out to be a great thing, because the gentleman who served us was very interesting and very helpful. Although I speak little Spanish, I understood everything and it was very interesting to me. So much so that I didn't even bother to order anything, I just let him present the tapas that are the specialties of the house. It was delicious. I especially liked the Montadito de Pringa and Carillada. I would love to go back to this place. All recommendations. A real tapas bar. Not a tourist trap. All the tapas from the kitchen are at 3.10 euros. A beer 1.70 You will have a lot of food like 5 different dishes and 3 beers for 22-23 euros. Cold and hot dishes. One of my favorite is fried eggplant with honey! This place is FUN! Get ready to elbow your way (gently) to the bar, and order from a wide variety of excellent tapas. The prices are very reasonable. The bartenders are have got attitude, but in a good and playful way. They might assume you want to have a beer, but I made sure to try out various sherry wines, which they also have. Plenty of tourists, but plenty of Spaniards here, too. With a bit of luck, you can grab a table the instant one becomes free. I've walked by here 5 times in the past three days and it's packed every time. But don't give up -- just get to the bar. Or maybe you can even find a table outside. Enjoy!

I visited this spot after our tour guide recommended it, and I’m so glad I did! It was such a blast to blend in with the locals—the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The tapas were super tasty, and the service was both fun and friendly. It’s so good that it gets really busy, but that just adds to the authentic vibe. Definitely a must-stop while in Sevilla!
