To share

La Gilda

2.50 €

The queen of aperitivo bites. Anchovy, olive and pickled chilli in one sharp, salty mouthful.

The Well-Matched Pair

5 €

Anchovy and boquerón together to prove the classics never go out of style.

Papas con Solera

€4 · €6.50

Our take on the Andalusian potato salad classic, with optional melva tuna for those who want the full southern version.

Tomato with Style

10 €

Seasonal tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil and oregano. When the produce is right, you don't need much else.

Spinach with Grace

8.50 €

Baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, goat's cheese, toasted walnuts and a honey-mustard dressing.

Caesar Salad

10 €

Romaine, crispy chicken, parmesan, croutons and our house Caesar dressing. The classic that always works.

Ensaladilla Ilustre

€4.50 · €9

Our seafood-minded version of a bar classic. Creamy, generous and done properly.

Croquettes of the Day

€4.50 · €11

Croquettes are one of our house obsessions. Ask what's coming out of the kitchen this week.

Bravas de Mala Fama

5.50 €

Patatas bravas with the house's unruly streak.

Pisto with Backbone

Slow-cooked vegetables the traditional way, with an optional fried egg on top.

Tuna Chicharrones

All the flavour of tuna in a dish that surprises anyone trying it for the first time.

Chicken Fingers

Quesadilla filled with house pringá, melted cheddar, pickled onion and lemon mayo.

Mains

The Usual Whisky

Lagartito
