Postiguillo
About
Bar Postiguillo is a historic tapas bar located in the vibrant Arenal neighbourhood of Seville, just in front of the famous Reales Atarazanas. Built in the 18th century by the Marquis de Torrenueva, the building once served as a fish market but still retains its Roman columns and time‑worn arches. Inside, the décor pays homage to old Sevillian comedy halls, with a wooden walkway above the main room and lanterns hanging from wrought‑iron wheels, creating a warm, intimate atmosphere. The menu is a modern twist on Andalusian classics, featuring a mix of traditional tapas—such as fritters, stews, and cured meats—alongside innovative dishes inspired by contemporary cuisine. Guests can pair these flavours with the bar’s range of local wines, craft beers, and carefully selected spirits. The establishment is also famed for its extensive collection of bull‑head sculptures that line its walls, offering a unique cultural touchstone. Whether you’re strolling around Seville’s cathedral, the Arco del Postigo, or simply searching for an authentic taste of Sevillian nightlife, Bar Postiguillo provides a memorable experience against the backdrop of historic city streets, open daily from noon until midnight. Reservations are recommended for larger groups, and the venue welcomes families, food enthusiasts, and night‑livers alike.
