Here’s the inside track a few of our favourites:

Castizo

Embracing the authentic and traditional elements of Sevillana gastronomy, this traditional bar space is located in the heart of El Arenal. By recreating a genuine neighbourhood bar, and combining Seville’s cultural traditions with contemporary influences that can be seen in the design as well as in the menu, Castizo offers a new way to experience tradition. Step inside this local bar and it’s cool design will embrace you with not only tradition, like the marble mosaic floor, but also a sense of fun (the loo has walls covered in dominos), while the main space has some cool contemporary design.

Here we tried memorable dishes, including Zamburiña scallops with chorizo, Chicharrones (pork belly rind) marinated in lime, low temperature cooked and then fried so super crispy on the outside and soft inside – as well as Seasonal mushrooms, Classic fried eggs and potatoes but with juicy prawns and Hake with roasted leeks, almonds and manzanilla sauce.
