01 / The spirit

Step inside,
you already feel at home.

La Bodega is, first of all, an old vine. A living arbour shaped by the seasons, filtering the sun from the first fair days of April.

Below: a blue counter, bistro chairs, a few fairy lights overhead, simple and tasty cooking with great value. Inside, we eat and dance beneath the rattan pendants.

You come for a glass. You stay for the tapas. Then for the menu. Then for the music. That's how it goes, here.

"A cosy decor, a smiling team, and most of all — this living arbour covered in vines."

02 / The arbour

A few vine stocks,
and the whole sky above.

The terrace is our favourite room. An old vine serves as the ceiling — its shade shifts with the sun, its leaves speak in the wind.

Below, the blue counter — the house signature colour — facing a brick wall where the string lights hang. Wooden tables, stools, a cactus in its pot. When the late afternoon light filters through the leaves, that's exactly why we come.

05 / The team

The house,
that's us.

Behind the blue counter, in the kitchen, in the dining room — a small, close-knit team that keeps the place running season after season.

We don't have a grand speech about it. We're just glad to see you walk in, and we cook the way we'd like to be cooked for — with good produce, a recipe we know by heart, and the time it takes.

Children & dog friendly, as always.

06 / Nightlife

And when night falls,
we push the tables aside.

Wednesday to Sunday, the kitchen closes at 10 p.m. and the bar takes over: fairy lights on, music rising, dance floor opening — until 2 a.m. La Bodega becomes a dance bar.
