Bodegas Campos
One of Córdoba’s buzziest hang-outs since it opened in 1908, this rustic-looking house serves some of the most raved-about food in the city. There’s a scenester’s tapas joint at front, a cosy wine bar at the back, and a damn fine restaurant in the middle.
32 Calle Los Lineros, 14002 Córdoba, Spain

El Churrasco Restaurante
Pricier than most, but worth a bit extra, this Moorish-style hotel restaurant is renowned for its excellent grilled meat and fish, as well as the spicy sauce it’s named after.
16 Calle Romero, 14003 Córdoba, Spain
(+34 95 726 4863)
Restaurante Choco
Book ahead at Kisko Garcia’s ever-busy eaterie, where you’ll be faced with an inventive modern take on Córdoban cuisine. Look out for the lobster carpaccio.

Senzone
The Palacio del Bailío’s in-house eaterie marries fine-dining finesse to traditional Andalucian cuisine. It has a glass floor looking down on Roman ruins, and the two-floor walls are adorned with Juliet balconies and 18th-century Tuscan-style frescoes.
10–12 Ramírez de las Casas Deza, 14001 Córdoba, Spain
1 Calle Romero, 14003 Córdoba, Spain
Taberna Casa Pepe de la Juderia
Or just ‘Casa Pepe’ to the locals, this three-floor eaterie in the Jewish quarter has eat-at-the-bar tapas fare, as well as a sun-tickled dining area upstairs where you can enjoy the same local specialties while resting your sightseeing-weary feet.

Jazz Café
Don’t even think of turning up before midnight at the this Cuban-style Córdobese institution. Live musicians perform more or less every night and any punter with jazzy inclinations is encouraged to participate in the regular jam sessions.

La Paloma
The beautiful Plaza de la Corredera overflows with cafés and bars and this little tapas place in an old house is one of the most pleasant to chill out in. The snackish menu never disappoints and the service is commendably warm.
