Bodegas Almau
A family-run old tavern opened in 1870 and now in its fourth generation, famous for its anchovy tapas and a wine list of about 300 labels, mostly from Aragonese wineries.
Opened in 1870 by a founder who brought wine into the city from Ainzón. Today it's run by fourth-generation owner Miguel Ángel, at Calle Estébanes 10 in El Tubo. The specialty is anchovy tapas in many styles, such as anchovies with crushed green olives, and the 'vinegar explosion', topped with tuna spread, black olives, dried tomato and Modena balsamic reduction. Also on offer are stuffed eggs, homemade croquettes and potato cakes. The wine list has about 300 labels, mostly from Aragonese wineries. The old-tavern atmosphere is strong, and it's liveliest during the early-evening aperitif hour.
