The Iberian Peninsula includes Spain and Portugal, two of the most dynamic countries in Europe. There, centuries of conquests, migrations, and trade have created a cultural diversity like few other places on the continent.
From foggy, rain-swept, and bagpipe-playing Galicia in Northern Spain to steamy Andalucia in the South (where the traces of centuries of Arab domination are still present in the culture and cuisine), it’s hard to imagine you’re in the same country. On the other hand, the culture of Portugal has always been shaped and influenced by its illustrious neighbour to the west– the Atlantic Ocean.
Drawing inspiration from the traditional cervejarias and tascas of the region, our rustic wine cafe offers a contemporary take on Iberian cuisine alongside expertly sourced regional native wines. Cafes are part of the very fabric of Europe – not just physically but emotionally, too. From elaborate Art Nouveau establishments to the most basic little pastelarias with a few metal chairs and formica tables, they play a crucial part on everyday life. They are a place to meet, chat, exchange ideas or sit quietly in contemplation of the world, through the window or with a newspaper and we hope to contribute to the age old tradition.
