El Convent is a popular bar and restaurant, well known for its Mediterranean flavours and its tempting selection of bocadillos, montaditos and tapas. A well-stocked bodega offers a carefully chosen range of wines, alongside a good selection of refreshing beers to suit any occasion.
Located in the lively Placeta del Convent, the terrace is ideal for enjoying the morning sun or retreating into welcome shade during warmer afternoons. It’s a relaxed spot to enjoy good food and a cold drink while watching everyday life unfold. Inside, a spacious dining area at the rear of the restaurant makes El Convent a great choice for larger groups, celebrations and private events.
The menu offers something for everyone, including younger diners, and highlights fresh local produce from both land and sea. Guests can choose from classic tapas, generously filled bocadillos, burgers, steaks and fresh fish, as well as the restaurant’s much-loved octopus. The excellent-value menú del día changes daily and includes three courses, plus bread and alioli.
