Las Palmas Tapas Scene

Las Palmas offers some of the most delicious and diverse tapas options in all of Spain. From seafood dishes like “Gambas al Ajillo’ (flambéed shrimp with garlic & chilli) to local specialties like “Papas Arrugadas con mojo’ (boiled potatoes with a local sauce), there is something for every palate.

If you are new to the world of Spanish tapas, the best way to get started is with a traditional “tapa de la casa’. These are usually house-specialities put together using whatever ingredients the chef has available. It’s a great way to sample a range of dishes without breaking the bank.

There are plenty of places to experience the tapas scene in Las Palmas, but here are some of our favourites:

• Casa Eugenio, located in the historic Vegueta district, serves up fresh seafood, salads, and some of the best pinchitos (grilled skewered meats) around.
• Jeronimos Bistrot is a popular spot that offers traditional Spanish tapas alongside Chilean, Peruvian, and Mexican dishes.
• Taberna Lobito is a great place to get your seafood fix with their famous ‘pescado frito’ (fried fish), razor clams, and ‘pulpo a la Gallega’ (octopus in a garlic dressing).
• La Cazuela is another great choice, specialising in traditional Spanish cuisine with an emphasis on local ingredients.

Most tapas bars open around 8pm and stay open until 1am or 2am depending on the day of the week. Keep in mind that it is customary to order a drink with your meal at many of the tapas spots in Las Palmas, so be sure to budget for drinks along with your meal.
