A smoky but likeable old family bodega with a faded, peeling charm, barrels on the wall and rows of dusty bottles. Its clientele is largely local and often ancient, but Bodega Manolo specialises not only in reasonably priced wine, but also in surprisingly sophisticated food: try the foie gras with port and apple, or a fresh anchovy salad with Greek yoghurt and tomato confit. Push through the bar to the dining room at the back for a table.
