La Carbonería Tavern, Seville

La Carboneria Tavern is an excellent place to stop for food, drink and flamenco dancing. It is located in the heart of Seville with many beautiful and historic buildings looming around the entrance. It is near the San Bartolome Church and numerous residential buildings that show the true heart of the city.

Finding La Carboneria Tavern may be a journey on its own. It is located at 21A Calle Cespedes with the only sign being the written word "Carboneria" next to the warehouse door. Inside the humble exterior, visitors will find live music, dancing, drinks and delicious tapas.

There is no cover charge and no fee to enter La Carboneria Tavern. Most shows start at 11 PM and last about 90 minutes. Because of the late hour and the loud music, this is not the best place for children. However, it is a great getaway for the adults in the family who want to experience flamenco at its finest.
