Aguaviva Terraza - Almería

We called at this place as we needed something small to eat before going to a concert. There was no menu visible so we ordered a racion of croquetas, a standard Spanish bar dish, which consists of a thick sauce flavoured with cheese, ham, oxtail or similar which is covered in fine breadcrumbs and fried. What came was a plate of what can only be called potato croquettes in the English style ie mashed potatoes rolled in breadcrumbs and fried. Not Spanish and certainly not suitable as anything other than a side dish. No flavour and we didn’t even bother to finish the dish. The final insult came when we discovered we had been charged 14,50€ for this dish nearly twice as much as I would normally expect to pay for proper croquetas using more expensive ingredients. The only reason I haven’t given this place only 1* is that service was quick. I’d been tempted by the look of this place before, but never again.

Not the best food or drinks but a nice spot to relax. We had some snacks and drinks and the staff was friendly..

Friendly staff and lots of options for free tapas. Certain tapas can cost a euro or two on top of the price of the drink, for example a mini beef burger, but that's standard practice. Not mind blowing but certainly good value and in a fantastic location.

A good terrace bar where to have a beer or wine with a variety of tapas and rations. attentive to intolerances and company and gluten-free beers.

Marvelous attention of the bartender. they also have gluten-free bread and soy drink. Very good coffee.
