Wenches serve wine and mead in clay jars and sausages grilling on an open flame right at your table. Great beer selection, great vibe, a rare find in this touristy area.

Who doesn’t enjoy drinking anything alcoholic from a mug while expertly poking a flaming sausage (chouriço assado) with your own instrument of torture? Look no further, the peasant-shirt wearing wenches at this medieval tavern have got you covered. Heavy wooden tables laden with thick earthenware cups and plates take you back to no-frills era. The bonus is that it’s not completely medieval, as they have taken the best from more recent centuries and supplied their guests with bathrooms. Parking for horses not available. Bar songs welcome. Oitava Colina IPA on tap. You read that right.
