The 11 best spots for happy hour in Oviedo

It was our 1st meal at Oviedo when we visited, and we liked the food. The service was top-notch and the place is located right at the center of the old town. Recommended if you are looking for a place to eat in the old town.

Great food here! Good value as well, very good waiter that remind us not to order too much and we are glad we listen, if not gonna hav lot of food wasted! We are a table of 3, we are very full at the end!

Gato Negro provides exceptional value in the middle of Oviedo by providing Asturian specialties and of course, cider. While the food is rather on the rustic side, it is still very good for the price and the portions are generous. We ordered a bunch of dishes from fish to salad, deli meats and cachopo (a little dry on the cachopo, left me seeking a better one). Of course, this is saddled with generous portions of the local cider which tends to be on the bitter side (and that’s a positive). Lastly, we thought the lively atmosphere inside was unbeatable, people enjoying their meals in a fun room. Service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended while in Oviedo. P.S.: please leave a 👍 if this review was useful in making your choices, thanks 🙏

24.Dec. I highly recommend to book tables in advance as during special season they only work with reservations. We were nine and shared all the food ordered. The dishes were quite big so it’s good for sharing among 3-4 persons. Once we have the food ordered. The waiters will arrange them in the best way to eat, according to the practicality and taste combinations. Everything came pretty fast. La fabada Asturiana was delicious and super appealing for a cold winter. The local food cachopo was nice too, meat was fresh and juicy. The rest of the dishes were not bad either. The two salads from the pictures were fresh and good to go with all the fish and meat we had. Lastly, the dessert didn’t feel homemade which disappointed a bit. But the service was great and all the staffs were attentive and nice. Check it out if you’re in the centre of Oviedo (near casco viejo and ayuntamiento).

Honest and clear explanation of dishes not on the menu and their price. Fast and professional service, but more importantly, great food! Zamburiñas, Cazuela de pescado y Black Monkfish

Amazing food and service, best entrecôte and calamari. I didn’t have time to take photos becsuse it was so good. Fish was also very good. Sider is amazing. Our waiter Micky was amazing also.

A strike of luck that gave way to an unforgettable dinner! Got there at 8pm and managed to get a table by the bar - otherwise they were fully booked for the next week and more. We followed the waiter’s suggestions and had the best bonito of our lives!

Frankly a bit disappointed with the food from the establishment. The cachopo was really tough to eat, as were the lamb chops. It's a busy festive restaurant but I guess not for us.

We had to wait for a bit to get a person to take us to a table. But the food was great, the service was fast/efficient, and the vibe of the restaurant is very classy and beautiful. I do recommend for people to share some of this plates that are big and filling for two to three people.

Atmosphere is great. Location is in very busy pedestrian area. Staff seemed uninterested when we approached to ask if there is a free table on the terrace. We have found it ourselves few minutes later when other guests left. Food is good, but to be honest I have expected more regarding the prices and reviews.

I usually try to avoid touristy spots, but this time I was really hungry and ended up here. I asked the waitress for a recommendation and went with the meat she suggested which is in the photo. The food arrived fairly quickly, but unfortunately it was a letdown. The fries were greasy and tasted like they’d been fried twice in old oil. The meat was rubbery and totally flavorless. The cider was nothing special either, though the way they pour it is kind of fun to watch. Wouldn’t recommend this restaurant, there are much better places just a few blocks away from the main street.

We tried the local specialties, but the size of the "Gran cachopo vaca" was too big 🥶🤪

The interior is strange in this bar/restaurant. It has design, but has also a touristic vibe. The menu is a complete photo album. But, the food is excellent and is reasonably priced. Drinking is cheap. Kitchen is still open, when al restaurants in the neigborhood are closed

The atmosphere was really nice and cool looking. The food however was disappointing, specifically Las Costillas Asadas, that my dad got. Given the cut of the meat we were assuming it was going to be a lot juicier, but it was extremely dry that he couldn’t finish it. As a starter we got the Huevos Rotos with the chorizo which was really good. However, my plate ( los escalopines de ternera ) never came, even though they had taken my order but never put it in, so we decided to just remove that from the order and leave. I would like to add that this is specifically just our poor luck, but also something to keep in mind.

Everything was perfectly cooked but we both found the sweet and savoury combination of ingredients didn’t work. It was Sunday night and the waiters were evidently exhausted but the service as efficient and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. There is lively bar area to enjoy a draft beer before eating.

We just walked in around ‘lunch’ time. We ended up with heavenly tapas, perfect wine and a postre from heaven. The perfect setting in a historical town, tranquilo and a place for everyone; the 80 year old neighbour sits along the tourists (me😁) and enjoys the drinks and a tapa. Perfect food and service. !Hasta luego!

Great little bar restaurant! Wine list is superb. The waiters are outstanding. The food was pretty good.

We ordered croquetas, two types of rice (lobster and jamon paellas), a wine and two deserts with coffees. We were exploring the city for the second time and decided to stop nearby given it’s a rice house and we wished to taste the paella. We ordered the croquetas and stated we wanted 6 as we were a group of 4 but some of us do not eat as much. Same with the paella, we chose two types and mentioned it was to share since we do not like to fill ourselves. The waiter confirmed the order and came in with 10 croquetas instead of 6. We asked him to repair the mishap as we really didn’t want to eat more and it was quite a difference in the price. From that point onward we received attitude for our service. The paella came and I tried the lobster (just to try as I myself am not too much of a sea food lover). Asked for a different plate as I did not enjoy the taste of it (my opinion, other members of the table enjoyed it) and proceeded to request a new plate so I could eat the jamon paella without mixing the flavours. That request was met with the waiter shaking his head whilst grabbing me a new plate. When asking for the bill, we were negatively surprised that all paellas were doubled in price in their description and such was never communicated with us. We genuinely thought we were eating the normal size paellas. The menu also stated that the paellas were for 2 people so that was our math (2 paellas = 4 people). The waiter proceeded to inform that it was not possible as the described price on the menu was for one paella but the minimum amount of each item was 2 (always in pairs, so we couldn’t even order 3 for example…) So if the minimum amount per item is 2 but you can never order 1 item only, then the price in display it’s misleading and the information passed down is plainly wrong. We felt mistreated, misinformed and taken advantage of. Although the food is indeed good, the surprises and service received do not amount to a good experience.

We had tuna salad with mango and asparagus which was enough for 2 as a starter and was delicious. We had the pasta noodles (Fideua) with Octopus and scallops which was also excellent. Hazelnut ice cream good. Good service, good food, nice room. Monday night.

In oviedo every couple of months 1st time in here and definitely a favourite already

We visited the restaurant in August 2020 (COVID-19 happening) and the restaurant managed all the health protocols very well. The best restaurant characteristics are: 1) Menu’s offering: there are 2/3 menus with a fantastic relationship between price and quality. 2) Food quality: the food is amazing: freshness, amount and preparation process. 3) Service: the waiters personality and predisposition is very good. They are in all the details. I’m sharing some photographs for you to have an idea of the menu food quality and amounts (I’m not including 2 desserts, bottle of water and bottle of wine; also included in the menu).

Good food, obliging service in Cider Street in Oviedo.

It’s along Gascona street so we appreciate getting a seat indoors. We called in advance for the dinner reservation. The chipirones 🦑 was absolutely good! The susurro del cerdo was reminiscent of a Filipino favorite dish “sisig” — we enjoyed the meal a lot. :) Cerdo + squid + 2 bottles of sidra + agua con gas = 51,60€

Nice terrace, very friendly staff. In a bustling street amidst many bars and restaurants.

Great place to eat at Calle Gascona (Bulevar de la Sidra), specially if you stay outdoors at the Terraza surronded by Sidra green bottles professionally opened all the time by the experient Camareros. We tried the typical Huevos Rotos con sabadiego (sabadiego is a typical smoked sausage from Asturias) 👍... and the traditional Cachopo (2 steaks with Asturian Queso Cabrales and Jamon Iberico in the middle) 👌. The Price worths the Quality and quantity but I recommend just the Cachopo for 2 people.

The staff are friendly and welcoming to customers. This place prepares authentic Asturian cuisine using locally sourced ingredients. The Cachopo antiguo, a traditional version of the hearty dish, is a must-try. But don’t forget to finish your meal with the Torrija asada, a roasted French toast served with ice cream—an unforgettable dessert experience!

Avoid if you are not a local!!!! We speak enough Spanish to get by, but for any foreigner hoping for a warm Asturian experience, this is the worst place on all of 'Cider Street'. From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel like an inconvenience. Despite the restaurant having plenty of free tables, we were ushered straight to the very back, next to the toilets, without a single word of welcome. The service throughout was just as bad. At no point did any of the waiters smile or make any effort to assist us. When we mentioned that we might order more food later, the waiter snapped back, “You need to make sure you leave by 10,” even though it was only 8:30. Throughout the hour, our cider glasses sat empty as staff repeatedly walked past, deliberately ignoring us. Had the experience been better, we would have happily spent another €50 on more food and drink—but instead, we took that business across the road to Sidrería Tierra Astur Gascona, where we were welcomed with smiles and treated with genuine hospitality. The difference was night and day. A quick comment on the food we did have: Croquettes: 7/10 – nothing to complain about here. Patatas bravas/alioli: 4/10 – very few potatoes (only 8), and they were exceptionally salty. Bread: Not served with any butter or olive oil, though the latter was provided upon request. Overall, if you’re reading this as someone from outside Oviedo, please take your business elsewhere on the street and enjoy a far better night than we had.

Fantastic sidreria bar in the main sidreria street, Gascona. Relaxed, great drinks, great snacks.

Went very excited to try some Vermouth. Was faced by a waiter saying: we're closed. There was a table of 4 or 5 people still sitting (maybe eating or not). I asked: even for a quick drink it's closed? He said: yes, we're closed until Tuesday. It was 5pm. The way I was treated, coming from Los Angeles to Asturias excited to try Vermouth wasn't right. Plus seeing others still sitting eating/drinking and refusing service to me isn't kind and definitely not appreciated, especially when the listing says they're open until 11pm and it was just confirmed 2 weeks ago. See photo attached. I drove far and under the rain.... manners needed as well as an update of business hours. Cheers!

They have four different styles of tortilla. Great spot to stop for a quick breakfast and a coffee. Or a big glass of wine at 11AM if that’s your jam.

Indifferent service, plopping down two gasses of vermouth (sweet Martini, nothing special). No accompanying small tapa, no follow up on what we wanted to order next, the atmosphere was a downer. There are way better bars in Oviedo!

OMG! It is soooo good! And the BEST PART are Tino and Isma. And Carmen 😊of course 😘

Really tasty home made vermouth, as well as delicious tapas! Friendly and professional service.

Great bar which perfect food and position

THE place to have a vermouth before lunch. Iconic. Very busy weekday lunchtimes, pretty deserted by mid-afternoon. Obligatory to have a coated prawn tapa (not free) - not that they're good, just that they're the speciality.

Fine, as always. I came with a friend to have a drink, wine for him, beer for me. Friendship around, so good. Good .... and cold at the same time. A mix of good feeling out of the place, product and professional service, fine, and sadness, sadness out of one small group of local people but angry people, not easy with so many tourist invading his intimacy. Why?

Very good an friendly service, reasonable prices espacially with the menu. The menu was one of the best so far in Spain and more or less typical asturian food. Learned how to pour sidra there :)

Typical bar in #Oviedo. If you're looking to drink and eat for little money, this is your place. #LowCost! Typical northern food, full of calories and flavor. They are not healthy food dishes.

Classic place to have a drink before going dancing. People buy their drink and then go outside to deink it in the square ehile chatting with friends. Very good prices

Highly recommended for everybody who is coming to the city. They have cheap products, with a open space and with a lot of chairs for meetings or whatever.

Siempre! Cheap drinks and tasty eats at this friendly not-to-be-missed institution in Oviedo. Popular with all.

The classic of all classic bars in Oviedo. The free tapas when you order a drink are delicious.

Great bar/social place. Live concerts, books and chill, open mic, surrealist decoration. Definitely interesting.

Very nice chill environment, with good concerts on a weekly basis.

Nice querk place. Good beer and good live bands.

Concert was nice. The drummer, Pablo, was awesome!

Rustic ambience, good place nonetheless.

Nice place.

Rock and roll

Cozy atmosphere inside, and terrace if you're used to the cold.

Open late if you like to party all night

Very cool place!

(Translated by Google) Good place to have a couple at the start of the night. In summer, most people go out to drink in the square, which makes the place very uneasy.

En verano la mayoría sale a beber a la plaza, lo que desahoga mucho el local. Dentro hay algo de sitio para sentarse en grupo, rodeados de decoración bonita, música guapa y buen ambiente en general.

I love chicote 😎 (Original) És el único sítio q voy de fiesta , el q ama lá electronica os recomiendo para mi és el único sítio eñ Oviedo q te sientes en casa, viajas cm su música , los camareros demasiado y sin hablar de mi camarero Estrella yoni hahahahaah es demasiado ultra mega atento siempre me atiende cm si fuera de casa , siempre q vengo de afuera traigo a mis amigos extranjeros allí y alucinan que un lugar tan pequeño sea tan mágico x su música electro house ….

(Translated by Google) What time is it? It's a bar where you feel at home, from the first to the last. I personally know Joni and Jonas, but all the bartenders from the first to the last are charming. Rock during the week, Hip Hop on Thursdays, techno on the weekends. What can I say about the €1 beers on Thursdays? For me, it's by far the best bar in the city. (Original) ¿Que hora es? Es un bar en el que te hacen sentir como en casa, desde el primero al último. Yo personalmente conozco a Joni y a Jonas, pero todos los camareros del primero al último son encantadores. Rock entre semana, Hip Hop los jueves, techno el finde.

(Translated by Google) The most delicious cocktails pass the years and continue with their essence 🍹and are very well priced (Original) Los cócteles más ricos pasan los años y siguen con su esencia 🍹y muy bien se precio

(Translated by Google) What can I say about this site in a few words? This is THE TEMPLE. They have watering cans and shots that are scary, they are delicious and made with love and care, so you can assure that the service is spectacular, with the staff numbering 10, attentive, friendly, etc. They love their work or at least they transmit those feelings. If you go out at night in this place, and you like to listen to some pop rock music from the 2000s... you're already taking a while to stop by (Original) ¿Qué decir de este sitio en pocas palabras? Esto es EL TEMPLO. Tienen unas regaderas y unos chupitos que meten miedo, están riquísimos y realizados con cariño y esmero, por lo que se puede asegurar que el servicio es espectacular, siendo el personal de 10, atentos, simpáticos, etc. Les mola su trabajo o por lo menos transmiten esas sensaciones.

(Translated by Google) Jose and his staff are lovely. They serve the largest variety of cocktails in Oviedo, with and without alcohol, at good prices. International commercial music far from traditional pachangue. (Original) Jose y su personal son encantadores. Sirven la mayor variedad de cócteles de Oviedo, con alcohol y sin él, a buen precio.
