The Plateros silversmiths' guild still runs this Córdoba taberna on Calle San Francisco, thick white walls set around a patio under a skylight.

Signature: Montilla-Moriles by the glass, Cordobés tapas

Order: A copa of the house Oro Viejo with whatever tapa the bar suggests.

Tip: The staff swap every round plate on the table for a square one when a coeliac sits down.

Taberna La Fuenseca sits on Calle Juan Rufo in Córdoba, a wooden-bar house on the city's historic-taberna register pouring fino en rama by the copa.

Signature: Fino en rama, Cordobés tapas

Order: Fino en rama, poured cold, with whatever is on the tapa board.

Tip: The kitchen stops at 23:00 and the place shuts Mondays, so it is an early-evening rather than late stop.

Signature: Montilla-Moriles generosos, Cordobés tapas

Order: An amontillado with a plate of whatever the bar is frying.

Tip: The midday service runs Wednesday to Sunday and the only dinner sittings are Friday and Saturday, so plan an evening visit for the weekend.

Barra y Mesa Taberna ★ 4.4

Andalusian€€centroMon-Tue 13:30-16:00; Wed-Sat 13:30-16:00, 21:00-23:30; Sun closed

Barra y Mesa is a small wooden-counter taberna in central Córdoba pouring Montilla-Moriles beside salmorejo, flamenquín and slow-cooked rabo de toro.

Signature: Salmorejo, Flamenquín, Rabo de toro

Order: Rabo de toro, cooked down until the meat leaves the bone on its own.

Tip: It closes on Sunday and serves dinner Wednesday to Saturday only, and the room is small enough that a booking matters.

La Taberna de Almodóvar ★ 4.2

Andalusian€€centroMon-Fri 13:00-16:30, 20:30-23:30; Sat 13:30-16:30, 20:30-23:30; Sun 13:30-16:30

La Taberna de Almodóvar pours fino en rama over a wooden bar in central Córdoba, with salmorejo and flamenquín run as the everyday counter order.

Signature: Salmorejo, Flamenquín

Order: Salmorejo first, then the flamenquín, in that order and no other.

Tip: Sunday is lunch only, and the kitchen shuts firmly at 16:30 before the evening service.

La Taberna de Trasmallo ★ 4.2

Andalusian€€centroWed-Thu 12:00-24:00; Fri-Sat 12:00-01:00; Sun 12:00-18:00; Mon-Tue closed

La Taberna de Trasmallo has worked Avenida Doctor Fleming in Córdoba since 2009, a wooden-bar room pouring fino en rama beside the city's standards.

Signature: Salmorejo, Flamenquín, Rabo de toro

Order: Flamenquín with a copa of fino en rama alongside.

Tip: It runs straight through from midday, which makes it useful in the dead hours when tabernas shut.
