Taberna Góngora is the family taberna on Conde de Torres Cabrera in Córdoba, adapting most of its carta for coeliacs on a separate chickpea-flour fryer.
Try: Rabo de toro and boquerones
Order: Rabo de toro, then boquerones, both at taberna prices.
Tip: It closes Tuesday and Sunday, an awkward pair that catches out anyone planning a long weekend.
El Astronauta cooks mezze and a full plant-based section in central Córdoba, a vegan moussaka and vegan burger alongside the standard carta.
Try: Vegan moussaka and mezze
Order: The vegan moussaka, or the mezze spread if there are several of you.
Tip: The operator publishes no hours, though the Córdoba directories agree it shuts on Sunday, so phone ahead before building a plan.
Sojo Ribera runs latest of anywhere in Córdoba, a mixology room and river terrace on the Paseo de la Ribera that holds on until 04:00 at weekends.
Try: Bar snacks
Order: A house cocktail on the terrace before the room turns into a club.
Tip: Closed Sunday to Tuesday, and the summer schedule starts later than the winter one.
Bodegas Campos has poured in Córdoba since 1908, a warren of patios and barrel-signed rooms off Calle Lineros serving rabo de toro and salmorejo.
Signature: Rabo de toro, Salmorejo, Flamenquín
Order: Rabo de toro, the dish the house has cooked for over a century.
Tip: Ask to walk through the barrel rooms before you sit; the signed butts are a century of visiting names.
Casa Pepe de la Judería has fed Córdoba since 1928, a taberna downstairs and a roof terrace upstairs that looks straight at the Mezquita tower.
Signature: Mazamorra, Rabo de toro, Berenjenas fritas con miel de caña
Order: Mazamorra, the almond-and-bread ancestor of salmorejo.
Tip: The roof terrace is the reason to come, so ask for it when you book rather than taking a ground-floor table.
Casa Rubio sits against the Puerta de Almodóvar gate in Córdoba, a 1920 taberna renamed in 1932 and now three floors deep with a wall-view terrace.
Signature: Berenjenas con miel de caña, Tortilla de rabo de toro
Order: Berenjenas con miel de caña, then the tortilla de rabo de toro.
Tip: It closes Tuesday and Wednesday, which catches out visitors who assume a Judería taberna opens daily.
