Quick Verdict
Worth going back for the food quality and generous portions, but don't expect consistent service every visit. The location near the Cathedral and terrace seating make it work even when the kitchen's having an off night.
You want tapas with serious portions, a good wine list, and outdoor heating in the cooler months within walking distance of the Cathedral.
You're looking for a quick bite — the terrace fills up and service can drag, especially at dinner.
About Antigüedades Bar de Tapas
Antigüedades is a tapas bar tucked into the Casco Antiguo, 100 metres from the Cathedral, where the walls are lined with bottles and the terrace has heaters for spring and autumn evenings. You order media raciones and full tapas at the counter or table, and the kitchen moves fast — reviewers consistently mention getting 6 dishes at once rather than waiting between courses. The salmon tartar, lamb cutlets, artichokes, and salmorejo draw repeat visits. Portions are generous even when you ask for half-size, and the wine list is solid enough that reviewers mention it by name. The interior is decorated with antiques and bottles; the outdoor terrace is described as "particularly pleasant" with the heaters running. It's full by dinner most nights, popular with groups, families, and solo diners. Service is friendly but inconsistent — some nights attentive and quick, other nights slower and less engaged.
What Stands Out
Generous portions, even at half-size
"Porções muito bem servidas, mesmo pedindo 1/2 ración." Multiple reviewers noted getting substantial plates even when ordering media ración, with fresh, quality ingredients.
Strong wine and beer selection
Reviewers specifically praised the Rioja and wine choices. One noted they were "generous with the glass of wine." Google attributes confirm great wine list and great beer selection.
Distinctive atmosphere with terrace seating
"Door de locatie en de heaters in de luifel is het er bijzonder aangenaam zitten." The antique-filled interior and heated outdoor terrace make it a pleasant place to sit, especially in spring and autumn.
