For a true taste of Spain try Juan Sanchez Bar de Tapas on Barlow Moor Road in Chorlton. A warm, relaxed and friendly atmosphere plus traditional Spanish recipes make this an unmissable South Manchester bar. The menu is based on traditional Spanish recipes, passed down by generations; top dishes include patas bravas, Spanish omelet and chorizo cooked in red wine. Real tapas with a local twist, all of Juan Sanchez's recipes are created with fresh regionally sourced ingredients. Add on a lovingly chosen wine list from the Spanish regions of Rioja, Jumilla and Toro, to name a few, and you've got the perfect evening with friends or loved ones.

On Monday nights Juan Sanchez hosts an informal language class. Why not try out your Spanish with fluent speakers while you dine, or simply enjoy the evening as these classes are not compulsory.
