Tapas Menu

The word "tapa" actually means "lid" and in the past every glass of sherry bought in a local Spanish bar would come covered by a slice of bread to keep the flies out!. As time went on the bread was topped with ham, cheese or fried black pudding bringing about the beginning of tapas. At Mitchel House we serve "raciones" which are larger tapas portions, perfect for sharing with friends.

How to use this menu.
We have a simple approach, you can order what you want when you want. The most popular way is to order 3 or 4 dishes to have on the table for all to taste & then follow with individual dishes for a 2nd or 3rd course and then order dessert from our a la carte dessert menu.
