Tierra Astur

Top choice in Oviedo


This particularly atmospheric sidrería-restaurant is famous for its prize-winning cider and good-value lunchtime menús. People queue for tables, settle for tapas at the bar or just buy traditional products for home. Try enormous salads, Asturian cachopo (stuffed breaded veal), giant grilled-veg platters or assorted seafood.

For longer hours and excellent grilled meats, head down the street to its sister restaurant, Tierra Astur Parrilla.
