Gallo Rojo

La Macarena & Alameda de Hércules


Housed in a former factory, arty Rojo is a lively yet laid-back spot that regularly hosts concerts, readings and flamenco performances. It's also a cool place to drink, with mismatched vintage furniture, huge plate glass windows and excellent craft beer – try the house Zurda golden ale or choose from the selection of guest Sevillan and European brews.
