Bodega Tapas Bar

A long-running Ash Street tapas and wine bar serving Spanish and Mediterranean small plates in the centre of Bowness.

Bodega Tapas Bar is a long-established Bowness venue built around Spanish and Mediterranean-style small plates. The Ash Street location suits sharing food over drinks, with tapas making it easy for groups to order a spread rather than commit to separate traditional main courses. Wine and a full bar are a major part of the experience.The restaurant sits in the compact old centre close to St Martin’s Church and the lake. Outdoor seating may be available depending on conditions, while the indoor space can become busy during peak holiday periods. If you are planning a larger meal or visiting at a popular time, booking ahead is sensible.
