El Colmado Ltd in Bristol, City of

Been coming here since it opened. It’s a great deli and I’ve never been disappointed

Came up from Exeter to Bristol for an exam and wanted to visit the deli. David was very friendly and they have a great range of products and parking in the area is great, I highly recommend it.

Fabulous quality Spanish produce. A different class from bland supermarket alternatives. All served with a Spanish Smile.

The food here is exceptional and authentic which we love. And the owner is just a delight to communicate with. My favourite olives come from here, Gordal and I could eat them like sweets. Great selection of meats, cheese and drinks. We will be back.

A wonderful range of Spanish produce. Now in new premises.

The best Spanish food outside of Spain! The produce is amazing and all the people who work there are really friendly and knowledgeable. Their Spanish wine is also very nice!

Excellent food and quality products. (Croquetas and queso manchego) reminds me those days in Spain. Excellent service from a lovely girl.

Very friendly owner. Lovely food

Fab shop and Davide is bloody lovely!!

Great little shop for local Spanish & Mexican things. Got some great corn tortillas here! Friendly guy that owns it as well

A delightful selection of traditional Spanish meats and cheeses. But also a variety of juicy olives and wines. I can recommend the gordal olives as they are divine. Also smoked Tetilla cheese is heavenly. We also bought Jamon Iberico which melts in the mouth. Warm and friendly chap who has owned the business now for over 10 years. I will certainly be returning to try more of the meats. You can also find great wines and beers there to match the tasty delights.

Excellent food and drink. And wonderful talking to the owner with his passion for the produce there. As a frequent Spain visitor I feel at home being able to buy what I enjoy in and around Spain. We will be back.

Absolutely brilliant, had time to explain the different meats and cheeses, and made me feel at ease. Would highly recommend

Good food and friendly service. Recommended.

Brilliant Spanish deli selling lots of delicious things

The very best olives I have ever found, including those bought in Spain, Portugal, Greece etc. Also very good meats and always a warm welcome from a friendly owner. Yes you may pay a little more, but the supurb quality is worth paying a little more for.

Great deli with an awesome selection and a friendly welcome! Cheese and meats were delicious, but the olives and paella were even better.

David es encantador, y vende productos buenisimos, recomendable 100%

Amazing shop and staf very welcoming! I recommend

Absolutely love visiting this small Spanish deli. The staff are always so helpful in assisting with selecting the amazing Spanish food on offer.

Wonderful display of Spanish food, look forward to sampling it soon and visiting again

One of the best shops in the world (in the top fifty if my memory serves me right). The chaps are so friendly and helpful, and the quality of the Spanish deli food is monstrously good. For example, the olives are to die for. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Muy buena comida española aquí todo lo que necesita y el propietario es muy amable

The man who runs/owns this store was sent by the gods to provide food to us mere mortals. He is Prometheus, bearer of fire. Every time I’ve gone in here, it doesn’t matter what I’m looking for, he’s either had it, or knows exactly where to get it. I was trying to find smoked sausage for jambalaya that I wanted to make, and the smoked chorizo he sold me absolutely made the dish. Even if you don’t like Spanish food, walking in to this shop is how you buy yourself a little bit of sunshine on an otherwise grey British day.

Lots of good stuff. Muchas gracias.

Best ever olives and loads of other lovely stuff too. And super friendly and knowledgeable folks as well.

Received a goodie box from here recently and love everything I've tried so far. Excellent produce!

Excellent selection of goods. Friendly enthusiastic service.

One of the best groceries in the world. Excellent customer service.

The food is unreal - the olives especially! The staff are so lush and helpful. And they're always upbeat and smiling, which is really nice as you pretty much always leave smiling too :)

Fantastic shop! Superb personality from the owner! Paella on a Saturday made fresh - yummy!!!

Absolutely fantastic service. Bought a gift voucher for a friend and the owner could not have been more helpful, right down to hand delivering the voucher! Selection of fine Spanish goods, will definitely be back.

Doesn’t open at the advertised times! Waited outside shop for 20 minutes at 10am, only to be told when I telephoned that they would not be opening for another 20-30 minutes! Can’t comment on the produce on sale or the service as I couldn’t even get into the shop.

My go-to shop for authentic spanish food. Very friendly and helpful, a range of meats and cheeses and traditional spanish ingredients.

Si tienes problemas en ese sitio te ayudan y encima te sacan una sonrisa. Además tiene GULAS. Creo que es perfecto

I made an online order. I needed to contact El Colmado, great customer service and excellent products. I will be buying regularly.

The guy who runs it is great, really friendly and helpful. Love the food, good selection of cheese, cured meats, and frozen croquettes.

Love Spanish food ♥️♥️😌😊 I recommend you to try it at all!!

David , the owner of the shop is always laughing and makes your shopping fun. It's a pleasure to expend money for first quality spanish products. Pd. Incredible handmade paella on sats

Gran variedad de productos, la mayoría de España y la atención buena.

Great selection of manchego cheese - truffle manchego and rosemary manchego were top off my list! They also have homemade croquettes. Best of all was the warm welcome, friendly service and advice - thank you I will definitely be back. I was only after manchego cheese and olive oil but will be back to have a longer mooch next time.

Great selection of Spanish food

Fantastic shop with the loveliest owner! It's now the only place I'll buy chorizo from, so much nicer than what you get in the supermarket

Excellent produce, picked up some morcilla, sobresada, cabrales cheese and jamon, good to be able to get proper quality, friendly service

Great Spanish deli, amazing to find this lovely gem

Not cheap, but handy. Staff always nice and helpful.

Great Spanish food, drink and advice.

Great choice of produce...spicy olives and chorizo the best 👍

Excellent Spanish produce and very friendly and knowledgable staff! They also do local home delivery via good sixty, although that does mean missing out on the lovely experience of a visit to the shop.

Such a lovely, kind man who beams with positivity! Just picked up two paella’s for our lunch and the paella’s are incredible. I want to know his secret recipe! The shop is also beautiful and the products are so lovely.

Amazing range of products, super friendly owner and delightful croquettes and olives too! Cannot praise this lovely place enough!

Best paella, best driks and best people!!!!

Great place, amazing paella and super friendly staff! Totally recommended:)

A lovely Spanish deli. High-quality products, wide selection (especially impressive given that the shop is quite small), friendly service.

This place is exciting to visit, the products sold are extremely good and tempting, the staff is experienced (they can advise and help with their knowledge of Spanish dishes) and very friendly (easy to have a pleasant chat and a laugh with them), while on Saturdays you can taste the best paella in Bristol - eat it in situ or take away. We will certainly continue to go there, it's one of our favourite treats!

Lovely food and staff were very freindly

Basically a small but authentic Spanish deli, that’s v popular with the area’s expat Spanish community: something that’s esp obvious if you visit on a Saturday when the owner serves his freshly made paella. The owner is v friendly and knowledgeable about his produce. This is one of my favourite food stores in Bristol.

Excellent Spanish deli, very friendly and helpful

Great place, people and the food is amazing. Highly recommended

una pasada los precios son abusivos

One of my favourite shops on the Gloucester Road, and with delicious paella on a Saturday

Very friendly staff and excellent products! Highly recommended

Every spanish food you need on Bristol, David has it.

Fantastic Spanish shop selling everything from chorizo to Paella, beer to olives. Friendly Spanish staff welcoming one and all.

Owner knows his stuff, excellent prices, willing to experiment with paellas

Excelent Spanish food to Bristol

Went to buy something for 50th birthday party . ... with a Mediterranean feel. I was certainly spoilt for choice. A place worth a visit.

Amazing food, real Spanish food, and now even cheaper!! Thanks

Un lugar para disfrutar cada domingo de paella y de un buen ambiente. Un 10 para el dueño, con el q seguro q te echarás unas risas. Además te podras llevar algún spanish caprichito para casa. Muy recomendable.

Trato familiar y productos de calidad.. Para disfrutarlo todos los días.

Friendly little shop, with shelves stacked full of good looking products. El Colmado also put together great little pealla kits which look great.

Super friendly place. Loads of lovely cheeses, meats, olives etc, as well as great paella on Saturdays. Good advice on Spanish ingredients and cooking techniques.

I stopped in here as I was passing and about to go and spend the weekend with friends. On a whim I asked the shop owner to put together a package of ham, cheese, crackers, olives to provide a typical Spanish lunch for four people and gave him a budget. I added a bottle of sherry and the whole lot came in under £30. It was a great lunch and it certainly impressed my hosts.

This small shop in Gloucester Road has everything you can expect from a small shop in the centre of Madrid or any other Spanish city, but the best is not that, on Saturday you can also have paella surrounded by an authentic Spanish atmosphere and the owner will gladly give advice any day with any of the Spanish recipes you want to prepare at home. Probably a unique spot not only in Bristol but in England if you really want to experience Spanish cuisine without the need of going to a restaurant.

This is a very friendly shop that brings a little piece of Spain to Gloucester Road. Good range of produce and a small area at the front where you can enjoy some tapas. On a Saturday there is paella on offer to eat in or take away. well worth a visit.

Great shop - a little piece of Spain. Bought a lovely bag of padron peppers today

Best shop around and great service. David is a great professional

I love the casual way you can drop in to this Spanish deli for A bowl of olives and a platter of bellota charcuterie washed down with a couple of glasses of manzanilla while you do your shopping. You can sit at the window watching the world go by - listening to the Spanish regulars chatting while imagining you are somewhere a long way away.

Super shop, this Spanish deli is the place to go to find everything that reminds you of your holiday, The owner is always there with a super smile and a friendly word,

Amazing variety and quality. The staff is very kind and have a lot of knowledge about all the products they sell. I stop by almost every week to get Chorizo and Jamon Iberico and Manchego chees, my favourite.

Has more than you might think! If you can't find what you are looking for just ask the friendly guy on the counter and he will usually either have it somewhere or will get hold of it for you. Just recently started to serve tapas, but I have yet to try it. It's on my to do list.

delightful guy; some fab big green olives.
