5 stars is not enough to overall describe "ElColmado". Relation price/quality, professionalism, service, the warmth and knowledge to be able to have the best essence and products from Spain at home! Big thank you for everything!!

First time we have ordered and it was very good, there was a small problem, but they fixed it! They gave us two more things in our order. We will buy again for sure!

Never been inside, always wanted to! Such an awesome selection of products, and really great and attentive customer service too. Bought some two types of olives - one with anchovies inside - and some truffle cheese. Absolutely delicious!

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Tried to get a drink in this bar at 10.40 last night (Friday) and was told sorry we have called last orders and can't serve you, there were 7 of us. I was always under the impression that last orders was one last drink before time at 11, but obviously not in this pub, so we ended up in Somerset House.
