Bar Almudín
Bar Almudín in Valencia's Carmen quarter is the city's most atmospheric traditional vermut bar — a tile-floored neighbourhood tavern where Valencia CF fans conduct their Saturday vermut ritual over house vermouth, anchovies, and boquerones before the walk to Mestalla. The bar's unpretentious excellence and genuinely local crowd are the antidote to tourist Valencia, and the Sunday brunch vermut sessions are one of the most pleasurable fan pre-game rituals in Spanish football. The orange-and-white flags on the bar rail signal whose colours are always flying here.
