Me encanta escuchar jazz en vivo. Y aún mejor cuando viajo. Así que cuando descubrí este lugar mientras exploraba las zonas de Regina y San Gil en Sevilla en un viaje reciente, supe que querría volver esa noche. La visita estuvo bien. Llegué sobre las 8 p. m. y el espectáculo empezó unos 15 minutos después. Me senté en la barra y pedí una cerveza artesanal de su pequeña y cuidada carta. El amable camarero me explicó cómo funcionaba la cosa. No hay que pagar entrada, pero se dona en frascos repartidos por el local; piden 0,50 céntimos por cada intermedio. Me quedé todo el espectáculo y puse 5 € en el frasco, y no hubo problema. El chico de al lado puso 25 €. La decisión es tuya. El jazz estaba buenísimo, los sets eran sustanciosos, la cerveza estaba deliciosa. Hay un menú de comida limitado, pero soy intolerante a la lactosa y todo lleva queso, así que simplemente disfruté de mi cerveza y de la música. Si viviera en Sevilla, sería un cliente habitual y si vuelvo a la ciudad, me aseguraré de volver a visitar El Gallo Rojo. * * * I love listening to live jazz. Even better while traveling. So when I spotted this place as I explored the Regina and San Gil areas of Sevilla in a recent trip, I knew I'd want to come back that evening. The visit was nice. I arrived around 8pm and the show started about 15 minutes later. I sat at the bar and ordered a craft beer from their small and well curated list. The friendly bartender explained how things work. There is no cover charge but instead you donate in jars scattered around the place. They ask .50 cents for every interval. I stayed for the whole show and slipped €5 into the jar and that was fine. The guy next to me put in €25. So it's really up to you. The jazz was hot, the sets were substantial, the beer was delicious. There's a limited food menu but I'm lactose intolerant and everything has cheese so I just enjoyed my beer and the music. If I lived in Sevilla I'd be a regular and if I go back to the city I'll make a point of visiting El Gallo Rojo again. read more

Gallo Rojo - Esperando para la musica anoche. | Waiting for the music tonight. - Cafeteria Near Me - Seville, SE

Dropped by here on a whim while in Spain, right around opening time on a Friday afternoon in November. Was drawn to the unique space with colorful outdoor windows installed on the 2nd floor overhang areas. (Check out the pics!) and the open lounge space with an eclectic, bohemian decor. It reminded me of spaces in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. There was only one staff member around, setting up as they had just opened and it was completely empty. Spoke with him and found out this is a joint venture with several of his friends--a concept to create a wine bar that doubles as a co-working/performance/community space, the rooms upstairs being the main coworking areas. Looking around I could see some speakers and guitar stands set up in one corner of the room. They have a few beers on tap, including one they brew themselves, and serve mostly wines and mixed drinks otherwise. No bar food but they have a few desserts, mostly cake and pastries. Tried their house beer and it was ok, it was early so didn't try any other drinks. Found it inspiring that the owners' vision was to create a space to build community and showcase local artists, love the concept! read more
