My wife and i are regular diners at Ultra Comida. Often we shall just pop in for a glass of wine or sherry and enjoy the atmosphere. The lunch and evening menus have a good selection of food and i have never had a a dish i wouldn't recommend. The wine and sherry selection is outstanding. The deli means you can take many Spanish dishes home with you. I would also like to mention the lunchtime takeaway of panini and paella which are very good. It is a food and wine lovers place to go. read more

This was one of my favorite and most memorable meals in the UK. The food here is amazing Spanish Tapas food, served in a very comfortable, unpretentious setting (around one of two huge tables that you share with other guests, or at the bar). The service was personable and they were quick to bring drinks and dishes out. The food was top notch! My favorites were the basic salad, the olives, the patatas bravas, the salt cod (was amazing), and a few others that are now escaping my memory (I'm thinking we had a rabbit and a lamb and a bean dish... and a cheese/meat plate, and another salad) They will bring endless plates of excellent bread (and there is olive oil on the table). Basically, you can't go wrong here! We also got the house wine; a light and delicious Spanish wine, and very affordable. The only dish that I specifically remember our small group being lukewarm on was the octopus (was served chilled and was ok, but not amazing). After you eat (in the back), you can stop in the front of the store to buy more amazing meats, cheeses, olives, and wine to take with you! You may have a wait at times, as seating is fairly limited (we were there mid-afternoon on a Saturday in October, and had to wait only about 10 minutes to be seated). Also... I thought the price here was excellent for the quality and quantity of food. A real gem and must-do if you come through Aberystwyth! read more

Very good food, good service. There's a cafe in the shop, too. They do one of the best coffees in Aberystwyth. The olives and salamis are very good - also the wines and cheeses. Friendly staff. One highlight in Aberystwyth most certainly. I recommend buying some good food and have a picnic on the beach! ...just hope it does not rain. read more

The front of the shop is a deli of sorts, selling things such as olives, honey, oils, and other products from the Iberian peninsula. In the back of the shop is a small cafe-style restaurant, serving a select set menu which was £13 for 2 courses and dessert, as well as a list of about 15 tapas, a full wine menu, lots of lovely coffees and hot chocolate, and other treats as well. This review mainly focuses on the restaurant half of this shop. The service was quite good. We split a half-liter of sangria which was a solid amount for the two of us. My friend did the fixed menu without the dessert, and off of it, he chose the plate of Iberian meats (chorizo, salchicha, and jamon iberico) and a roasted paprika chicken with mashed potatoes. I chose two tapas: a plate of queso manchego and the paella with chicken, chorizo, and morcilla (blood sausage). My paella didn't actually come with any morcilla, which was fine as I'm not really a big fan of morcilla! Before the food came out, we were served small helpings of olives (two of which were filled with a garlic clove) and a basket of bread. The olives and bread were both fresh and tasty. The plate of Iberian meats was huge, and my fiance had a hard time finishing it. The jamon iberico was very delicious and not too salty, though he didn't particularly care for the chorizo. Next, I had the queso manchego plate. 3 of the 4 large slices were quite good, although the fourth (which I think must have been aged differently) was a bit strange tasting. The paella was absolutely fantastic. It was very light, and when topped with the lemon wedge provided, the flavors all came together quite well. My friend really enjoyed the paprika chicken and ate all of the potatoes. Each of the plates (including the tapas) were quite big, and we felt very satisfied upon completion of the meal. I also had a cafe con leche to go, too. Overall, for our meal with sparkling water, sangria, and 2 plates of food each, we paid about £29 which, compared to many of the restaurants we saw in Aberystwyth with less enjoyable food, was quite cheaper. The wait staff were all quite helpful, and our waiter even spoke to us a bit in Spanish! I told him that as a Spaniard, I was really impressed with the food here. Sure, some things could be a little better, but this was definitely the best food we ate in Aberystwyth, and the atmosphere was just wonderful. If we ever return to the city again, we will be sure to stop by! read more

I've traveled to Spain so many times, and let me say, this place beats so many great Spanish restaurants I've been to that are IN Spain. It's delicious, pretty authentic food. I ordered pan con tomate with Serrano ham and the bread was warm and the meal perfectly put together. They handled my brother's dietary restrictions very well, even making chocolate for his churros with soya milk. The service was amazing too, our server obviously had a lot on her hands but was still super great and handled my brother's allergies super well. Definitely five stars from me. Come here if you're in Aberystwyth for some great Spanish food! read more

Lovely quaint very authentic restaurant with beautiful Tapas and wine. Call to make a booking to ensure there is room for you.

This is a place. If you want to eat then they have a great menu and a few tables at the back of the deli, I think they do a lunch tapas deal as well which is great. Although it is small they have good toilet facilities and highchair so you are ok taking youngsters there. The actual deli is really good as well. Last time we went the guy helped us choose a selection of food to take home and have (we were planning on eating in but there were no seats left) We were able to taste the things he was recommending to see if we liked them and he was full of really helpful suggestions. He didn't persuade to spend loads of money like you end up doing in some places like this! I think we spent about £20 on loads of food, enough to feed 2 adults and 4 children and still have some left over for a picnis the following day. Great selection of meats, cheeses, breads, olives and anything Spanish. read more

Once you've been in and tasted what this shop has to offer, it's a difficult place to walk past. It is a deli with a restaurant at the back. I haven't ventured into the restaurant yet so can't comment but I do know that they sell the finest cheeses - local and from around the world - I have ever tasted. They always have samples of cheeses and meats to try. Their takeaway panini are too delicious for words - combining their lovely cheeses and tasty meats. Mmmmm! The staff are very knowledgeable and passionate about their subject. read more

We thought we were really fortunate when we discovered this little hidden gem in Aberystwyth. There is a wonderful deli at the front of the premises and the food on offer is absollutely excellent and exactly to my taste. At the back of the deli is a very small cafe/restaurant. There is not a lot of seating but what there is is fun. There are a few seats at the high bar and then 2 large round tables. The idea of the tables is that you share the table with whoever else is eating, or if you are a large group you should all be able to sit at the same table. The food is tasty and can be very unusual. The daily special is always a good choice as it is generous, tasty and very good value. Highly recommended. read more

Best food in Aber! Visited here whilst on holiday a few months ago and was blown away by the quality of the food. Pleased to say it's just as good today. Superb olives and bread to start, served by efficient waitresses. read more

Absolutely superb cafe/deli. There is always a large selection of cheeses and meats on offer and the sandwiches and paninis they sell are uniformally first rate. People will no doubt moan about the price but it is not really that expensive considering the quality on offer. The staff are always helpful and polite, even to students! Cannot recommend any more highly. read more

A great little deli. Their sandwiches are second to none in Aber, they're considerably cheaper as well considering what's in them. The produce is locally sourced, and the cheese selection is to die for. The service is great too. read more

Great selection of cheeses, olives and everything local & continental.

Loved the food here! I had the paella, and it was a bit on the oily side but overall very tasty. I like the communal tables which create quite a festive atmosphere and the bread and olive oil dip were divine. read more

Fantastic selection of Welsh, French and Spanish foods. The takeaway food is the best in Aber and I particularly love the Paninis.
