El Pintón is a contemporary Mediterranean restaurant and tapas bar on Calle Francos, 42, in Seville’s Casco Antiguo, a short walk from the Cathedral and Plaza del Salvador. Locals and visitors come for creative small plates, inventive sangria and cocktails, and a kitchen that stays open all day (source: El Pintón).
The restaurant occupies a restored Sevillian townhouse. Its airy central patio and modern décor contrast with the narrow shopping street outside. The menu reworks Andalusian and Mediterranean staples into shareable plates, and the drinks list leans on sangria variations, cocktails and Spanish wines. The atmosphere stays lively from lunch through late evening, which makes it popular with couples and groups. On Tripadvisor, it holds a 4.1 rating from more than 2,900 reviews (source: Tripadvisor).
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
El Pintón is listed as open daily from 12:00 PM to midnight (source: Yelp). Confirm current hours before you go. Spanish dining peaks around 2:00–3:30 PM and after 9:00 PM. For a quieter table, arrive at noon or in the late afternoon. You can book free online with instant confirmation (source: El Pintón Reservations). Reserving is wise on weekends and during Semana Santa and the April Feria. Order several plates to share. Afterward, walk five minutes to the Cathedral and the Giralda, or north to the shops of Calle Cuna and the Setas de Sevilla.
