It doesn’t look like much from the outside and when you step in, Casa Paco still doesn’t seem to offer a whole lot. Perhaps its this kind of simplicity that attracts it so much attention and such a loyal crowd of young drinkers. Regularly swarming with visitors and with its friendly, local atmosphere spilling out onto the street, Casa Paco is a hive of activity.

There are no more than a few stools at the slim but well stocked bar and the additional space inside doesn’t amount to a whole lot. For this reason its best to hit this spot on a nice day or warm night when you can take advantage of the bar’s tables and chairs which extend out onto the pedestrianised street. This little terrace area looks out over a small playground, ideal for taking kids to in the day.
