Churros Seville – Top 5 Best Churros Sevilla
Discover the Top 5 Best Churros in Seville
Churros in Seville are a big deal, especially for breakfast or an afternoon snack. Unlike some other places, the churros here are often thicker, fluffier, and sometimes even hollow in the middle. You’ll find plenty of spots to grab some, from cafes to specialised churro bars. Locals usually dunk them in sugar or coffee, but a thick cup of hot chocolate is also a popular choice for tourists. Don’t look for them in the dessert section of the menu, though; that’s not how they do it in Seville.
Here are a selection of the top 5 places to try authentic and delicious churros when in Seville:
Seville Top 5 Churros Spots: |
1. Chocolateria Virgen de LujanChocolateria Virgen de Lujan is a local favourite for churros. Located near the historic centre alongside Los Remedios, this place serves up freshly made, crispy churros. Don’t miss their hot chocolate for dipping. It’s so thick, it’s almost like a pudding. Trust me, one portion is more than ample here for two people! Address: C. Virgen del Águila, 2, 41011 Sevilla, Spain |
2. El ComercioEl Comercio has been around for more than a century and is a Seville staple. They offer traditional churros and porras, another Spanish fried-dough pastry. The interior has an old-school feel and it’s usually packed, so you know it’s good. Address: Calle Lineros, 9, 41004 Sevilla, Spain |
3. La EsperanzaLa Esperanza offers a cozy setting for enjoying churros. Known for their light and fluffy churros, it’s a great place to enjoy a leisurely breakfast. Try their café con leche along with your churros for the full experience. Address: Av. de la Cruz Roja, 1, 41009 Sevilla, Spain |
4. La CenturiaLa Centuria is located in the centre of Seville, close to the Las Setas de Sevilla. They serve fresh churros all day long (a rarity in Seville) and they make the most incredibly thick chocolate to dip them in. My tip is to take them away and enjoy views of Las Setas whilst eating them in the sun! Again, this is the sort of place where one portion is more than enough for two people to share! Address: Pl. de la Encarnación, 6, 41003 Sevilla, Spain |
5. Calenteria Churrería LitoCalenteria Churrería Lito is a lesser-known but fantastic churros spot in Seville. Their churros are crispy on the outside and soft inside, just how they should be. Don’t forget to pair them with a cup of thick hot chocolate for dipping. Situated near the beautiful neighbourhood of Triana, this is a small cafe, with super quick service, and fresh and tasty churros! Address: C. Leiria, 10, 41010 Sevilla, Spain |
Tips for Buying Churros Seville
Best Times to Go
- Morning: Churros are a breakfast staple in Seville, so heading out in the morning will ensure you get them fresh and hot. Many churro places open early!
- Late Night: Believe it or not, churros are also a popular late-night snack, especially after a night out. Often used to soak up the alcohol!
- Weekends: On weekends, especially Sundays, locals love to have churros. Just be prepared for a bit of a crowd.
How to Order Churros In Spanish
To order churros in Spanish, it is best to say ‘Quisiera pedir churros, por favor‘ which means ‘I would like to order churros, please’. Here are some other top tips when ordering Churros in Spain:
- Know Your Quantities: Churros are often sold by the piece or by weight, depending on the place. If you’re not sure, you can simply ask for a “ración,” which is usually enough two people.
- Ask for Chocolate: If you want that rich, thick chocolate for dipping, make sure to ask for it. Not all places automatically serve churros with chocolate. Locals in Seville often just have them with sugar or coffee!
- Language: In some parts of Seville, churros can also be called “calentitos.” Just in case you can’t see them on the menu!
- Cash Payments: Many smaller churro places don’t accept cards, so it’s a good idea to have some euros on hand.
- Takeaway or Sit-down: Some places offer only take-away, while others have seating. If you plan to sit, it’s polite to order a drink as well.
