Gines is a haven for food lovers, offering a wide range of traditional Andalusian dishes. Local cuisine is centered around fresh, locally sourced ingredients, with olive oil playing a starring role in many dishes. Visitors can enjoy classic tapas such as salmorejo (a chilled tomato-based soup), jamón ibérico (cured Iberian ham), and tortilla de patatas (Spanish potato omelet), all staples of Andalusian gastronomy.
Seafood is also prominent in Gines’ cuisine, thanks to its proximity to the coast. Dishes like gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimp) and bacalao con tomate (cod with tomato sauce) are popular choices at local restaurants. For dessert, torrijas (a type of sweet bread pudding) is a must-try during Easter celebrations.
Local eateries, such as Bodega La Fuente and Mesón Casa Esteban, are known for serving authentic Andalusian meals, offering visitors a chance to indulge in the region’s culinary traditions.
