La Barbería

Stepping into this former barbershop in the heart of Baeza offers a masterclass in how to respect history while embracing modern culinary flair. The interior retains the character of its past life, transformed into an intimate space where local olive oil culture takes center stage. The menu leans heavily into the abundance of the Jaén province, favoring seasonal produce and inventive tapas that prioritize texture and bold, regional flavors.

Expect a vibrant, bustling atmosphere that remains welcoming rather than formal. While walk-ins are sometimes accommodated, the dining room is small and highly regarded by locals, so securing a reservation is essential. Pair your meal with a crisp white from the local Sierras de Jaén wine region to truly capture the essence of this Renaissance city.
