Housed in the old Book Exchange building in the heart of downtown Durham, Mateo Bar de Tapas is a stylish tapas bar that celebrates traditional Spanish cuisine in a warm and welcoming setting. The delicious and ever-changing menu takes diners on a journey to Spain where dishes boast fire-engine-red peppers, huge black olives and golden dollops of the smoothest virgin olive oil. In true Spanish style, eating and sharing good food is a celebration to be shared with friends and family, and this vibrant atmosphere shines through in every corner of the restaurant. Savor delicious delights such as smoky jamón Ibérico (cured ham) and crispy croquetas de Pollo (chicken croquettes) to melt-in-your-mouth patatas bravas (spicy, marinated potato cubes), accompanied by fine wines from across the country.
