  • Neighbourhood gem
La Mancha Tapas bar was established in 1998. We have taken the humble tapa also known as an appetiser to a different level by producing authentic Spanish cuisine in racione portions for the concept of sharing.

We have created in the heart of Rochdale, a relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere – ideal for either a snack and a glass of excellent Spanish Vino or a party night out. Our friendly staff look forward to welcoming you at the Restaurant.

Everything tastes so fresh, even the salsa. The menu is very reasonably priced and between us (a party of 7) we really had a feast. We will definitely be back. Tapas is definitely my new favourite food.
