Ultracomida, Restaurant in Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, Wales
Ultracomida is a small restaurant and deli on Pier Street in Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, on the Welsh coast. Floor-to-ceiling shelves filled with dry goods and bottles give the space the feel of a Spanish corner shop, with a bar area at the back serving tapas and wine.
Ultracomida was opened by an owner with a passion for Spanish food who wanted to bring that tradition to Wales. Over time it grew from a simple deli into a place that also runs a vinoteca and a seated tapas counter.
Ultracomida brings Spanish food culture to the Welsh coast of Ceredigion. The shelves stocked with Spanish wines, cheeses, and cured meats double as a small deli, so visitors can take a piece of the experience home.
The restaurant sits in the center of Aberystwyth and is easy to reach on foot from the seafront. Reservations are recommended for the seated counter, especially on weekends when the vinoteca stays open later.
The vinoteca at the back runs a vermut flight, where guests can taste several Spanish vermouths side by side, which is rare for a small venue in a Welsh coastal town. Fried bacalao, a dried and salted cod, is one of the snacks that pairs with it, bringing a very specific Catalan bar tradition to Ceredigion.
