Tapas and O Carballiño’s local gastronomy

When it comes to the gastronomy of O Carballiño, one is the quintessential product of this territory, the octopus, prepared above all as pulpo á feira. Such is the fame he has that they have their own fair dedicated to this preparation.

In addition to the octopus, other typical Galician products are also famous in this destination, such as dishes derived from pork, including cachucha (pork’s head) and cocido. Among the desserts are the cañas, or fried roasts, a distinctive dessert of O Carballiño.

On the other hand, O Carballiño has a varied offer in terms of food, from avant-garde culinary establishments where you can taste elaborate dishes to typical restaurants where you can try the delights of our land. You can not forget to enjoy them with Ribeiro wine, since O Carballiño belongs to the Geodestination of O Ribeiro-O Carballiño and the Ribeiro Wine Route.

We invite you to explore the streets and corners of this town enjoying the local cuisine in the different restaurants that you will find throughout the town.

Remember that on the 16th and last day of the month the village fair is held, with octopus stalls in the different streets.
