Located along a side street just off the main square in Totana, Tasca Pacuco is an old style traditional tapas bar. Access from the street is through a single door, down a flight of steps into the bar room. There is also a servery at street level from those wishing to sit at a small outside eating area. A well stocked bar with cured hams, sausages salamis etc hanging from the rear of the bar area runs along the right hand side of the room. Traditional tiled bar front, bare brickwork wooden panelled ceiling add to the interior decor/design. Several 4 seater tables with chairs occupy the left side of the room. Quirky chandeliers made from various coloured glass bottles hang from the ceiling. Access down a ramp at the left side of the entrance door allows wheelchair/disabled access along a passageway into the bar from the rear. Toilets are clean, tidy fit for purpose, from memory access is via a central/communal washbasin area with the respective services either side. Staff pleasant, polite, helpful efficient. This bar is very popular with locals. At the time of our evening visit the place was busy. There were no menus on display. What was on offer was verbally dictated by the staff. Only Spanish spoken, so at the least a grasp of basic Spanish is required. The tapas was basic but reasonably presented. My view is that prices were perhaps a little more expensive than other bars offering similar food. However a pleasant atmosphere dining experience. I would probably revisit, but, just for drinks if again in the locale. Give it a try you might like it.
