Restaurant Scams in Granada

Flamenco Bar Forced Drink Minimum

Small bars and tablaos around Granada's Albaicín neighbourhood and the caves of Sacromonte advertise free flamenco shows to draw in tourists, then inform seated guests there is a compulsory drink minimum of €15–25 per person, payable upfront in cash before the show begins. The drinks provided are often small and of poor quality. Anyone who objects is told they must pay or leave, with no refund of any entrance fee already paid.
