Paddy’s vin & ginbar (you can figure out what that means) is recommended by the Spanish empassy in Sweden and we understand why: pintxos and tapas are served with a serious selection of Spanish wine. But there are a number of other wine countries on Paddy’s wine list that runs over 200 references. The wine list leaning towards classically made wines, which is somewhat unusual in Malmö where many venues go for natural wines. And as the name suggests, you can find a lot of gin here too.
