Food

Where can I find kosher food in Gibraltar?

Short answer

Gibraltar has a long-established Jewish community and a local kosher certification authority, Gibraltar Kosher. Amar's Bakery and Restaurant and the Abudarham kosher deli on Bomb House Lane are the main options, but supervision and opening details change, so check before you go.

Detailed answer

Gibraltar's Jewish community dates back centuries, and kosher food is easier to find here than in many places of a similar size.

Where to eat and shop

  • Amar's Bakery and Restaurant: Gibraltar's oldest established bakery, founded in 1820. Restaurant at 1 Convent Place; bakery on College Lane. Mixed menu with vegetarian-friendly options.
  • Abudarham Kosher Deli: a supervised kosher shop at 3 Bomb House Lane, useful for groceries and self-catering.

Check current supervision

Gibraltar Kosher, based at 91 Irish Town, provides kosher certification locally. Online listings are often out of date and at least one kosher restaurant has closed in recent years, so contact Gibraltar Kosher or the venue to confirm supervision and opening hours.

Shabbat and festivals

Kosher venues close for Shabbat and Jewish festivals. Plan meals and shopping ahead if you are visiting over a weekend or holiday.
