Personal comments
Bar restaurant "La Venta": very cheap and good meal, Bar Rafalete in te mall "El Arcangel" for its "pinchitos" and "lechuga al ajillo", a lot of bars in "Ciudad Jardin" to have a drink, botellon in Gran via Parque from Thursday to saturday night, avoid the touristic "Juderia" area because it is very expensive.
