Pilar del Toro is a great place to meet up with friends for a drink and some tapas and is even perfect for those who want a full meal. It's a large restaurant which has plenty of dining rooms upstairs. The interiors are impressive with sofas and upholstered chairs and guests can even dine in the outdoor garden area which is complete with dining tables and a few romantic and intimate candlelit dining rooms. The menu here is as appealing as the place and consists of favorites such as roasted lamb with fig sauce, roasted striped bass with mushroom sauce or light meals like puff pastries which are either stuffed with spinach and ham or codfish with a mousseline of avocado.
If you're looking for a drink and a bit of local colour during the bullfighting season, this typical Granada tavern is worth a visit. It is actually located within one of the outside walls of the bullring, or Plaza de Toros. The atmosphere is homely, the tapas are good quality and the décor is all to do with bulls and wine. The drinks are a bit pricey compared to other nearby places, but it does have a unique location.
