This typical Aragonese tavern is decorated with still lives and blue pottery from Muel. Their migas (small pieces of fried bread) with ham and grapes have the taste of homemade food. When you try the roast lamb, you'll know it has been prepared by someone well versed in the secrets of roasting, and if you happen to order salmorejo eggs, remember that achieving such perfection is not easy. For dessert, try fig ice-cream with walnuts - as fresh as you can get. And to drink, you must have one of their excellent Aragonese wines!

This Irish pub has certain distinguishing features which set it a bit apart from its increasingly numerous relatives in Zaragoza, where not many places have such international appeal. For one thing, the clientele includes many foreigners, especially from the Anglo-Saxon world, and some of the staff are Irish. Furthermore, the pies on offer are highly recommended, and, occasionally, live folk music is performed. There is Guinness, of course, as well as Kilkenny and other beers to choose from. For all these reasons the bar is often full despite its considerable size, especially on weekend nights, being a popular place among students and professionals of all ages.

Churreria La Fama is a café located upon Calle Prudencio in the Spanish city of Zaragoza.

They do so cheerfully. This is one of the best places to taste and try extremely traditional Spanish sweet dishes. It is open through the week from 8a onwards.
