La Gaviota

Posted by helasunshine 9 October 2007

A fish restaurant - La Menu del Dias is very cheap and popular with the locals so must be good!

Just on the road out of Alcala towards Granada. You get a bottle of wine with the meal all for little more than an English fiver. Only Spanish- speaking so take your translation with you.

On the road from Alcala La Real, Jaen, to Granada.

The Hospederia Zacatin in a family-run hostel, immaculately clean and very friendly, bar stays open until all hours and there is a roof terrace on the third floor as well, which does barbecues. There is also a good restaurant so lots of food choices.

La Parqu is the restaurant/bar in the middle of Alacala square. It is a beautiful area where all the family stroll in the evening. La Parque is a lovely friendly bar doing tapas and where you can watch the world go by.

Just off the central square

Paseo de los Alamos

Posted by chris2005 12 January 2007

This wide pedestrianised boulevard is the focal point of Alcalá la Real where people meet during their evening 'paseos'. It also plays host to the markets and fairs which take place all through the year.

The Paseo de Alamos is a 10 min walk from the bus station and is well signposted. If you get lost just ask the friendly locals.

El Llanillo

Posted by chris2005 12 January 2007

El Llanillo is the heart and soul of the town with its streets slowly winding up the hill to La Mota castle. Just get lost and seek out its hidden historic gems. Amongst the whitewashed houses with roses around the balconies are nineteenth century architectural wonders such as churches and arcades.

El Llanillo is all of Alcalá la Real! All streets leading off the central square take you into the district.
