There are so many restaurants in Girona that it is hard to make a choice, but these are my proposals.
Breakfast
- La Fabrica is a must, with delicious proposals. It's a meeting place for bikers. Be careful, thou, as the price becomes like a lunch.
- Casa Moner is a big bakery that have many shops. The quality is excellent, they serve organic bread, sweets, etc. You have one shop in c/ Ballesteries that specializes in xuixo (a local sweet), and in carrer Santa Clara you would have many more options. You can eat it.
Lunch and dinner
Always try to go for lunch, as often they have a menu for a very good price.
if you are vegetarian or vegan:
- restaurant Tofu is my favourite. It's asian fusion, and most dishes have vegetarian option. So you can go there with non-veggy friends and everybody will be happy
- take away: La carmanyola, in Plaça 1 d'octubre. Very nice tradition vegan dishes, at an affordable price. Cheaper if you bring your own tupper-ware, or you buy it there (and re-use it)
- another take away but with tables where you can eat is biodrissa in carrer Ciutadans, 11. The place is very nice, with vegetables to buy and a good offer for menu. The price is very affordable, less than 7 euros, and it's open until 9pm including Sundays. Only that the food is just ok, not as tasty as La carmanyola.
Otherwise:
- Normal, from Germans Roca. It's 5 min. away. Booking recommended.
- tapas: Zanpanzar, very closed to the apartment. A great atmosphere!
- romantic dinner: el Pati de la Veïna, in the same Ballesteries street. Very homy.
- restaurant Blanc, 5 minutes walk. Charming design and affordable price.
- Enjoy it, in Plaça Independencia. New spectacular fashionable resto, and the food is reasonably good. It's more the place than the food, thou.
- Le Bistrot, for an ambience from the past. Food is not very elaborated, but the place is great.
- just downstairs, La Terra! They offer good deals of hamburgers (try the vegan, delicious), juices and nice views on the river. Avoid it if it's too crowded, it may take a bit of time.
