Our favourite defiantely has to be Bar Nico's at Cassarones on the Costa Tropical, Spanish run, typical Spanish bar with loads of free tapas, Nico is very welcoming to all and best of all it is cheap.

I never go in an English bar unless I have to, simply for these reasons. ;-)

It has got to be Bar Donaire in our village, run by Amador, a charming and welcoming host who speaks English and German as well as Spanish, despite having very little formal education.

Too numerous to mention, but I did use to love Monroes in Torrevieja, hard rock music, debauched women, hard arsed men and the Guardia on the door, cant get better.

Oh and a black marble bar top, very handy in my younger days.

Why the Aralar, specifically? Any specific pintxo you'd recommend?

Surely can't be better than la cuchara de san telmo?

Never been to the one you mention...where is it? I'd heartily reccomend any pintxo from Aralar...my favorites were those little slices of bread with pastel de pescado or crab salad or smoked salmon.

La Cuchara is just off 31st August street. At the end of a very narrow street behind the san temo museum (calle Santa Korda I htink). If you manage to aqueeze your way in, I'd recommend the duck or squid - or the foix! I'll check out El Aralar, not one I'd been in before.
