Travel from one bar to another and taste a new sensation at each location. Considered one of the best streets to get tapas in Northern Spain, Calle del Laurel will not disappoint an eager palate. During the afternoon and evening families and students pack the narrow street and get their fill of tapas and crianzas (beer). But the busiest time of the year is in the middle of September when the Rioja Wine Festival arrives. People stomp grapes, drink excessively, and the bars on Calle del Laurel compete over who has the best tortillas, kebabs, lamb cutlets, and seafood dishes. Come hungry, because if you follow the locals and sample what each bar has to offer, you will certainly end the day with a full belly.
