Where to eat near Calle Elvira
Thirty-four places fifteen minutes on foot or less from the door at number 138. Each one with its address and the walking time. In Granada the tapa comes free with the drink, so dinner can cost what two beers cost.
Getting to Calle Elvira 138 and where to park
We are in a pedestrian zone, in an 18th-century building. That shapes your arrival, above all if you come by car. Here is what to know before you set off.
