Best Restaurants & Bars in Gros
Forget La Parte Vieja for a minute, eh? You want *real* San Sebastián? Come to Gros. The surf's up at Zurriola, the vibes are chill, and the food? Forget about it. Gros is where locals actually *live* – where the laundry hangs out the windows and you can still find a *tortilla* for a decent price. You'll find everything from traditional *sidrerías* serving up hearty meals, to trendy gastropubs like Marruma Taberna, raising the bar for pintxos. Feeling fancy? Head to Restaurante Artean Barra Abierta. Want to keep it simple? Pagadi’s got your back. And for a bit of everything, Casa Senra Donostia is a must. It's a neighbourhood where you can grab a coffee at a local *kafetegia* in the morning, catch some rays on the beach, and then settle in for a long evening of *pintxos* and *vino*. This is the San Sebastián the guidebooks don’t tell you about – the one we actually live in.
