A must in my opinion. Mix with the locals, see, smell and taste our flavours. An experience in and of itself. You will find the best price-quality ratio by far. Open till 2PM closed on sundays. Monday is not a good da to buy fresh fish ;-)
Behind the market on the square you can enjoy some tapas or breakfast after shopping.

If you want to taste a good home-made mojito (different from what you get elsewhere), visit this place in the lower old tow. Nice music, but not at all a fancy place. This place has been around since before i arrived in Alicante (more then 20 years ago now) and way before the mojito became a trendy, mainstream drink, and doesn't need to advertise as it is very famous among the locals (mind your head when entering)!

Love this place for montaditos, tapas and great views of the Co-cathedral San Nicolás! And not to forget the always smiling waiters!
Try the montadito called "Iván" with turrón, it won a prize in Alicante Tapeate Contest and is super hummy!

A small and quiet (sometimes difficult to find) restaurant that offers a few set daily lunch menus (at night, prics are different as in all the restaurants). The dishes are exquisitely prepared and presented.

On a side street of Co-cathedral San Nicolás you can find this tiny wine bar that serves a variety of local wines from the region as well as a few appetizers. A must for wine lovers :-)

One of my favourite tapas places. They offer affordable tapas menus, good deals, great food and friendly service. Typical Spanish restaurant, so can get loud on weekends ;-)

I think this restaurant offers the perfect combination of food, service, and location. Food and service is great and it is located in the most beautiful square (in my opinion) in town called "Gabriel Miró", filled with spectacular centennial ficus trees.

This restaurant has the title of "arrocería" (rice restaurant) and it is definitly one of the places where you can try one of our rice dishes. As they are specialised at it, their menu offers a wide range of rice dishes. By the way, in Alicante we say rice dish, not paella ;-)
