The grid quarter south of the river, an everyday residential district with traditional menu del dia rooms, neighbourhood pintxo bars and the working San Sebastian appetite.

Amara is the grid quarter south of the river, San Sebastian's everyday residential district. Traditional menu del dia rooms and neighbourhood pintxo bars feed the working city, without the Parte Vieja's crowds or prices. It is where the local appetite lives between festivals.

The full Amara food guide is still being researched. In the meantime, see the San Sebastián food guide for the places we cover, or the neighbourhood index.
