A riverbed with no river in it, two markets and a night out at the beach end. One day, done properly.

Orxata is a tiger nut drink served cold with a long sugared bun for dipping. Do not order coffee instead.

Paella is from here and eaten at lunch. Two in the city, three in El Palmar, which is worth the drive south.
Edited August 2026
05
The whole reason to be in this city between eleven and two on a Saturday. Russafa, the Cabanyal, and one bar in the old town that has not changed since 1917.
Edited August 2026

The sights that survive the crowds, plus the free hill everyone should walk up at seven.

Barceloneta and Poblenou. Lunch, never dinner — a paella at nine at night is a tourist tax.
Edited August 2026

The city took ten years to get good at this and then got very good. Filter, not cortado, at all of these.

Sunday, half twelve, before lunch. Vermut on ice with an olive and a slice of orange — everything else is a variation.
Edited August 2026

El Born to Poble-sec, standing up, in roughly this sequence. Cash for the old ones.

In order. Start high, end in a basement, do not fight it.

Book a week ahead. Two of them have stars and the rest do not need one.

Grey peas, pelmeņi, rye and smoked fish. Half of these are canteens and that is the point.
Edited August 2026

Roasteries, espresso rooms, and the two places I actually get work done.
Edited August 2026

Argued about more than any other food in this city. My order at each, so you can skip the deliberating.

Latvia brews far above its size. Six rooms where that is obvious, starting with the one that started it.

Labietis

August 2026

The brewery that made Latvian craft beer a thing people travel for. Everything is brewed with herbs — juniper, meadowsweet, linden — and the names are all Baltic mythology, so ask them to translate one. The courtyard in July is the best table in Rīga.

Aristīda Briāna iela 9a · in Rīga on Tap

Twenty-eight Latvian beers on tap in a cellar under the old town, and a folk band that starts around ten and gets the room dancing whether it wanted to or not. Touristy on paper, entirely local in practice.

Saving places since 2019 — mostly bars, bookshops, and the walk between them. Notes are honest; the kebab entry is not a joke.
