La Cocineta
Calle de San Hipólito

Large portions. Good rabbit and duck main meal. A rare example of really good fried potato--very thin slices. Some will love the pork and bean soup, but it's not for everyone.

La Marmita de Guara
Paseo Pilaseras
974 318 956
Menu of the day €12-€20
Apr-Sept: opens at 9pm
on the hill over the main street; off the beaten path

Popular among local climbing and canyoning guides. Only by reservation if you're not staying at the hostel of the same name, which it shares a site with.

Meson del Vero
Calle Nueva
town's central square

Its popularity seems to be supported only by guidebook recommendations. The service is slow, prices in your bill may differ from menu, and it has poor gaspatxo. Only the Estofado Ternera is really good. The sangria tastes like a cold glintwein.

Peña Amán
C/Arrabal, 22

Mains €5.80-14, soups €3.30-4.50, salads €3.80-6.50; starters €4.80-6.90
town's main square

Probably the best restaurant among those on the main square. Large salads. Recommended dishes: gazpatxo; rivuelto local variety of scrambled eggs with garlic and prawns; veal steaks, both with Roquefort and a-la Pireneas. The red pepper in the dishes is typically pickled, not a fresh vegetable.

Narbona
Menu del dia: €18 for two meals and desert; €15 for a more limited choice of dishes

The stewed lamb is good, while the fried variety is not. The paella a-la Navarra is quite large, but bad seafood makes it a dish to avoid.

Casa Gervasio
menu del dia €25 / 30, VAT included
Restaurant serves only lunch, 1:30-4pm; bar-only the rest of the time

Most tables are on a small-and-cozy square in the depths of the old town, a dozen meters away from the restaurant's entrance.

Stewed rabbit, partridge, and veal dishes are the best bet in most local restaurants.

grocery shops
Alimentacion y Capnoceria
look for Tabacos sign

The food shop appears to be oriented towards locals, but the locals consider it extremely expensive and tourist-oriented. They head to Barbastro to buy food.
