Sidreria recommendation in San Sebastian area?
 
We wil be visiting San Sebastian in June and would like to visit a traditional sidreria for lunch or dinner.

Should we visit one in the Astigarraga area (about 15 minutes east of SS)? There are 15 sidrerias listed in this area.

Can anyone recommend a good one? One with good cider, good food and a nice ambiance. Also, my husband doesn't eat meat, only fish. Will he have a problem ordering? I noticed most of the set menus have a meat course (usually for 2 or more people to share).

Thanks!

Yikes, give me a couple of days to find my notes from our 2008 visit there. The emphasis was on the mutiple choices oc cider and the hunk of mear they give you.

June is off the official sidrería season (mid January through April), although most places keep open year around. A traditional meal includes tortilla de bacalao, bacalao frito and a huge T-bone steak, but the menus are wider off season.

Astigarraga is especially known for its great sidrerías.

Thanks! It sounds like there are a lot of great sidrerias in Astigarraga - so I guess we really can't go wrong in picking one.
