El Eshavira
Just off Calle Azacayas, duck down the spooky alley, battle with the hefty door and adopt the granadino penchant for dark, smoky haunts that ooze cool jazz and sultry flamenco. Top local performers come to bash the guitar strings or floor boards in this boho hangout in the Albayzín.

El Rincón de Michael Landon
In the midst of Granada's student life, this funny bar is dedicated to retro kitsch and the bizarrely cult star of The Little House on the Prairie. The hip bunch that hangs out here comes for the simple tapas (with names such as JR - Jamón & Roquefort), beer, and music blasting from the small stereo.
-
El Rincón de San Pedro
Turquoise walls and slate tiles give this hip bar a cooling feel to complement the sound of the Río Darro trickling past. Gaze out of the back doors onto the greenery at the base of the Alhambra as you sip a refreshing gin and tonic.

For a decent Saturday-night flamenco show head to El Upsetter, which doubles as a dreadlock-swinging reggae bar for the rest of the week. A good place to miss the tourists.
