Came back to Haro after 7 years. Loved it the first time around, but didn't have much time to fully enjoy it. This time we stayed 4 nights in town. And it is still a fantastic little town. The Historic Center is where all the action is in the evenings, and it really gets packed on weekends. Besides the main square "Plaza De La Paz", the two small lanes "Calle Santo Tomás" and "Calle San Martín" are the places where you will find countless bars and restaurants. Also on the square "Plaza San Martin", which connects these two streets. For good Tapas head to "Los Canos" or "El Remolino". For Tapas with a twist, then you really need to check out the amazing "Beethoven I", amazing and innovative Tapas creations. We always enjoyed some bar-hopping here. Ending the night in one of the bars around Plaza De La Paz...many open late. The "Suizo" served huge drinks for small prices. Besides the food and drinks, it's the untouched old buildings in this part of town which makes it looks like you time-travelled back a few hundred years. And even though a major tourist attraction in the Rioja region, it is surprising how little international visitors you see in the evenings. It's mostly locals and spanish tourists. And that's great. In case you can't find a seat in one of the bars, do as locals do and just grab your Tapas and wine and sit on some bench, stone wall or stroll around the Plaza. Nice to know that many restaurants and bars allow dogs inside. Just ask. Haro is a wonderful town, a great base to explore the wine country. We will definitely be back. But we won't wait 7 years again. read more
