Segovia for foodies

Best restaurants

Segovia eats like a city that has decided what it is and stopped arguing. The dominant grammar is Castilian roast (cochinillo and cordero pulled from wood ovens) and it shapes everything from the white-tablecloth dining rooms around the Acueducto to the mesones along Avenida de la Constitución and the country asadores out past Revenga. The list below runs from the cochinillo institutions tourists come specifically to eat, through regional kitchens that quietly do the same job for half the price, to a handful of places that exist precisely because not every dinner in Segovia needs to be a roast: a burger room, a pizzeria, a late-night Spanish bar where the kitchen runs until the small hours. Twelve restaurants, ranked, every one anchored to an OpenStreetMap node so the address survives contact with a phone map. Read it as a week's worth of dinners, not a single greatest-hits night out: Segovia rewards eating slowly through it.
