Bar Pilar Valencia
Valencia, Spain
The read// why locals go
Bar Pilar is a small counter bar in Valencia's Barrio del Carmen, where the tapas are Valencian and the bill stays modest. The Barrio del Carmen is the city's oldest quarter, a knot of narrow streets inside the line of the vanished walls, and bars like this one are what hold its evenings together. The format is the traditional Valencian one: you eat at the counter, standing or perched, ordering in rounds rather than courses, with something cold alongside. Around €12 covers it. No reinvention and no concept — a working neighbourhood bar that the neighbourhood still uses.
