La Frontera

Granada


Some of Granada's best 'fast good' treats are served in this grungy courtyard, surrounded by posters of Nirvana and The Police and to a Guns N' Roses and Queen soundtrack. We particularly like the Heavy Metal Burger and the Pig Metal Sandwich, though there are veggie quesadillas and burritos for non-carnivorous customers.
