Andorra Going Out

Food and Drink

Cuisine is mainly Catalan, and generally expensive. Quality and prices in restaurants are similar to those in small French and Spanish resort towns.

Things to know:
Alcoholic drinks bought in shops and supermarkets are cheap (Andorra is a duty-free zone), but prices in bars can be high. Bars stay open late.

National specialities:

• Coques (flavoured flat cakes).
• Trinxat (a potato and cabbage dish).
• Truites de carreroles (a type of mushroom omelette).
Local sausages and cheese.
Andorran veal.

Tipping:
Service charges are usually included in the bill. Porters and waiters expect a further 10%.

Nightlife

Andorra’s characteristically safe streets help to create a thriving nightlife. Many bars and hotels provide a variety of evening entertainment. Clubs are open during both summer and winter.

Shopping

There is duty-free shopping for all goods. Petrol, alcohol, cameras and watches can be purchased at low prices. Electrical goods are excellent value.

Shopping hours: Mon-Sat 0930-1330 and 1600-2000, Sun 0930-1330 and 1600-1900. Department stores: Mon-Fri 0930-2000, Sat 0930-2100 and Sun 0930-1900.
