Los camareros son super agradables y sobretodo Maxi es encantador. Las raciones son generosas para el precio que tienen. La napolitanas de chocolate y las croquetas están exquisitas. En resumen, recomiendo muchísimo este bar.

Buen servicio y superando las expectativas. Comida casera, con menú diario a un precio muy competente. Entramos por casualidad para desayunar, ya que estábamos esperando para hacer un examen, y volvimos al sitio a comer de nuevo. Muy contentos con la comida y el servicio. Repetiremos!!

Cafetería muy tradicional con buen servicio ahora lo lleva el hijo pero las tapas se mantienen en la cocina también. Un gran acierto si estás por la flota
