The waitress who served me the coffee was not friendly but she was very efficient which was impressive. There was another waitress cleaning the tables who was very nice. It was a fine place to wait for the bus and take a break. The outdoor seating was nice

Appears popular with locals. Limited veggie options for our daughter. Very long wait for everything basic, underwhelming fare. The lasagne sent back to be heated up as tepid on serving. But if you want a filling menu inc bread drinks for only 11€ ain’t too fussed about fine cuisine this would do as portions were generous.

The menu del dia is very good value and the portions are large, but the food quality is only so-so. The battered food we ordered was quite greasy, and the salmon was very overcooked. Service outside was a little slow: we ordered chicken as one of our main courses (from the menu del dia) and quite a while after we'd had our starters the waiter came back to say the chicken had run out. Overall it's fine for lunch but don't expect haute cuisine.
