Tapa's bar, fair price to quality ratio. As usual in Santiago free tapas with drinks. The service a bit impersonal. I Will come back.
My son and I were in Santiago on a Sunday. Most places were closed, but this gem of delicious food was open in Plaza de Cervantes (Next to the Church of San Bieito do Campo . I had the mussels with red pimentos and sautéed onions in a delicious vinagrette with authentic olive oil (of course, in Spain! . My son had a grilled chicken with French fries. Simple, stable food, but made with love and the right seasoning. The seating was in the plaza. Normally, the seating is inside, but on weekends there is no traffic in the plaza and they put umbrella tables and chairs. The place was quite busy and the wait a little long, but well worth it.
This was more a Tapa's Bar and a place for late at night than a place for coffee but it had atmospehere and the coffee and the cake (Churros and Almons cake) were very good for a modest charge. Well worth considering for a later time of day.
Below average food. The place is probably good for a drink and chat but for definitely not for eating.
Upon arriving, we asked for a menu and the waitress let out an irritated “ha” before going to retrieve some menus inside. We were then brought our coffees and given the bill before the rest of our food arrived, which was a first during the year I’ve been in Spain. During our breakfast a flock of about 10 pigeons descended on the table next to us, causing a spectacle for passersby, but the waitress didn’t seem to be too concerned and several minutes went by before she shoo’d them away. Overall, the food was good (sardine salad and toast with salmon and cheese), but the rude service was disappointing.
