I'd use it as a bar.

We ate on the terrace which was fine and unaffected by the Spanish hilarity in the bar. Our welcome was warm and throughout our meal we were served with friendliness and smiles. They even helped us along with our fractured Spanish with great patience. The cooking was entirely Spanish and much geared towards tapas which seemed to be all freshly prepared, which cannot be said of many of the establishments in town. We chose one of their chef,s selection menus and had six different tapas, bread/olives/allioli, and a bottle of Rioja for Euro for two. The food was very good and satisfying and we struggled to eat it all. And the complimentary coffee liqueur with cream at the end just put the cap on it. Smashing place you should not miss it.

After brot and olive, we had whitebait and tomatensuppe for beginners, both very nice, followed by el meson’s special burger and tuna salad. not complaining. we found the lady who served us very attentive and friendly. with beer, wein and carajillo the bill came to euro. very reasonable.
