Sitio increíble para pegarte un buen desayuno! Tienen una gran variedad de tostadas muy elaboradas, al igual que de dulces. Con el cafe te ponen unas tostadas de cortesía, un detalle por su parte. El precio es elevado si pides fuera de lo ‘normal’.

El café estaba muy bueno, y el zumo natural. Probamos también el croissant y las tostadas con huevo, tomate y aguacate, de vicio! Es una pena que solo tenían la mitad de la carta porque estaban en fiestas.

We go to Cambados every year and have cafe con leche everyday at this wonderful shoppe. I also love all their pastries. But most especially the pan con tomato!
