Trato inmejorable. Cuando llegué, no había sitio fuera para poder desayunar con el perro y se preocuparon en avisar a los comensales para que, cuando se fueran, nos avisarán. El café es de categoría y las tostadas más.

I think the only place in Barbate where you can drink decent coffee. They do espresso and it’s really espresso. They do caffe macchiato and it’s really macchiato. So if you’re tired of shitty Spanish coffee - go there and enjoy. Breakfast is also great - for 2 tostada con tomate, ham, cheese … we paid 2€ per head. Really great place

El mejor café que me tomo en mucho tiempo y pan muy bueno. El único pero negativo fue la mantequilla, fría, casi congelada, imposible de untar
