One of the best places in town for "Orxata" a tradiitonal drink made from tiger nuts, refreshing and sweet. Massive queues in summer on a sunny day, people travel from a distance to have a drink here.

A new place opened by the same people who also run Mosquito (Chinese Dumplings and other "tapas") and Grasshopper (very good Ramen) and a number of other bars/restaurants in the centre of town. This one here is close to the apartment and has a selection of Asian favourites from their other restaurants. All of their places have onething in common. Good quality Asian food coupled with excellent artisanal beers on tap.

Best place for brunch in the neighbourhood. Often full as it is only a small place but you can call and book ahead. They have excellent pan cakes, poached eggs and other warm breakfast options, coupled with some of the best coffee in the neighbourhood.

Secret Spot par excellence. This opened in 1944 and looks like time has stood still since then. There is no sign at the door and the opening times are weird, seeing as their specialty is "Esmorzar a Forquilla" or "Fork breakfast", meaning tapas and fried sea food served early with beer and wine, which most people would associate more with lunch or dinner. They also invented the "bomba" or potato bomb, a sort of croquette on steroids. Come early for breakfast and you will sit with the locals, if you are late then it will be more touristy.
