"Cafetería tranquila al lado de la estación, buena caña Estrella Galicia a 1,50€, varias tapas que cambian (empanada, tortilla, patatas, costilla, pollo...) y trato agradable. Hoy, buen pollo con sus patatas, bastante bueno. Tiene un pequeño comedor con menú del día a 10€. Precios populares de barrio. No será el más elegante, pero merece una visita."

"Cafetería enfrente de la estación de autobuses. Tomé una caña con limón y pusieron un buen pincho. El sitio agradable y como eran las 9.30 de la noche con una temperatura magnífica. Había un cartel con un montón de zumos naturales, no lo probé así que no puedo valorar."

"Tiene una ubicación perfecta, su terraza está en una calle tranquila y no muy transitada. Variedad de tapas muy generosas y caseras. Precio de caña y butano en terraza 3€, y tapa a elegir. El pincho de tortilla es muy generoso y con café te ponen una magdalena grande! Menú de día 10€ y también hay raciones. Camarero muy agradable y servicial. Un diez!!!"

"Nice place with great food, the potatoes were amazing! Its only a minute walk or less from the entrance of the train station with much better food & prices than the station's cafe. I had a quick bite to eat, but theres also menu of the day and reaaaally gorgeous looking pastries, if you've got a bit more time. The owner/staff were very nice, seemed like a nice local pit stop too. If ever around, will be stopping there again! Un sitio muy cerca de estación de tren con comida deliciosa y cafe bueno. Hay opción leche de soja. Dulces parecen que son muy ricos tambien y hay menu del dia con opciones buenos. Personal muy amable. Gracias! :)"
