Bar Jacobeo open on Sunday for lunch

On a Sunday, food is a 200m walk (off the camino) turn left up the top of town. We had 2 hsmburguesas, which were very hearty with bacon, cheese and an egg as well as a fresh orange juice and a coffee for a total of 23Eu.
Just what we needed in the middle of the day for a hearty lunch. They also have the usual tortilla and papas bravis, which seemed popular with the locals, who were all lovely to us (unlike other comments on here).

Good host

You should stay here , the dinner is good, and the host very friendly.

Albergue virgen de Guadalupe

In this ugly little town there is an excellent Albergue: Albergue virgen de Guadalupe. €15. Facilities are new and clean. Owner is very helpful. The rooms have only two bunkbeds each, single level. We were there on July 3, 2024. This must have been a little late in the season because he was no longer serving meals. This is a shame because the only restaurant is Bar Jacoby and it’s not very pleasant. Although the food at the restaurant was quite good, the service and atmosphere are rather poor: either loud rock music inside or cigarette smoke outside.

Rip-off bar - keep walking if you can.

I stayed at Hotel Guadeloupe on June 6th which was rustic, but fine, but I chose it for the pilgrim meal reviews. However there were only 2 of us there that night so the owner decided not to cook.
The bar was only open between 7:00pm and 9:00om, the bar tender had only just woken up (still had creases on her face from the pillow) the place was a mess, dirty dishes everywhere, bread on the floor, but with no other choice I was starving, it had been a very long, it day .
€20 for 1 small beer, a tuna salad (no tomato as they didn't have any) and some soggy fries!
Worst meal on the Camino Frances to far. Had Inot already reached my pain threshold for the day, I would have kept on walking.

Golf club restaurant unfriendly

Very unfriendly person at the counter. Uncomfortable. Sandwich was not good . Recommend passing this place by.

First unwelcoming place

Needed water so walked up the hill to Bar Jacob. Surly service, strange locals. Felt like I was in a Stephen King village. Had to buy a glass of water at the bar to pour into my bottles. Locals close to hostile.

Very weird vibe, then you learn what happened

You see a golf course. Then all these empty apartment buildings. I was waiting for zombies. It seriously felt like a horror flick. Just keep walking and get to the old village with bar and albergues. Bar was friendly and good. Albergue Victoria was nice and clean. Definitely oddest stop on trail. ( history.. they built golf course.. then all the apartments thinking people would come. They didn’t. )

Tiny town

Seems decent enough. The hospitalero at Albergue Victoria seems friendly/kind.

Fyi: as of June 14 the google maps location for Albergue Victoria is incorrect. This app has the correct address.

Lost potential

This is the first town where I was greeted with extreme unfriendliness.
Couldn’t find a place to stay even though I’d made a reservation.
I finally found an apartment for 128 Euro (could sleep 2, very mediocre with no WiFi)
Do NOT plan on staying in this town.

Casa Rural Victoria

Very nice albergue; reasonably priced. If you are doing the between stops, look into it. Lovely place.

Bar Jacabeo - worth the detour

Great selection of food and drink here - I did a breakfast stop and was pleasantly surprised. 4 min detour off the Camino.

Bar Jacobeo

Located right next to Casa Victoria, so a little ways off the Camino. Enjoyed breakfast there on my way from Azofra, friendly señora served me a lovely coffee and tortilla. Note that this bar is closed on Wednesdays!

Comfortable private room: Very clean

Lovely private room: very clean. Old fashioned (in a good way) double room with a very clean shared bathroom . Laundry is available for 6 Euros, complete. Looking forward to good sleep.

You can get a drink or snack at the golf club without leaving the Camino.

Lovely home with private baths in the rooms. Sweet terrace available to guests. Very accommodating personnel. We had dinner and breakfast at the Albergue. The food and service was delightful. Highly recommend Casa Victoria.

Great roast chicken. Highly recommend stopping for lunch.

The bar served us half a

The bar served us half a small fried chicken that was cooked perfect. You had a choice of fries or salad. The meal was 9 euros and it’s been one of the best I’ve had since starting the Camino in St. Jean. Both the salad and the fries were superior to most America restaurants. I highly recommend this place for the
