Silleda is the commercial center of the Deza region and the largest town you'll pass through between Ourense and Santiago. It has all services: grocery stores, pharmacy, banks, bars, and restaurants. It's a working market town rather than a tourist destination, but that's precisely its value to pilgrims -- you can get things done here.
The Feira Internacional de Galicia, Spain's largest agricultural exhibition center, is based in Silleda. The weekly market and the various fairs throughout the year give the town a commercial energy that the smaller hamlets lack.
A recommended stop is Bar Gerardo, just before entering town. On the main street, Bar Toxa occasionally sets up a pulpo boiler outside the front door and offers pulpo with Ribeira Sacra wine -- when you see the setup, don't walk past.
One word of caution: the pharmacy here has a reputation for marking up prices for foreign pilgrims. Shop accordingly.
Silleda hosts the Semana Verde de Galicia in June, an international agriculture, livestock, forestry, and food fair. Various other trade fairs take place throughout the year at the Feira Internacional de Galicia exhibition grounds. The weekly market is also worth a browse if your timing is right.
The last 40km to Santiago is through pleasant Galician farmland. It is close enough now that the proximity to the roads and major highway interchanges means lots of crossings. The way from here is well marked and easy to follow.

This is a lovely hotel just off the Camino about 4km past Silleda. A nice treat along the way. The restaurant is top notch and they have a swimming pool and beautiful grounds. Highly recommended.
