The Pilgrim cafe bar,

Wonderful pastry shop

Made a quick pit stop here during our walk and found the most AMAZING pastry shop a few steps off the trail, near the town hall/water fountain/La Campesina statue. Shop is called Campesina Pasteleria and everything is homemade. Warmly welcomed. Take extra napkins for the massive chocolate croissant!

Could be better

Stayed here with my wife in a double room in September 2021. Good value at €30 but be aware food choice is very limited and of, at best, average quality. There was nowhere else open for food so it was either eat there or go hungry. I would walk a bit further to one of the next villages if l walk this way again.
