Stop HERE! Incredibly fresh, all kinds of flavor. Gazpacho soup with watermelon just sings! Fresh ginger lemonade zings and refreshes. Beautiful food, lovingly made. You gotta have it.

If you've stayed nearby and want breakfast or second breakfast 🎉🎉🎉, this is the place! It's just €5 for bacon and eggs or fresh OJ, coffee/tea/hot choccie and fresh pastry or toast. Lovely people working here and a true oasis on the Camino. What a lovely surprise 😊

Stopped today for a break at Marela Cantina. We were craving something fresh after so many days of heavy food and fries, so we got an ensalada de tomate. Lovely fresh tomato slices with blue cheese, greens, and a vinegar dressing. Definitely hit the spot!

Stopped here for lunch. The service was fast and friendly. I had the burrito and seasoned potatoes and it was AMAZING!!! One of the best lunches I have had on the Camino. Worth the stop.

Just as you enter the village is a seemingly new place to eat and get a drink. Quite modern vibe inside with a great fresh menu. Cándelas coffee.

Even in January the bar/restaurant O Mesón is opened and seemingly the only lunch option between Arzúa and O Pedrouzo
