Furelos has a Roman bridge, a church, and a bar — a satisfying combination. The bridge is small but genuinely ancient, its stones worn smooth by two millennia of traffic. The bar serves excellent tortillas.
The Iglesia de San Juan has an unusual crucifix depicting Jesus with one arm reaching upward rather than stretched to the side — a rare variation worth seeing.
The village and its pilgrim hospice were owned by the Hospitallers of San Juan in the 12th century. The bridge is Roman in origin, rebuilt in the medieval period.

The paellas look amazing. I had a salad that was light and fresh. They accept credit cards

They provide table service. Very friendly staff and good food. A lovely spot with a nice terrace and a small garden.

I took a 6€ spaghetti bolognese portion at the bar just before the bridge. The portion size was very generous.

My mother and I enjoyed a nice lunch here. They made a vegetarian lentil soup that she loved. I had chicken breasts with salad and patatas fritas - was very tasty. Very nice couple runs the place. They accept credit cards.

The guy at the bar said it’s been closed two years.

Well, we counted on this suggested bar to do a lunch pause. Even if the siesta was finished at 4:30 p.m., it was closed, no known opening hours. Pass.
