Great food at very reasonable prices. Lovely outdoor cafe protected from the wind today with roll-up plastic shades. We enjoyed terrific grilled chicken with chips and salad, wine and beer.
Lovely local pub on the market square of Almadena. We all 4 chose the (recommended) Bifana. 4 generous slices of marinated cooked pork on a roll. The pork was beautifully cooked and juicy. Other tables were enjoying grilled chicken accompanied with a pint. Will go back to this place.
Good food at a reasonable price in this village cafe. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast pastry or toastie almost daily as well as a few light lunches over a three week period. They serve bottled beers and draught Super Bock, carafes of wine and really good coffees. What let's it down are the miserable faces of the family that own and work here, despite being regular customers for three weeks I didn't see them smile at customers at all.....and the outside tables desperately need a good clean.
Tell us what you ordered and what it cost. Two or three sentences about one dish is more useful to the next person than a star rating.
Nearest first, then across the Rio Grande Valley.
