Food Scene

The owners are a couple and their son. They are extremely friendly, easy going and the wife bakes and cooks delicious food. Even if it's not on the menu, if you order paella ahead of time, she will make it. The paella is exceptional!!! The bar is located in an old medieval building. You can enjoy the beautiful arches and the warm stove on cold, rainy days. This is a pleasant café where you can have lunch with your family, have a nice chat with friends and locals in the afternoon and have some delicious tapas and good wine in the evening.

This is a popular place for the locals. We often come here around noon for a lunch menu. It is a little bit more upscale and refined yet at the same price as other fondas nearby! We often come here to have a lunch menu. But don't come too late or call to make a reservation, or you won't find tables left!

This fonda has very friendly staff! The food is good and homemade and the price is also like the other fondas in town. What makes this fonda special is the beautiful building: this used to be a parador and also a fonda in the 14th century! During summer, you can sit outside at the Plaza España for dinner or tapas until late, and meanwhile enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Medieval town square.

This restaurant has a modern scenery and is a little more upscale than your regular Spanish restaurants or fondas. The prices in the evening are a bit higher, but reasonable considering the quality of the food. The cook is a nice lady that has won several awards locally. Even though this is a bit more upscale, never the less, you will find that the lunch menu is priced the same as the other restaurants in town. If you want to eat here, you should probably make reservations ahead of time!
