Welcoming staff, wonderful Menu del Dia, good wine. Very attentive and accomodating service. A big recommend as we are tricky, no garlic-no meat. Fabulous parrillada de pescado. A very nice experience. We will go again. Thank you J&V

Ducked out of a shower & had a drink here. A warm atmosphere created by friendly staff in a central location.

Very average bar in a nice plaza. Staff were generally cold and uninterested. Quite slow service but we were in Spain so I accept this to a point. My food was forgettable - my fried prawns were tainted by the burnt garlic. My wife's fried eggs, ham and chips were okay. White wine was quite pleasant. When paying the waitress selected 'pounds' even though I repeatedly stated 'Euros'! We left a tip but for the life of me I don't know why?

We arrived in Santander late, no shops open, dying of thirst, nothing in our apartment. Then we happened upon the kindest owner who provided us with his beer in a glass and water and trusted us to return same next day. So next day we had a delightful lunch there. We sat in the cool square under the portico where we were swiftly served with a fixed and delicious lunch. 3 courses, wine €15 each. What a great welcome to this fabulous city. The staff were great, swift and attentive. With a kind man managing them they must like working there. Don’t hesitate to try. Thank you boss
