Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really excellent local place. Great coffee, fresh tortilla, ready made sandwiches. Incredibly fast service. If you want to see a local place in full swing go around 10 am. Loved it.

😁 This is where the two local police officers eat their breakfast at 07 a.m. in the morning! The place is fantastic, with great atmosphere. Small and friendly. Food prepared in advance, mainly sandwich and some tapas. Fresh orange juice also!

I stayed at a hotel near the bus terminal. On Sunday morning I had difficulties finding a coffee shop I could have breakfast near my hotel. I could find this cafeteria through TripAdvisor website. I was satisfied with the omelette.

This pub or cafeteria has very nice atmosphere and it represent a typical Basque place. Very simple pintxos for approx 1 EUR and beer for small price. The waiters were very nice and and had patience with my bad Spanish language.

Sat outside with locals seafood rice and tomato onion and tuna salad for starters then sea bass and pork for main plus...chips plus dessert or coffee What’s not to like ? plus smiley service 😀More

We were also staying in the NH hotel just around the corner and 4 of us had breakfast here, for less than 1 person at the hotel. The mushroom and potatoes tortilla was really good and my step father commented that he thought the coffee...was the best he had had in the Basque Country. Not the biggest selection, but plenty to give a good start to the day.More

This is a great place for a quick, cheap, delicious breakfast. Their tortilla is outstanding. I would eat it every day, if I could. They usually have a couple different kinds - plain, with jamon, and sometimes one with vegetables (peppers). They are all great!

Go and try a tortilla. Even better: Ask for a "sandwich with tortilla and Jamon". All the restaurant is organized and clean.

I was just lucky because this place was close to my hotel, in a not-so-interesting area of the town. Crowded, small, noisy...it was the real deal. I had possibly the best tortilla I tasted in my entire life. And I ate hundreds of them. If...you want to reach the heaven you can try the tortilla with Bonito fish. Wow!More
