Frommer's Review
This extremely authentic old cafe and restaurant bar, another of the bares y cafés notables protected by law, is the kind of place where you'd expect your grandfather to have eaten when he was a teenager. Young and old alike come to this bar, which is a very local spot, with people catching soccer games on television or quietly chatting away as they order beer, small snacks, and sandwiches. The TV seems to be the only modern thing in here. Music plays from a wooden table-top radio that must be from the 1950s, and two wooden refrigerators dating from who knows when are still in use for storing food. The old couple that owns the place, José Moreira and Manuela Lopéz, obviously subscribe to the view that if it ain't broke, there's no reason for a new one.
