Hemos parado a desayunar. Por un lado, uno café con tortilla de jamón y queso, otro café con leche y un sobado (macho) y el tercero café con leche y tostada con tomate. El pan de la tostada estaba increíble, muy rico. El tomate es enlatada, para tal tostada le pedí uno más que me dio sin problema. El camarero fue muy agradable. Tienen terraza con vistas a los picos.

We were 4 English men on a motorcycling holiday, staying in Potes. This bar became our regular place to enjoy a few cold beers. A really nice sunny terrace, the owner could not have been more attentive, he never bothered us but he was always there exactly when we needed more drinks. Each round was accompanied by bowls of nuts and olives. Thanks it's one of our great holiday memories

Un lugar en el que tienen las salsas encima de la barra para que puedas servirte por tu cuenta en cualquier momento es un bar al que merece la pena volver. (No hay nada mejor que desayunar un buen pintxo de tortilla. Y los de aquí son muy buenos.)

Best coffee in Potes. We had a very brief stop to have coffee. It was the best cafe con leche. The waiter behind the bar was very nice. We thought the outdoor seating was amazing, and we said to ourselves that we will come back for proper diner or lunch.
