"El mejor sitio para desayunar en el puerto. Además a mis los churros se me suelen repetir, pero estos al ser finitos nada de nada, y la ración abundante. Las tostadas la medida que dios manda y un precio màs que competitivo, mi mujer y yo estuvimos de trabajo y fuimos dos mañanas y el desayuno para 2 , 6€ y eran tostadas y churros de calidad. El lugar obviamente tiene una cola que da la vuelta, pero no hay que esperar mucho, hay al menos 5 camareros encantadores que dan un servicio dinámico y se espera poco a ser atendidos. Una grata sorpresa."
