"Buen sitio, tranquilo pero animado. Gran variedad de tapas, buena caña y buen servicio. Cerveza Amstel a 2,50€. Buena tapa de morcilla. Personal agradable y con terraza trasera."

"Buen sitio para ir de tapas o comer de raciones/bocadillos/hamburguesas. La experiencia cambia bastante según el día y según quien te atienda. A veces tienes que repetir lo que quieres y tardan 10-15 minutos en traerlo si estás en terraza, sobre todo en la de atrás o acabas antes yendo tú mismo a pedir. Lo mismo se aplica para que te limpien la mesa, según quie te atienda. Los precios son ajustados, buena variedad de vinos y vermuts, las raciones son generosas y está todo bastante bueno y en cuanto a las tapas sin duda la morcilla es de las mejores de León. Otras, no son nada recomendables, como la ensaladilla."
