"¡RIQUISÍSIMOS aperitivos con cada consumición! Además de raciones caseras muy generosas ¿Qué más se puede pedir? El ambiente también es fantástico y los camareros lo son aún más. Además está situado al lado de un parque, donde pueden jugar tranquilamente los más peques sin peligro alguno. ¡Es GENIAL! ¡ENHORABUENA chicos!"

"He venido a tomar unas cervezas con mi mujer y unos amigos. La terraza está muy bien situada al lado de unos jardines. El camarero Ismael nos brindo una atención excelente, nos sirvió cerveza muy fría y tinto de verano de calidad. Al ver qué salían buenos platos de la cocina nos animamos a pedir una ración de patatas bravas y otra de ali oli, todo estaba buenísimo y hecho al momento. Muchas gracias volveré siempre que pueda y lo recomendaré."

"Es la mejor terraza del barrio de La Poveda para tomar algo. Pero han bajado un poco el nivel de un tiempo a esta parte. Los pinchos eran bastante mejores. Ahora ponen más patatas fritas y aceitunas de tapa. Y el mejor camarero sólo está Domingos."

"En el corazón del barrio, se encuentra una joya de local, una cafetería que redefine la excelencia. Atmósfera cálida y acogedora, compromiso del personal siempre sonriente y amable. Cada taza de café es una obra maestra, la comida exquisita, sus hamburguesas y sus bocatas increíbles, y todo esto combinado con precios bajos, es más que recomendable. En resumen, esta cafetería no es solo un establecimiento, es un tesoro del barrio."
