Las tapas de este bar son tapas de comida elaborada y casera. Nada de tapas precocinadas, aquí son sabores auténticos. Cada vez que me como las migas me transporto a las de mi abuela. Comida de calidad, trato excelente y el mejor servicio ! Probad las costillas, se te cae la baba

Bar típico de Linares con sus ricas tapas a muy buen precio. Abierto desde las 5 de la mañana por lo que puedes desayunar muy temprano. Me encanta el café y las tostadas de chapata que ponen.
