Although a language barrier, on our first visit we managed, using both U.K. and Spanish menus, to order and get more or less what we wanted (I was not able to find, on the English menu, the pizza with anchovy and olives that I was convinced Iâd translated on the Spanish menu, so ordered something else). Our waiter spoke enough English and with my very limited Spanish, we managed. However, on our second visit, about a week later, we were served by someone who honestly didnât even seem to understand their Spanish menu, let alone the UK one, even though they were laid out in identical manner. So we ordered the mixed salad to share as a starter followed by a pizza, an entrecôte with pepper and an escalope Milanese. Confusion over the bottle of water we ordered, everywhere else has understood my âAgua con gasâ but no, it took several minutes to eventually get a large bottle of water WITHOUT gas (con gas only came in small bottles). A further wait then two pizzas arrived, one was the one we had ordered and the other was a Naplalese one, which the waiter had decided we wanted instead of the escalope. This turned out to be the anchovy pizza I had wanted the week before! Then the mixed salad arrived, I unsuccessfully tried to explain we had wanted that as a shared starter, so gave up, but it looked as though the salad was being served instead of the steak, I realised that no one had asked how the steak should be cooked so thought they hadnât got that right either. Eventually though, the steak arrived. A large one but far too over cooked for me, so I swapped and had the anchovy pizza and my husband ate the steak, which he said was tasty but medium to well done (we would have ordered it rare, had we been asked). Now, I know we had a language issue but the waiter was seen to ask the other waiter, who had served us the week before, for some help but was just sent away. I also asked for a Spanish menu so I could show what we wanted on that but although he fetched one, he looked at it himself and put it on another table. Very frustrating and I was left feeling they just couldnât care less. Even when asking for the bill, in Spanish, the waiter nodded then we were ignored and had to ask again 10 mins later as he stood by the kitchen, not even appearing to remember we had asked for it. So, food was good but not what we had ordered, we felt the staff couldnât be bothered to try to serve us, not even checking how we liked the steak... pity we went back because it might have got one more point based on our first visit only.

The pizza here was pretty good - nice and thin, and some interesting choices.Shame service as so surly and grumpy as reported in other reviews.Funny though, we asked from some black pepper and the waitress returned with one tiny packet with about 5 grains of pepper in it. When we asked for more, she brought one more tiny packet.So good pizza but waitress definitely did not want to be there.

Traditional bakery right in front of the Cistercian Abbey with lots of kinds of bread to choose from. I was delighted to feel the smell of freshly baked bread in real ovens. Don't miss it if you're looking for something to remind you of the old times!
