"Very cheap and nice place. Beer for 2€ and tapas for 1€. Everything fresh."

"Supongo que todo depende del personal de turno. Hoy, 10 de Abril de 2023 a las 15:00 nos ha atendido un chico de unos 45/50 años encantador, que se ha desvivido por complacernos. La barra estaba llena, el chico no paraba y cuando ya había atendido a todos se ha puesto a limpiar el mostrador. Muy trabajador el hombre. El café estaba bien, y 8,25€ por 4 cafés (2 Capuccinos, 1 con leche y 1 americano), me parece adecuado, ni caro ni barato."

"El cafè amb llet boníssim, de veritat. El servei podria ser una mica més dinàmic. Els preus efectivament són cars, és la única opció si estàs en trànsit, no pots sortir."

"Overzichtelijk en schoon station voor toeristen is het handig om een 10 ritten kaart voor bus&metro te kopen zodat je met vrienden of familie een stuk goedkoper uit bent.Vraag er naar bij de servicemedewerkers bij het verkoop apparaat."

"Hay muchas malas reseñas y no entiendo porqué. El trato más que excelente. La señora Anna Clemente es muy amable y cercana. Me he sentido como en casa. Teneis que probar el bocadillo de jamón ibérico el cual es buenísimo y te pueden poner aceite, tomate o calentartelo si lo necesitas. Tiene una buena variedad de productos, veganos, patatas de bolsa o incluso te pueden hacer frankfurts. Se lleva cinco estrellas sin ninguna duda."
