05/12/2025: Fine chocolates, marron glacés... Quality at a quality price.

03/12/2025: Less than an hour before closing time, and with the place almost full, they found us a table and provided excellent service. They understand Basque and Spanish without any problem. We ordered the house special hot chocolate, which they prepare with a foam that must be a bit of whipped cream. They serve a small pitcher of extra hot chocolate to fill the cups, a small bowl of whipped cream, and a pitcher and glasses of water. Fantastic! But the best part was the flavor—not overly sweet, with that bitterness of pure cocoa. I really enjoyed it, and it didn't feel heavy like some other hot chocolates I usually have. A great choice! We also had Basque cake and some very good croissants. The place is iconic, not very big, but special. Good value for money ✔️ It's also a shop and sells a variety of the world's best cocoa beans in bars and by weight.
