Very good everyday cheap Basque food. The waiters are fast and very friendly. It remains open all day long and does typical "bocata" sandwiches to take away.

A friend and I are staying in San Sebastián for 2 weeks as part of a larger Europe trip, and this cafe has become our go-to breakfast spot near our room. It’s open all day, it has great prices, the omelette esque menu item is only 2 euro and is quite well portioned, and the gentlemen behind the counter, Juso always greets us with a smile and is able to talk in English when my limited Spanish falls short. Definitely check this place out if you’re looking for a good meal.
