This is a tabern and hostel located in Caín de Valdeón town (León, Spain), next to the river Cares, famous for its renowned hiking route through the heart of the Picos de Europa limestone formation, that connects León to Asturias and vice versa.
It's the perfect place to eat before or after the hiking route, with good local products, well prepared and not expensive.
In addition, the service is very attentive, the owner is very nice (you'll enjoy chatting with him) and the views from his terrace are good.
Close to the restaurant terrace.
They currently have a ⭐4.5 rating on Google Maps and my personal rating was ⭐5.
