A short distance from the main ‘action’ spots but a great little authentic local coffee shop. You should visit!

Cheap and nice traditional food! Thx for the hospitality! Not the most yummie dishes, but if you wanna save some money: this is the spot!

Wir haben viel ausprobiert in SanCris. Hier war es am besten. Sehr lecker, sehr authentisch und noch dazu sehr günstig. Einfach ausprobieren. Sie machen alles ganz frisch, deshalb kann es ein bisschen dauern. Man kann das Essen bestellen und dann ein bisschen spazieren zur Kirche. Eine uneingeschränkte Empfehlung! Guten Appetit ;)
