Just down the hill from the bar is a fantastic coffee shop called "the essential coffee home". Perfect in every way. Do not miss! And no waiting even at 8:15 because so many stopped up the hill. A perfect distance to walk from Palas and enjoy an American style apple pie, coffee, or other homemade baked goods!!!

We are here at 8:30 and others were here before us, the owner was very gracious and they offer a nice breakfast menu including yogurt with fruit or honey - not a little container but nice yogurt!

They are open early too. Nicer than the breakfast we had in town before leaving.

There is a pension called La Pallota de San Cristóbal, which is owned by Mario and Belen a very nice and hospitable couple. They have a bar and restaurant. Me and another pilgrim stayed there in a three bedroom with a nice shower for 70€ and that included breakfast.
