I would've given them a 5 star if this place were not always operating over their capacity and it can get a bit stressful to pass an order, or sit at the counter (especially as a foreigner). Taste and ambient-wise, this is a great place.

I stopped into this small but bright pastry, cake, and ice cream shop on a night stroll through the…read morePlaza Major. They are located on the east side of the plaza, more north than south. There were so many goodies to choose from, I wasn't sure what to try. I settled on a small scoop of Pantera Rosa ice cream and 3 small pastries called mantecados. After taking a bite of a mantecado, I realized that I know this cookie well. It's basically the same as a Filipino polveron. Confitería Santa Lucía's mantecados are crumbly, sweet, and topped with a fine glaze of sugar. Every day in Spain has been an interesting history lesson in the origin of the familiar foodstuffs of my childhood. There was only one person working and the people in front of me were ordering lots of pastries for a party, so it was a bit of a wait. The counter person was a bit gruff. And the ice cream was nothing to write home about. Thus the 4-star review. But would I come back here to try their other delicious desserts? Absolutamente.

I've gone to both locations of Santa Lucía and the products are the exact same. A great variety and…read moregood location in Plaza Mayor. Not the best I've ever eaten- I found my items a bit too sweet- but still delicious! But for €1.75 for a croissant, the prices are entirely reasonable.

It gets busy around 10:30 when the whole working works stops to tomar algo. The churros are great, but my favorite here is a breakfast of tosta con jamón and a café con leche. 4 euros for a huge slice of bread that is smeared in tomato covered in jamón. It's a great way to start your Salamanca day! PS On a side touristic note, if you can go to the iglesia redonda right next door, please do. 11th century church. It's not open much, but it's a tiny treasure and feels so unique after seeing so much big grandeur.
