This was my favorite bakery in Old Town Valencia. The pastries were tender and delicious. Staff…read morewere great sharing their favorites. The coffee and orange juice topped it off. Like many other places the orange juice is squeezed right there by a contraption that I wish I could have at home. The bakery is very small and has a neighborhood vibe which is why I liked it. And the coffee was great too.

Everything looked great and the pastries tasted even better than we could have imagined.read more

A local friend said they had the best pistachio gelato in Valencia so we had to go check it out…read more There is another shop around the corner that's famous for crazy flavors, but if traditonal flavors is what you're after, then keep walking. It's a tiny shop right next to the church in the center of the square. There was a little bit of a line but it moved quickly. We both got two flavors with pistachio being one and we both loved it. I had chocolate with mine and my friends was a fruit flavor that I don't recall the name of. We sat outside on a stone wall and people watched while enjoying the beautiful afternoon in Valencia before heading back to our airbnb.

The ladies working the counter were super patient, kind, and helpful. I had a cone of pistachio and some type of orange flavored gelato. Apparently the two flavors had won awards and I honestly see why. Great gelato!

It was hot sunny afternoon on a Monday in Valencia, the arid temperature had left my wife and I…read morelonging to walk to a nice cafe that would provide shade and respite from the beating sun. As we traversed through the narrow streets and cobbled pavement we passed by a most curious looking shop with all kinds of sweet and savory pastries inside. Immediately catching my eye, I urged my wife to enter the store and treat ourselves to a luxury that we do not commonly enjoy in the states: Cheesecake. After our initial visit in Barcelona, we were slightly disheartened by the cheesecake which we ate there, so at first there was a certain hesitancy with buying this cake. Then, however, we watched as the lady cut a pristine piece and wrapped it in this beautiful outerwear; we knew at that moment we were in for a treat. A treat, it was. From the moment we took our first bite our senses were overwhelmed by the deliciousness of this cake. I myself do not often eat cake, as I commonly find it bland and without too much flavor. This cake was the essence of perfection. A harder outside tunneling towards a creamier inside, with the top lightly toasted. Not a crumb was left after we were done. These people are geniuses.

My wife and I walked in and ordered an Empanada. As the bag was passed to me I began to fill with…read morethe excitement of a child Christmas morning. Could this be? The bag was warm to the touch. Did I finally find a place in Spain that makes empanadas fresh on site! While being warm is a nice touch many if not every place I have visited has offered to warm up my savory pastry. Unfortunately this is most often in the microwave. With my foot midair steeping out of this pastry temple I took my first bite. My foot was left dangling as I about-faced and reentered to order more from these artist of taste. Literally eating here every day would be my best advice...

Where do I begin…read more.. This place was full of let downs. As we entered there was no one at the counter to help us with our order for a good 3 minutes. For our order, we wanted to eat our gelato in a cup but we were unable to because the staff said there were no spoons. When we finally got what we order (which was one strawberry, one Violeta and one melon) they tasted absolutely terrible. The melon tasted like water and aspartame, the strawberry tasted super sour, and the Violeta tasted like Chapstick. The cone tasted better than gelato!! We paid €10,50 total and it was definitely not worth it. Would NOT recommend to anyone.
