Los Arcos

Picos de Europa


Part smart restaurant, part simple cafe, part bustling sidrería, Los Arcos pulls in a lot of its fans with its €15 menú, available for lunch and dinner. It also offers a good range of raciones of local meats, seafood and cheeses, plus a few gluten-free choices, but it's more about atmosphere than food quality.
