Pastelería Basilio

Top choice in Extremadura


Just down the hill south of the Plaza Mayor, this old-school pastry shop has been around since 1939 and is still run by the same family. It serves up traditional Spanish pastries in all their glory, as well as regional delicacies like pimentón de La Vera. One real local speciality is perrunillas, delicate cookies made with lard, lemon and cinnamon.
