This family-run bakery and coffee shop was founded in 1902. The counter is long and the booths are many, but you have to get there as early as you can to avoid waiting in line. The shop fills with locals trading gossip and slowly eating their breakfasts. Try the mallorca con mantequilla (a round, flat pastry dusted with confectioner’s sugar and served with butter). In 1963, kitchens were built in the adjacent building number 261 and became a restaurant. After 110 years of operation, in April 2012, it was announced its closure. In 2016 the restaurant reactivated the activity led by the founder's granddaughter Isabel Obrador Rigo.

I took this in 2011 and hope that the restaurant is still there.

Not many eateries have a line to get in. That must be a great place.
