Caminito Pendiente

In Caminito Pendiente, you can take a beer or wine with friends and you can eat delicious tapas.

It’s in Vigo, in Manuel Núñez Street which is near Principe Street, the main pedestrian street in town.  So after dinner I can go with my friends to a disco because it’s situated near the party (clubbing) area.

If you go with a friends or your partner to have dinner you can order a lot of delicius tapas. These tapas could be squid, Spanish omelette, croquettes, or small pasties filled with tuna or cod or meat, etc.

It´s not expensive because the tapas are big and the quality is good. It costs around €10.

Although if you don't feel like eating a lot, you can take a beer or wine and they give you these with a tapa for free.

You can also have breakfast before coming to class. I think it’s cheap and the homemade cake is very good. They serve a good breakfast.

The atmosphere is cosy and I especially like the decoration because it’s very colourful. One thing that caught my attention is that the tables are made with colorful doors and inside there is a lamppost.

The waiter/waitress service is nice and the waiters are young and friendly.

If you want to taste real Spanish tapas you only have to go to Caminito Pendiente.

La Pepita Burger Bar

In la Pepita Burger Bar you can eat delicious hamburgers.

It is in Vigo, near Rosalia de Castro Street, in Oporto Street.

There is another one in El Corte Inglés.

In this restaurant, you can eat very different but very good hamburgers.

The hamburger “meat” is made with beef, pork, chicken, salmon, lamb and even spinach. 

all with different breads and ingredients such as rock lettuce;

different cheeses: cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, blue cheese, etc. And the

lettuce, tomato and onions are all cooked especially.

In the Pepita, they also have starters and accompaniments (side dishes) to take with your burger. In addition, you can eat delicious desserts, for example, brownies with ice cream. 

It is not expensive, because the quality of the hamburgers is good.  It costs around twenty euros.

The atmosphere is lively and the decoration is bright, spacious, modern and minimalist.

Those is one problem: you have to go with time to spare because you have to wait around thirty to forty-five minutes to get a table.

A lot of people know the place, including Erasmus guys.

A REGUEIFA GALICIAN TAVERN

A good restaurant for dinner in Vigo is A Regueifa. It's located in San Vicente street and it's five minutes from Puerta del Sol.

A Regueifa is one of my favourite restaurants because on Thursday you can listen to live music, while you're having dinner, and sometimes there is a group of Galician music.

This establishment is quite small, so reservations are recommended on weekends and holidays.

As you come into the restaurant, you see the tables and a bar where you can have some tapas. A Regueifa was the winner of "XIII Tapas Competition in Vigo" with its tapa "Fine pasta sack with ham and turnip greens, served in cocktail glass".

You can eat many local tapas like "Roast ham with potatoes" or "Spicy potatoes with garlic mayonnaise". I recommend it because of the high quality of their products.
