Most life-giving and refreshing stop on the Camino! Maria was precious and so kind and welcoming! She put stools under our feet and settled our backpacks down, all with a smile and sweet arm pats! She made sure we were fed and comfortable! Then she gave us a tour of the chapel nearby! After a very hard stretch of the trail, this was SUCH A JOYFUL EXPERIENCE!!! 😍💖

Maria Del Carmen attended us as we ended our 3rd day of the Camino. The service was the best we have had yet. She was so considerate and gave us stools for putting up our feet and resting. Muchas gracias. You HAVE to definitely stop here. We felt like family and spent a few hours there and get to know a lot more of the people on the Camino. Maria took us to the local church and even sent me on my way with pan and chorizo. Maria eres un ángel. Keep doing what you are doing and your kindness changes lives. You have left a very large print on my heart.

Real Camino spirit, by the barstaff👍🤩. The moment we were finished ordering café con leche, she brought out a stool each for us, to put up our peregrino legs. And even came with a icepack for my fellow travellers sore knee. Top service

The most wonderful place. We love Maria!!! This is a great place to stop before Hospital de Bruma, and it's your last chance for food. They love pilgrims here. Put up your feet and relax for a moment here!

Carmen of Casa Avelina is heaven sent, a camino angel. Enjoyed my bocadillo & aquarious with a joyful heart. Thank you so much Carmen, your kindness was heart warming & may God Bless you always because you are a blessing to many.

Great service. Perfect stop for a coffee on the Camino. The bread can drive by while we were there and we bought enough to save for breakfast the next day!

The food served here is typical, e.g bicadillos. However, the people who run this place take good care of the pilgrims. Service is the absolute best, they welcome everyone with such warmth.

Best stop on the Camino Ingles! Lady of the house very welcoming and caring. Bought drinks and ice creams, house provide bread olives and salmi which were delicious! Heard comments that it was like arriving home to you mom! We really felt well looked after! Thank you Casa Avelina you made a tough day so much better!

A must stop the owner is very accommodating, she will give you a chair to put your bags so that it's not on the floor, a stool for your leg to rest. A very friendly environment

Nice place to do the last stop before reaching Betanzos during St. James Way (English way). The staff was extremly friendly, helpful and welcoming.

The best warm welcome for pilgrims. Simple and good food and drink. Maria del Carmen and Avelina are incredibly kind and make this an unforgettable stop along the Camino

When you are walking El Camino, the only thing you want after 15-20km is to take off your boots, eat some food, and have a rest in a shadow. Well, everything and more you will find in this place. The ladies owners are taking care of everyone so sincerely, so kind, that it touches deeply: even dry ice for tired legs and free savoyardy biscuits to coffee. And smiles, and the very best attention. We are grateful for it. Thank you!

Nice bar, made welcome. The bar staff whilst cleaning the tables nudged mine causing my coffee to spill Slightly. She hurried off and returned with a fresh saucer and biscuits and tapas. Couldn't do enough for me. 👍

I have never experienced such kind & attentive service as from Maria Carmen at this restaurant. A tiny woman with a huge heart whose kindness gave me strength. In addition, the food was delicious & the coffee was hot! Everything a pair of weary peregrinos needed. Thank you so much!

The hostess, I believe her name is Maria was one of the kindest women I have ever met. I came in soaking wet, tired and cold from a stormy day She sat me down, took my wet coat, put it on hanger, took my wet pack, set it on a chair and then got a footstool for me to put my feet up. I got a ham sandwich big enough for three meals and a Coke for under five euros. That woman gave 20 to 25 people in that room all special attention. She went around the room with cookies and warm tapas handing them out. She wrapped up my leftover sandwich in aluminum foil and then put it in a plastic bag. And as I was leaving, she put a stamp identifying the business, and then had another beautiful stamp of a Pilgrim. Probably will be my fondest memory from the Camino.

Cannot rate this place enough, the ladies are amazing and so keen to help and make you feel special. The way they treat you as soon as you walk through the door. 😁. Definitely a highlight of the Camino.. ❤️
