Sidreria El Cantabrico - Navia

Visited by chance and on basis of Trip advisor reviews. Very small restaurant but full of people: drinking, having tapas at the bar, and eating. We had steak: it was simply prepared, a huge portion, and cooked as we asked. Food seemed generally good value. But for me the biggest plus is that it’s really popular with locals, and that speaks volumes!

The food is delicious, the price is excellent and the service is the best. Good value for money. I recommend it

While staying overnight in Navia, we were lucky to find a restaurant that was open due to a holiday. Lucky indeed as it turned out, because Sidreria El Cantabrico was an absolute winner. Waiting in the bar for the restaurant to open, required a few pre-dinner drinks, and the barman with a great sense of theatre, performed the trick of holding a cider bottle as far away as possible from the glass before pouring in the cider. Asturian cider is a little like Somerset Scrumpy and you don't need a lot to feel quite mellow, but we enjoyed perhaps a little more than we should have, just to see the pouring custom one more time. The meal that followed was equally impressive, with an intensely flavoured shellfish soup, chock full of crustacea, followed by perfectly steamed mussels and fried baby squid. The service was so friendly and efficient, with not a word of English, but we had no trouble in making our requests understood in rather bad Spanish. A great evening all round for less than 18 euros per person (there were 4 of us) including a bottle of wine and the ciders.

Excelente trato, los platos abundantes, precio justo y muy ricos. Recomiendo especialmente el pollo al ajillo y el pastel de pescado . Muchas Gracias Begoña
