LIVE from the Camino No bull

[Tincatinker]

This will be old news to some but useful to others. There is a delightful bar opened directly opposite the municipal Albergue in Burgos. The Babia. Very pilg friendly (well they´d have to be wouldn´t they), veggie oriented food, the Sopa de Ajo is pilgrim rocket fuel, and they open at 7:00 am. Offering carrot juice to those who can´t cope with cafe-con-leche.

Burgos seems busy enough, two floors occupied and a cheerful buzz.

Is the "Muni" "El Cubo"?

Babia. That is a great little cafe/bar. Very friendly people running it.

Is the "Muni" "El Cubo"?

I'm referring to the association albergue right next to the cathedral.

Thanks for this! I am always on the lookout for veg options

Is this the place?



I arrived a little after noon on a Saturday, and this fellow came in and did sort of a one-man band thing for the kids. It was very entertaining!

The owner was indeed very nice. He offered to watch our bags if we wanted to go tour the cathedral while we waited for the albergue to open.

That's the one. I can still taste the garlic

Thanks also - yes always great to get first hand reports - will add it to our places to eat in Burgos - we aim to have an extra day here (in early Sept 15). Cheers
