Roncevalles Dinner - 19 days away

[DowtyCamino]

In 2014, we had our first Pilgrim's dinner at the Bar Roncevalles con terazza. The fresh trout that night still lingers on my pallet.
I see now that the albergue offers dinner (and breakfast).
Who's had it and who recommends which?

My friend and I booked both dinner and breakfast for our camino this summer. Hopefully it won't be trout...

To each his own. The trout was amazing!!

The albergue itself does not offer dinner nor breakfast, but they sell now tickets for pilgrimsdinner (€ 10,00) and breakfast (€ 3,50) in one of the two restaurants (La Posada and Casa Sabina). So you can decide whether you want to do this or not.
In fact I do not recommend to take a breakfast: the restaurant doe not open before 7 AM and then you will have to queue up to get your breakfast. In the albergue itself you will find lots of coin operated vending machines, where you can buy sandwiches, fruit, yoghurt and drinks for a small breakfast, and in a half hours walk you will be in Burguete where you can have a proper breakfast in a coffee bar.

In nearby Burguete there is only one church, next to it is a small plaza and at the back of the plaza a GREAT cafe/bar which is open early every morning and very pilgrim friendly. Within their complex is the local fronton court. I have always stopped here on my way down from Roncesvalles. If is still dark as you leave Roncesvalles be sure to wear or carry your head torch.

Avoid breakfast. Starts at 7 (ie you get through the door long after) and was the most meagre bit of dry bread ever seen. No second helpings.
Walk on to the next village for supermarket and cafe

Dinner - basic but social. Not many options unless you cook yourself
