La Balastera Restaurant

Our latest discovery in Palencia was the Bar La Balastera, in Asturias Avenue just off one of the entrances to the city (area known as electrolysis or Barrio San Antonio). It has a very varied menu with main dishes, snacks, sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers and best of all, the specialty 'eggs broken' in different ways. In our case five of us were having dinner: 2 burgers complete with egg, 2 sandwiches Balastera, one hot dog with bacon and cheese and some scrambled eggs with potatoes and 'jijas'. It came to 5.00 € per person including drinks . One recommendation: If you intend to go to dinner one night on Friday or Saturday, I highly recommend arriving early for dinner (about 21.30 hours).

Very cheap set menus! It is opposite the new football stadium The New Balastera. Has earned a huge reputation for having very economical menus. Always busy so I would recommend booking as it is impossible to find a free table.
