This place is a great place for breakfast in Vigo! Not only is the atmosphere super cute, but they…read morehave a huge menu for breakfast food, which is pretty atypical for a European country, especially Spain. They had quite a few options for people who can't eat gluten as well, like yogurt with muesli and gluten free bread with multiple spread options. I ordered the yogurt, gluten free bread with hummus and olive spread, café con leche, and a fresh squeezed juice with pineapple, strawberry, apple, lemon, and celery. Everything was delicious and the staff was very nice and understanding of my restrictions!

Delicious zumos. We ordered the "bosque rojo" & it was AMAZING! The locale is super cute with great…read moreproducts for sale. Drinks are a little on the pricy side but ingredients are fresh and freshly squeezed.

I'm on a mission - to find Spain's best churros, even if it kills me (or causes lots of deep-fried…read moredough to coagulate in my arteries). I think I've struck gold (deep-fried, crispy gold, that is!) at Bonilla. When I've stayed out a wee bit too late and am physically and mentally dragging, I'll stop by for some churros y chocolate. The churros, freshly made in the morning, are crispy with a perfectly fried exterior, and covered in an ample amount of sugar. The interior is slightly chewy and absorbs lots of chocolate - no soggy, undercooked churros here! Galicia has some of the richest, best hot chocolate that I have tasted in Spain thus far. The chocolate at Bonilla is smooth, creamy, and rich. It was much lighter and milkier than I prefer, but of the perfect viscosity for dipping the churros. Because Bonilla is very close to Plaza Principe, the prices are a little steep (2.50 for the chocolate and 4 small churros for 1 euro). It's money well-spent, so no complaining from me. The cafe solo is also perfect for days when I don't feel the need to overindulge (e.g., my jeans are getting tight).

I love a recession-busting special, especially when said special involves three of my favorite…read morethings: tortilla española, an empanadilla, and café solo. For under three euro, you can eat enough food to tide you over for breakfast, lunch, and possibly dinner. Although there is an a la carte menu, most patrons seem to order from one of the five combination specials available. The deal is alluring and the kitchen is constantly whipping up tortillas, making the restaurant smell divine. But after a bite of this tortilla, I was disappointed to find the inside fairly liquidy (gross?) and plop! - the entire slice collapsed on the plate. The empanadilla did not fare much better. Both the crust and the filling were very dry. The dryness translated to a lack of flavor for both the meat filling and the pastry shell. The meal was not a complete bust - I enjoyed my coffee and was able to read Faro de Vigo in a relaxing environment.

I completely disagree with the previous review...THIS PLACE IS GREAT. The tortilla is "blanda"…read more(soft), so if that's not your thing, don't order it. HOWEVER...the calamari, zorza (marinated pork) and empanadillas are to die for. The best part - the price. You can easily have dinner for 7-8 euros, including a couple beers. Un local super conocido en Vigo por sus empanadillas. Tapas de todo tipo, (la mejor zorza que probe en la vida) canas, etc....precio baratismo...no te lo pierdas!
