Okay, we have to admit, we gave it an extra star simply because we spent the night listening to…read moreleprechaun music in Spain. Not that we like leprechaun music but, in Spain? An ersatz Irish pub well out of the tourist lanes Cerveceria Triskel evidently sits well with the locals....music be damned.
This neighborhood hangout does a robust business in take-out food. Not something you see everyday. The clientele looks like a cross representation of the local population with the well dressed mixing well with the not so much.
There is a generous supply of complimentary tapas to go along with your drink but the light that shines the brightest here are the burgers. We started out with the idea of a simple hamburger but like most simple things our simple burger got out of hand pretty fast. We don't know how we did it but our burger ended up with:
A hamburger patty
Two layers of goat cheese
Tomato
Lettuce
Onion
Lomo
Egg
And a sesame seed bun
All for 7 euros.
And the best part was it was delicious.
Cervecería Triskel is a blue collar eats place and we will be sure to wear our best blue collar when we return...which we will.
