They offer a lunch menu on weekdays that's really cheap, 11€ including 2 dishes, 1 drink and 1 dessert. I used to go there anytime with friends, but now I always try to take advantage of the menu deal because it's actually a lot of food and the price is great! The staff is really helpful and nice, some of them can be a bit too informal sometimes but I like that. One might think this is one of those place for teens, but I ate there with my parents once and they both loved it so much they go there quite often now!

The staff is usually nice, but sometimes if the place is a bit crowded you can feel they don't really pay attention to you. The place looks lovely but I personally think they put too much effort into making the place look great and few effort into building a set of dishes that people can actually enjoy, because the prices are pretty expensive for the quality of the food you're served. I used to go there often but since a similar restaurant opened in Valencia and I enjoy it better, I haven't come back ever since.

I like the concept, yet it's the delivery that got me in a bit of tizzy. I definitely love the decor and the crazy sayings having on the tin novelty items around the diner. This place seats large groups and big families, about 30 people at least. When I first came, they told me the place already had reservations. This made my heart sink since my husband and I were both craving serious American food after being in Spain for a week. Now at his stay at Peggy Sue's, my husband did have a pleasant time. Maybe because the hot dog he ordered had French's mustard and Heinz ketchup from America by the way which he appreciated but what he really was blown away was by the crunchy potato chips on top of his hot dog. To justify removing the two stars: First, no one gave me any utensils: spoon, fork, knife. Unless someone thinks I should eat my dessert with my fingers. I'm not sure how or why that happened. Then, I got a slice of pie, but call me weird, because when I order pie, is there supposed to be an odd yellow syrup of goo squirted on top of it. (I assume that it's either caramel sauce or toffee or butterscotch of some sort.) That's right. So bravely, I go on to try said goo--and it is ungodly sweet. Eyeballs maxed out to size, I tried to eat more. Third, I go to use the bathroom, and there is no more toilet tissue left. No to mention that the bathroom is in badly in need to attention to start with. I understand it's a touristy place so more people use it, but it was getting to the point that people threw paper towels on the floor instead of the trash can, since the trash receptacle was overflowing. I should mention the last disappointment was when the menu said that the jukeboxes work without money, and I approach both of the jukeboxes and none of them work--I'm told that they are not in order in Spanish by a bunch of teenagers who have tried. Of course, I was told this after I deposited 10 cent euros into said non-working machine. Oh for the love of fast food!

If I could give more stars I would. We started with a drink on the lovely roof terass, overlooking…read morethe church cupole. Ordered some aubergine chips and halloumi skewers. The aubergine chips were amazing. Soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, with drips of honey. The halloumi skewers were also very good, with a nice grilled flavour. For dinner we had two different burgers, and a salad. With it came home made french fries. Everything was delicious and ecological. Extra plus for the good gluten free bread!! They have a good selection of gin. So a gin&tonic is a must. They owners are super friendly and makes you feel very welcomed!

It is a hidden gem which differentiates itself from the many pizzerias and Italian Restaurants along one of the streets near the Church. The owners, Gregor and Allan were so friendly and accommodating. One of our diners was a vegetarian and gluten free and they were able to prepare a beautiful meal for her. The decor and ambience is really unique and special with several different dining areas including a beautiful rooftop terrace. If you are in the area, I would definitely recommend dining here.

Enrico was the most friendly waiter, and we met him again on our second visit, when he was their with his wife and having a meal too. So if the staff eat at the same palce they work, got to have something about the place. ALWAYS BOOK!!!!! Can't fault the food nor the service. You have to get the attention of the staff sometimes, but that's only because they are so busy. Once you have they are very attentive. Air Conditioned, Children's Menu, Disabled Facilities, Limited Parking, but street parking normally OK, if not competing with the church. Highly recommend the fillet steak, and the spare ribs. The children's menu is equally good. One of the young chefs came out to talk to us on our second visit.
