This is a fantastic location with great views, but I recommend staying away from the restaurant side. Before our meal, the server walked around with an enormous tray of warm bread and said, "We start with bread here. Would you like some?" We had bread plates in front of us, and we accepted. The meal was delicious. When she brought the bill, it was hidden inside a closed book, and she also stood waiting for payment with the card payment machine in hand. I usually look over my bill, but due to it being higher end and inside the book, with her standing ready for payment, I would've felt awkward, so I paid. I later realized why they did that: once I saw my bill, I discovered we'd been charged for the chunks of bread (€5 each), and for an additional glass of wine. I've been to high end and very high end restaurants around the world, and I've never seen this before at such an establishment.

It also came Fresh Hake from Santander, served with tomato sauce, but instead olive oil. (I was given lots of oil on my plate, but the lady - well known world traveler - decided to exchange with mine Hake. We got the Local Cantebrian Dessert. See photos.

La Pirula is situated in what is considered downtown Santander (actually, I think it's referred to as El Centro) so you'll see folks from all walks of the life dining here or walking past the restaurant. The restaurant has a few tables for dining outside. However, the restaurant is on a somewhat busy street so if car noise isn't your thing, then it might be advisable to eat indoors. Overall, I thought the service was fine. While our waitress wasn't overly friendly, she wasn't rude.
