Restaurante Bodegón Joype — Restaurant in Logroño

From the outside it looks like a small unattractive bar but walk in & there's a pleasant restaurant area. For lunch there's a menu del día at only €10 which includes starters, mains, desserts & drinks (water or wine). It's traditional Spanish cuisine very well done - i had the starter of garbanzo beans with chorizo & it was a tasty & filling rendition. Other starters were mixed salad, seafood paella etc. For lunch I chose the chicken cooked in beer, and it came with hand cut fries that were almost like crisps. My partner had the lomo with pimentos and the sauce was very good too. For desserts we had the coffee flan & cheese tart, both were beautiful. It's mainly frequented by locals around the area, as the waiter knew all the diners and how they liked their coffee. He was friendly & had a wicked sense of humor - when asked about the flan, he replied it was home made by a factory somewhere lol! Now here's a guy who loves his job. The location is way off the beaten track so it doesn't over filled but honestly it's as good as & even better than other popular restaurants...

Moreover, although there was still 30 minutes in afternoon lunch time, the waiter rudely refused to seat us for anything other...

With two day’s notice We pre ordered the suckling pig. This dish didn’t disappoint I am a retired chef and the meat just fell off the bone. Crispy skin and the juices of the cooked meat for a pouring sauce bread bowl and salad included. Would easily feed a party 4 to 6 people. Have a splurge on your holidays and just try it amazing. This newly wed couple owners, deserve the acclaim of this dish if you love pork this is on...
