Cafelito — Restaurant in Madrid

I have visited the place over 10 times, and each time, I have had a great experience. However, I wanted to review the last time i visited. I sat down on a holiday and was told I could not use my computer. I understand they are trying to turn over tables a quickly as possible.

We had a nice coffee and breakfast at Cafelito, and the prices were pretty fair.

We went for the breakfast menu with a cappuccino, pan con tomate, and juice, though the juice never showed up, and the bread took its sweet time (about 20 minutes).
