"Amazing place, food and service"
"They also recently remodeled to provide a bit more seating space."
"Good food and good prices"
5 This is a great stopping point for a trip back from the beach to Madrid. We always try to stop here on our way back from Alicante for their delicious pepitos (steak and ham sandwiches). The service is fast and friendly and the food never disappoints. They also recently remodeled to provide a bit more seating space.

5 Muy buen servicio, increíble para hacer una parada durante un trayecto. Camareros muy amables y atentos, bocadillos bien generosos y bollería de lo más irresistible.
5 Nos ha atendido Ángela, muy bien todo genial!! El Queso chapoo, con aceite de Jaraba, los torreznos diferentes y rivos. Lo recomiendo.
5 Es como estar en casa, la tortilla exquisita, los torreznos del 10 y sobre todo la atención, inmejorable! Gracias por el ratito chicos, fue un placer! Volveremos!
5 Parada muy recomendable en La Mancha. La comida está muy rica, con producto típico de la zona y bien preparado. Se nota la calidad y el cuidado en lo que sirven. El personal es muy amable y el trato hace que la experiencia sea todavía mejor. Además, el café es realmente bueno, algo que siempre se agradece en un bar de carretera. Un sitio para volver. Te puedes comprar los famosos Miguelitos de la Roda.
5 Very cleen, good coffee and food. Excellent service.
5 Un gran descubrimiento en plena autovía Ap 31 en el kilómetro 34.6 en La Roda. Excelente embutido y buen precio, la atención profesional y cercana. Muy recomendable.
