Does anyone know what the above area is like for cafes and bars? The Vuelta TT starts here next month. So we're looking for somewhere for late morning breakfast. If all else fails
I would assume Toledo station has a bar or cafe. Just need to know the general situation rather than specific recommendations.
TIA

Jan,

There appears to be a blog all about that zone.

http://smbenquerencia.blogspot.com/

If it is the one I think it is then it is not a particuarly great neighbourhood, and is dominated by the industrial park there (which smells a bit).

But, in Spain there seems to be bars and cafeterias for breakfast on every street corner. And given the closeness of the poligono, there will be plenty. I wouldn't worry about it, you'll get your toast with tomato

:-)

p.s. In front of the station in Toledo are plenty of bars and restaurants.

Thanks..the TTs always seem to start in industrial type parks, so what you say makes sense. I suppose its because they have such large parking areas...and of course its the weekend.
