Gluten free ⭐ Es una despensa antigua para visitar y conocer un local de hace más de cien años (atractivo turístico) Venden chocolates de familias que hacían sus recetas antiguamente. Todo para llevarte de recuerdo. Tienen unas galletitas de almendras que son un sueño, simples y ricas. Buena atención y la señora es súper dulce y amable. Estoy subiendo lugares sin gluten en @glutenfreelosophy

Merece la pena visitar esta mercería que tiene muchos objetos del pasado. La dueña es realmente amable. El entorno es muy agradable. Además puedes tomar algo en la terraza. Ojalá se conserve muchos años.

Es una tienda antigua preciosa con muchos detalles bonitos. La mujer que nos ha atendido era encantadora y nos hemos comido un pastel muy bueno.

Extraordinary beautiful little corner shop with shop furniture and machines from the 1920s conducted by some very friendly young ladies. They sell some gift articles, sweets and a fine choice of Moscatel de Setúbal. Do not miss to visit, if you are in Setúbal. I loved it. Outside you find some nice and native market place restaurants with fish and meat dishes.
