Después de andar por la ciudad vieja, visitar el castillo, comprar souvenirs y ver la cantidad de propuestas gastronomícas que hay en la ciudad, no nos equivicamos al elegir Laila. Ubicada en una estrategica esquina, llama la atención su decoración de color rosado. Amplio ventanal con marquesina. Pocas mesas, a nuestro alrededor habido familias almorzando, hombres y mujeres solas tomando una cerveza, intimo se puede decir que es el local. Muy buena atención del personal. Nos entendimos bien ante mi dificultad con el idioma de Shakespeare, no lo domino muy bien. Lugar limpio, buenz iluminación, sillas y mesas cómodas. Tal vez a algunos no le guste tanta proximidad con los otros comensales. No me acuerdo si funcionó el wifi. Cuenta con Sanitarios. Carta breve y contundente. Bien divididas las propuestas: dulces, saladas, bebidas, postres, etc.. Muy buena cafeteria aunque a decir verdad pedí una chocolatada muy loca y colorida, con malvaviscos, granas, crema, muy apetitosa (Ruby rose). Más otra infusión y una especie de parrillada vegana: Increíble!!!. Desde hongos gratinados, hasta chorizo y hamburguesa Veggie, huevos, garbanzos, tomate, con mix verdades, pan, muy buen presentado (The Veggie one). En su punto justo de cocción y temperatura. Nada grasiento.

The girls are absolutely amazing – such excellent service! I highly recommend this place. The only downside is that the restaurant is only open three days a week, which I find a bit unusual.
