Eating out in Villaverde: prices, opening hours, tips
Lunch in Villaverde is cheapest between 2 pm and 4 pm. A three-course ‚menú del día‘ with a drink rarely costs more than 12 euros. In the evening, things quieten down and prices rise slightly. The menus at Restaurante Mahoh at Sitio de Juan Bello and at Manduca at number 57 on the same street as La Villa are in Spanish. Keep some cash in your pocket, as the smaller establishments prefer to be paid in cash. The ‚Queso majorero‘ with protected designation of origin is served straight onto your plate all around the village.
