"(Translated by Google) The sandwiches, which I have tried, were delicious; especially the chicken breast with bacon, tomato and cheese, the tortilla and the roast ham. I have also tried the chocolate brownie, the only drawback is that it needs a little cooking, nothing more.
Always delivers on time or even before.
Very happy with the service!
(Original)
Los bocadillos, que he probado riquísimos; en especial el de pechuga de pollo con bacon, tomate y queso, el de tortilla y el de jamón asado. También he probado el brownie de chocolate, la única pega es que le falta un poco de cocción, nada más.
La entrega siempre a tiempo o incluso antes.
Muy contentos con el servicio!"
