Located directly on the city's main promenade, Café Suizo is a local institution and longstanding cafe with a view. It offers outdoor seating and serves great value breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and very decent coffee.
Cafes
The selection of cafes in Santander is very decent, ranging from the ubiquitous tapas bars to bakeries and ice cream parlours serving high-quality homemade gelato. Many cafes double as bars in the evening when beer and wine come to replace the daytime "lungo" and "cortado". Santander is also famous for its pastries and delicious cheesecakes (quesadas pasiegas).
