Are you looking for a place to have breakfast in Santander?

If you are looking for a place to have breakfast in Santander, you are in luck. Keep in mind that in Spain, breakfast is the lightest meal of the day (unfortunately), so it is common to see locals having just a quick coffee with something sweet.

You will see many cafes in the city; unfortunately, in most of them, the quality of the coffee is mediocre, although you will likely see many “pinchos” to have for breakfast.

To make your life easier, here are some popular places that are certainly worth considering if you’re looking for a good coffee and a decent breakfast!
