El Buffet Verd, or “The Green Buffet” as it’s translated, is a vegetarian buffet restaurant with an interesting variety and homemade dishes. Try their eggplant croquettes, onion quiche, lentils, and gazpacho – especially the gazpacho if you haven’t tried it before or have doubts because it’s a cold soup- Try it at El Buffet Vert anyway because it’s what they’re known for. They have food for those who are lactose intolerant or have certain dietary restrictions. For individuals or groups, their specials start as low as €6; you can even ask for takeaway for as little as €3.70. (Weekends are a bit more expensive than weekdays, however).
