A unique restaurant located alongside the city walls (the name Caleña is a reference to the type of stone used in its construction) and part of the La Casa del Presidente hotel, which was once the home of Adolfo Suárez (the first elected president of the Spanish government in its modern democratic era).This elegant eatery, occupying a rustic, glass-fronted annexe in the garden area of the hotel, has its own independent access and is run by young chef Diego Sanz, who aims to create an experience that takes guests on a journey across the roots of Castilian cuisine, albeit from a modern perspecti

They have a unique and quite elaborate dessert, called Pastel chorreante de almendra (Dripping almond cake), which should be ordered at the beginning of the meal!

El Almacén in Avila offers traditional cuisine with notable views of the city walls. Reviews frequently praise the high quality of food, particularly well-grilled meats, and attentive service creating a pleasant atmosphere. However, some guests cite concerns regarding value for money, citing high prices relative to portions. Issues with meal pacing, inconsistent dish execution, and occasional management oversights were also noted.

It suits visitors prioritizing ambiance and traditional flavors, though expectations regarding cost and service consistency should be managed.
Suitable for diners prioritizing views and traditional flavors, but maintain realistic expectations regarding price and service consistency.

It has a large bar area, perfect for tapas, chatting or enjoying
