Este es un clásico de comida al paso que siempre tiene lo que para mi son los más ricos pasteles de pollo fritos, y con picante natural si prefiere. Si pasa por aquí, siempre es buena opción comerse uno. No se lo pierda.

Una opción rápida para comer algo de panadería, parva o simplemente desayunar, tienen prácticamente todo listo, el sabor es bueno y tienen asientos disponibles para comer o puedes pedir para llevar. El pastel de pollo, torta de carne y de pescado son ricos!

El viejo Baúl, es una típica cafetería de las que visitan en los pueblos, Venden gran variedad de productos como: Buñuelo muy rico y grandes, Pastel de pollo, palitos de queso entre otros, Sus sillas en la calle dan esa sensación agradable de estar en un pueblo compartiendo con familia Lo recomiendo si están en sabaneta, Una opción diferente a los tradicionales buñuelos del parque.
