And here I am again updating this wonderful trip to a lovely city of Galicia. I was lucky to be here several times maybe 5 in the last 9 years. Hope you enjoy the update on A Coruña!
Its been a welcome back to Galicia and A Coruña. Again , this time a shorter stay but always pleasant full of memories ,good company and more souvenirs. I was on Air Nostrum with enough time in Madrid just to catch the flight to Coruña small airport. There friend pick me up and went to the hotel and then out….
The hotel was a perennial stay then was just beginning but it was my central lodging in future trips. It is the Attica 21 Hotel, very modern contemporary in a nice area just about 6 km from the beaches. The district of Matogrande very up and coming area with lots of night life too. It is about 5 minutes by car from the airport fast driving. The hotel has spacious modern rooms and a great breakfast restaurant with private parking and helpful staff.

From there we went out for dinner, and first had a drink with tapas at Soho Café, a trendy place with plenty of locals. We had some cañas or tall glass of beer Estrella Galicia, and then some bits of cheese and ham; great place and good company! webpage: https://sohocafecoruna.com/
As it is the custom, we went out to another place for dinner, and this one was modern and trendy as well lots of university students and older crowd as well very nice, and great staff and food. We had the same beer Estrella Galicia with raxo de Puerco or pork bits with potatoes, and most of all lots ot talking. The place is call Bogarts Baar a mix of food and drinks, restaurant with high chairs and long high tables in a modern setting , young and vibrant. All was good. I still follow them in FB.

Next day was all work, and then we went to a nice cafeteria, the ones workers come to eat lunch ,very local outside the city on your way to Sada, you get your buffet style place with a drink and dessert and coffee for about 15 euros; nice local ambiance and quiet family place. Cafeteria Restaurant Al Paso at Carretera N-VI, km 582 Sada. Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Restaurante-Asador-Al-Paso-403339543165966/
It was time to head back home and was driven to the airport of A Coruña for my Iberia flight to Madrid and then Nantes France, where my car was waiting for the trip home in 1h30. Of all these flight connections and metro, taxi, personal car all went smooth and nice, quite perfect trip. It just remains an area to come with more time. that is a promise. And I did!
