I ordered a cheeseburger with lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes, and they added mayonnaise which I didn't ask for. I also ordered a strawberry milkshake, but I think I got a smoothie instead. The food was good, but it wasn't what I ordered.

Must go to when visiting Valdivia! I’ve been here so many times already, and this is easily the best place to go to for a quick bite or a drink with friends. The beer is excellent, and they rotate their taps every week, so there is always something new to try. The same goes for the menu, it changes every season. They also have a daily menu (until 15.30, not on weekends) which comes with a drink and is really cheap, they announce it daily on their Instagram. The food is really good, they make everything themselves with fresh ingredients and offer some vegan options.

Favourite place in Valdivia! They have a great variety of brewed beers (when I went there was one cider option available as well), you can go and fill your growler whenever you want. The place has a cool vibe and the staff is very friendly, there’s also a menu available on lunch hours. I absolutely recommend this place. Cheers 🍻

It's a fantastic place to drink and eat. Fabulous beers (West Coast IPA is excellent & Pisco Sours are very strong) and superb octopus, prawns, calamares dish with potato wedges. Innovative, good quality food and served by nice, groovy young people who are all 'muy amable'. Ate and drank and bought 3 tee shirts. One of the best experiences in Chile, including Santiago.

Best restaurant and craft beer in town by far. Get the fish tacos. They take you to happiness. And the cider pairing is perfect as it's tart rather than sweet.
