"This delightful village is famous for its “Cocido Maragato”, a dish that for centuries has, against convention, been served here in reverse order (first the meat, then the chickpeas, followed by the soup at the end). At Coscolo, the special feature of this legendary recipe is that it is prepared with products that are smoked, cured and prepared on the property using ingredients sourced from the local area. To this stew the Navarra-born chef here likes to add tiny details that add even more personality, hence the change of name of the dish on the menu to that of his restaurant (“Cocido Coscolo”). Leave your car in the car park at the entrance to the village as only local residents are allowed to drive in." - Michelin Inspector

Don’t go. The best advice you’ll get today. They try to “innovate” cocido and only ruin it: scarce meat (no lacón), dry morcilla and chorizo covered with mojo picón to hide it, and an overly salty soup served at the end (which makes no sense). The place is filled with photos of the owners (sugar include), who seem more important than the food itself. And the treatment depends on how much they think they can get out of you: for us, it was awful. Rude, unfriendly, and overpriced (over €50 for what elsewhere costs €20). On top of that, they charged for bottled water without warning, and parking is far away. The only redeeming part: their waitress Alba, who was kind and professional.

Great place, super clean and comfortable. The hotel and rooms have the same style as the town, new and fresh. The bathroom and towels are super clean and the shower have a nice water pressure. The only down side is the check in time, u have to be there before 6 pm, if not u will be left on the street. 2 couples arrived after 6 and couldn't check in, it was very up setting for them. Also there is nothing open there at night or in the morning, beside the very simple coffee and little muffins include with the room. The place deserve a 5 start but the management deserve a 1 start, in a place where time has stop can't rush u to arrive in a rush, they need to up grade their system to offer a better service

Terrible service and bland food. Nothing, nothing special. The lady was rude to answer with wild gesticulations when a non-meat-eater try to order different from, by the way, extremely boring "cocido maragato". As a vegetarian (we called in advance to inform them of my choice), i felt humiliated when they gave me a socalled salad, lettuce and some olives. That was it! I will never ever return. What a way of ruining a day for a group of friends. Needless to say what this means for this little village's reputation!!

COCIDO FOR EVER You make your reservation in advance and you will have best in class cocido maragato. 3 courses, first meats, thereafter vegetables an the soup to finish. And sweets. This is the only choice, no fish nor salads nor meat, just the cocido maragato. And you know what? There is no need, this is the best choice in the most beautiful mediaeval town. Really pays off visiting. And of course you will be 20 minutes away from the most beautiful cathedral in Spain and one of the most in Europe

Very nice restaurant in a small special town. They only serve the specialty of the area which is cocido Maragato. All in all, an excellent dining experience.
