This is a really nice beach. It's long, it's wide. There's plenty of space and only few international visitors. It's fun place, a safe place with lots of families. The beach itself is very nice, but also the woods backing the beach is a nice area for people who prefers some cool shade and some quiet. There is plenty of free parking all along the way, but keep in mind that in high season they still fill up fast! There's a bunch of restaurants to fill your hungry stomach. Also bathroom / shower facilities. And then the part we liked best: A nice boardwalk all along the beach. It goes on for miles. Dogs are also allowed on there. Perfect for folks who need some walks like us. Loved it.

Wonderful beach! Very big; not crowded at all; beautiful scenery and surroundings; free and abundant parking, as well as many amenities including bathrooms; a first aid centre; an ice cream/cold drink stand; and a restaurant/cafe. The drive down to the beach it's also lovely and scenic.

Lovely beach with trees around for picnicking areas. Bit out of the way place with 2 restaurants and a surf bar. Pity the red flag was flying so no swimming as it was very windy.

Either you like surfing or just chilling on the beach this is your place. For surfing a bit tough, quite heavy localism if you are looking for the "left", if you go to any other spot no problem. Wild and stunning views.

A perfect wide beach with a beautiful rest area among eucalyptus trees. There are bathrooms and showers. It’s very popular in high season so the ample parking is usually all occupied but if you wait around a bit, a spot will free up.

Went to Sidra El Gaitero for a guided tour which you have to book in advance. Afternoon tour was 17.00 till 18.30, cost 5 euroes, at the end, on your receipt you were given a credit to spend on free bottles of cider. You can buy everything from champagne, bottles of cider and apple juice from the souvenir shop.

Wonderful tour in spanish. The guide Eva was super well prepared and you get a full understanding of cider process making. Super nice the fact that you can exchange the 5€ entrance for products. More over the products aren't so expensive. I recommend to book. I would have liked to try more products but they let you try only the standard cider (it's a try, not a tasting).

Interesting tour through this cider farm. The tour is only in Spanish, but we enjoyed it anyways.

Interesting, but not very interactive. Wouldn't recommend to go with young children.

SrR

No englisch.

Perfect place to get to know the real spanish cider story.

(Translated by Google) One of the best parks in all of Villaviciosa, an outdoor space in the center of everything, a good option for many people to go, a very positive point is that on Wednesdays there is a trail in this place, a very good location for It attracts good people and is very easy to find, and around it there are a lot of bars and shops of all kinds, from hairdressers, clothing stores, to Alimerka, it is undoubtedly a perfect place. In my opinion it is a great place built in one of the best places in Villaviciosa, the atmosphere is very calm and there are a lot of people who come to this place to enjoy themselves, it also has a place to take small children so they can have fun . (Original) Uno de los mejores parques que hay en toda Villaviciosa, un espacio al aire libre en el centro de todo, una buena opción para que vaya mucha gente, un punto muy positivo es que los miércoles hay rastro en este lugar, una muy buena ubicación para atraer buena gente y es muy fácil de encontrar, además alrededor de él hay un montón de bares y tiendas de todo tipo, desde peluquerías, tiendas de ropa, hasta el Alimerka, sin duda es un lugar perfecto. En mi opinión es un gran lugar construido en una de los mejores sitios en Villaviciosa, el ambiente es muy tranquilo y hay un montón de gente que viene a este sitio a disfrutar, además tiene un sitio para llevar a los niños pequeños para que se diviertan.

(Translated by Google) A park in a large square. Here you can see the names of the most important towns in the Villaviciosa Council. You can also see a representation of the Villaviciosa estuary. Very well equipped with benches and places so that children and adults can enjoy this place. (Original) Un parque en una gran plaza. Aquí se pueden ver los nombres de los pueblos más importantes del Concejo de Villaviciosa. También podrás observar una representación de la ría de Villaviciosa. Muy bien dotada de bancos y lugares para que niños y mayores puedan disfrutar de este lugar.

(Translated by Google) Different park, you don't find the typical slide. It's more of a "park of the future" thing in which the swings are metal and the floor is padded to compensate, hahaha. There are plenty of benches, a small pond and an area to walk. (Original) Parque diferente, no te encuentras el típico tobogán. Es más bien rollo "parque del futuro" en el que los columpios son metálicos y el suelo acolchado para compensar, jajaja. Hay bastantes bancos, un pequeño estanque y zona para pasear.

(Translated by Google) Visually beautiful, as long as you don't pay too much attention to the "fertilizer" (so to speak) that is distributed throughout the garden areas. Be careful not to get into or let the children get into any place where there is grass because you will go home with a gift in your shoe. The swings are, to say the least, bizarre, especially the supposed slide on which my daughter has already gotten two bruises between her legs. About the pond: well, I think it doesn't have any type of filtration, so in a matter of a couple of days it is completely dirty. But, hey, overall, looking at it from the air (with a drone for example) it looks wonderful 🤷🏻‍♀️ (Original) Visualmente precioso , siempre y cuando no te fijes mucho en el "abono" ( por llamarlo de alguna manera ) que se encuentra repartido por las zonas ajardinadas. Tened cuidado de no meteros o dejar a los niños meterse en cualquier parte en el que haya hierba porque os iréis con un regalo en el zapato para casa . Los columpios son , cuanto menos , estrambóticos , sobre todo el supuesto tobogán en el que mi hija ya se ha hecho dos morados entre las piernas. Sobre el estanque : bueno creo que no tiene ningún tipo de filtración por tanto en cuestión de un par de días está totalmente sucio . Pero , oye , en conjunto , mirándolo desde el aire ( con dron por ejemplo ) se ve maravillosamente 🤷🏻‍♀️

Quite and relaxing place with fantastic views of Rodiles beach.

A beautiful spot on the ría.

(Translated by Google) Don't miss a boat ride with Carlos. Prices range from €6 to €10 (for 10 to 2 people) for half an hour, or you can extend the time. They also rent canoes for exploring the Villaviciosa estuary. (Original) No perderse un paseo en un barquito, con Carlos. Precio de 6 a 10 € ( de 10 a 2 personas) por media hora o puedes ampliar tiempo. También alquilan piraguas, para recorrer la ría de Villaviciosa.

(Translated by Google) Very quiet beach to be with the little ones since there are no currents. The bad thing is that you have to wait for high tide because otherwise the water won't come in. The dike protects the beach and separates it from the estuary and currents. In summer there are people but there is no comparison with the Rodiles beach opposite. (Original) Playa muy tranquila para estar con los pequeños ya que no hay corrientes. Lo malo es que hay que esperar a marea alta porque sino, no entra el agua. El dique protege la playa y la separa de la ría y de las corrientes. En verano hay gente pero ni comparación con enfrente que es la playa de Rodiles.

(Translated by Google) It is a small beach, in the Barra de la estuary, in Villaviciosa, when it is at low tide it has no water, which it recovers at high tide. The environment is very beautiful, since in front of it you have Rodiles beach, and the Misiegu Cove. There is a large meadow, eucalyptus trees, tables, showers, a bar and plenty of parking. It also has a bar, with a terrace, where they serve meals, closed on Wednesdays for rest. (Original) Es una pequeña playa, en la Barra de la ría, de Villaviciosa, cuando está en bajamar no tiene agua, que recupera con la pleamar.

Hay amplia pradera, eucaliptos, mesas, duchas,bar y abundante aparcamiento.Tambien tiene un bar, con terraza, en el que sirven comidas, cierra los miércoles por descanso.

(Translated by Google) A riverside setting, ideal for families and spending the day with children. If you're going to be wading in the estuary, it's best to wear shoes to avoid cuts on your feet, especially for the little ones; the town's health center appreciates it. If you're looking for fine sand and a beach, this isn't the place. (Original) Entorno fluvial, ideal para familias y pasar el dia con niños. Si vais a pisar la ría mejor con calzado para evitar cortes en los pies, sobre todo los más pequeños, el ambulatorio de la Villa os lo agradece. Si vas a buscar arena fina y playa, no es el sitio.

(Translated by Google) A very quiet spot, with plenty of shade to escape the sun and enjoy a picnic. Ideal for families with children (Original) Lugar muy tranquilo, con muchas sombras para refugiarse del sol y comer un picnic. Ideal para familias con niños

The food here is SO good! It can be a bit pricy, but the cheap wine and sidra more than makes up for it! Also, the only place I went to where they poured the sidra for you each time, which made a HUGE difference in the taste.

Very good food and nice service. Amazing ciders :) I especially liked scrambled eggs with potatoes (so much better than it sounds) and cheesecake.

Fantastic cider experience for a tourist. Super authentic feel, full of locals, great food and a beautiful space.

Upscale place with a 2.0 modern twist to traditional ciders and food. Best ham croquetas. Hidden upstairs cosy dinner place and very big adjacent room for groups and parties.

Very nice experience. Good food, great setting & very friendly staff!

Nice place, but a bit overpriced. We did enjoyed every dish.

Most delicious Asturian food!! Congrats we will come back

Looked good on the outside but the food took ages and the calamari was undercooked as forgot the order. Tried to point this out when paying, as plate hardly touched, but got shouted at. As foreigners, just paid and left. Very disappointing.

Friendly staff and decent food, good so if you're in the area. The Cesar salad was very good. The "patatas with 3 sauces" was just french fries with filling sauce...

Family run restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere and lots of choice of food. The staff are very friendly and they even have menus in English. Food is served fast and is similar to pub food in the UK (Asturian style!)

Its a good place to go grab some food quickly, but only on the days when it's not very busy. The food is good but some of the waiters aren't very understanding.

Professional, good range, decent quality, fair prices, good hours. Not my number one choice in Vv but among the best.

Great service friendly staff and the food was very good value , highly recommended

Absolutley amazing

The best pizza! We treat ourselves to pizza from here nearly once per week and we're never disappointed. Also, the staff are fantastic! They get busy and work very hard, but still manage to be welcoming and friendly every time. If you're anywhere near Villaviciosa, you should definitely eat here!!

Very tasty pizza, but the waiter was very stressed and he forgot about an order, it was difficult to get his attention for more drinks and dessert.

It is more like a delivery place, but the pizza is good.

Forgot order

Best pizza in the city.

Dog friendly 😍

(Translated by Google) A pizzeria that surprised us, freshly made pizzas, the truth is that they took very little time to make and they were delicious We recommend the boletus one but they were all delicious. Very good size and very good quality-price ratio We liked it a lot (Original) Una pizzería que nos sorprendió, pizzas recién hechas, la verdad que tardaron muy poco en hacerlas y estaban riquísimas Os recomendamos la de boletus pero estaban todas riquísimas. El tamaño my bueno y relación calidad precio muy buena Nos gustó mucho

Nice café next to a beautiful beach. What more could you ask for? 🙂

Bit of an out of the way place with a lovely beach and surf bar. Pity the red flags were flying as it was very windy so we couldn't go swimming.

Great service, great pizza...best view of the old art deco swim harbour. Loved it.

We sat down at a table and were quite quick, from the other side of the terrace, 'attended' with "do you have a reservation"? No, we didn't, and had to read from his face that this was not appreciated. We were told to take a seat at another table and that we would have to wait a bit, "of course, no problem". We never saw his face again. After 15 minutes a very kind waitress came with a thousand apologies, sorry for waiting so long and everything else (everything else?), super sympathetic, an angel. We ordered a Fanta, portion de croquettes and a portion gambas a la plancha. Drink was served pretty much immediately and the croquettes 10 minutes. After having enjoyed them, they were delicious, came the gambas, perfectly timed. Half of the gambas were as delicious as de croquettes, but the second half most of them were raw and left on the plate. Our adorable waitress apologised, clearly embarrassed, "don't worry, not your responsibility". She said her superior would take care of the bill. You would think that a disappointment like this is handled with care, but we had to wait another 20 minutes for the superior with a simple "sorry" and a poor discount of only 4 euro . You lost a customer, ordering not even my morning coffees there anymore. After an experience like we had today you're simply not costly, but too expensive.

Nice place staff not very friendly

Normal

(Translated by Google) The price per person, for regular portions, averages €25/€30. On this first visit, I didn't want to eat anything too heavy, so I can only praise the mixed salad and the squid afuegaos. Spectacular. The service was also great. I stopped by without a reservation to ask if I could sit down for lunch, and even though I had to leave before the 3 p.m. appointment, I enjoyed it like a champion. Very friendly, attentive, and the food was delicious, with competitive prices for a restaurant in a beach area. Highly recommended 😉 (Original) El precio por persona, comiendo raciones normales, es en promedio 25 / 30 €. En esta primera ocasión no quise comer nada demasiado pesado así que solo puedo valorar la ensalada mixta y los chipirones afuegaos. Espectaculares. El servicio también genial. Me pasé sin tener reserva a preguntar si podría sentarme a comer y, aunque tenía que abandonar la mesa antes del turno de las 15 disfruté como un campeón. Vamos, muy amables, atentos y muy rica la comida, con precios competitivos para ser un local en zona de playa. Recomendadísimo 😉

A very beautiful and easy route. It takes about three hours to go from the beginning of the route till a waterfall Molino De La Peña and back 🔁 Requires appropriate shoes and water

Excellent historic hiking area that gives one the opportunity to visit the old water mills (some of which are now museums), Roman ruins, Celtic archaeological sites and, if you are lucky, enjoy local Celtic music and taste wonderful food.

Amazingly lush river. Bring your boots though. Very muddy

Fantastic! It is perfect for beginners and go with the family.

Fantastic. A place for relaxing. Calm.

Nice easy track

(Translated by Google) You can feel magic in that place. It is as if problems are banned from entering. The purity of the environment, the gurgling of the waterfalls and the greenery in its different shades envelop you in a hug of true peace. We left there refreshed, although we were not able to do the complete route because we were with a 5-year-old child. Even so, it has been wonderful to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of this route. The spring and sunny day with 18 degrees has been very good. Keep in mind that after rainy days there can be a lot of mud. Today there was something but it was passable. I recommend 100%. (Original) Se puede sentir magia en ese lugar. Es como si los problemas tuvieran vetada la entrada. La pureza del entorno, el gorgoteo de las cascadas y el verdor en sus distintas tonalidades te envuelven con un abrazo de verdadera paz. Hemos salido renovados de allí, aunque no hemos podido hacer la ruta completa porque íbamos con un niño de 5 años. Aun así ha sido maravilloso sumergirnos entre la belleza natural de esta ruta. El día primaveral y soleado con 18 grados ha acompañado mucho. A tener en cuenta que tras días lluviosos puede haber bastante barro. Hoy había algo pero estaba transitable. Recomiendo 100%.

(Translated by Google) They presented it to us as the Asturian Sistine Chapel; none of that, starting because it does not have polychrome and it is a very village church. However, it has a spectacular simplicity that can already be seen in the porch and ends, in the interior, with a splendid apse. Very interesting visit. (Original) Nos la presentaron como la capilla sixtina asturiana; nada de eso, empezando porque no tiene policromía y es una iglesia muy de pueblo. Sin embargo tiene una sencillez espectacular que ya se aprecia en el pórtico y remata, en el interior,un espléndido ábside. Visita muy interesante.

(Translated by Google) San Juan de Amandi (San Xuan d'Amandi), in the town of Amandi, in the Asturian council of Villaviciosa, from the first third of the 13th century, is considered one of the most notable examples of Asturian Romanesque, both for its architectural treatment and for its impressive sculptural decoration. It has a rectangular floor plan, a single nave, a semicircular apse and a sacristy attached to the south side, arranged around a large portico from the 17th century. The Church of San Juan de Amandi has its origins in the pre-Romanesque period, according to documentary evidence, but stylistically it corresponds to the baroque phase of the Asturian Romanesque, with elements of a Gothic character. It has a single nave plan with a semicircular head. Two compartments and a semicircular portico on Tuscan columns that surround the church have been added to the north and south sides; Above this 17th century porch is a baroque belfry with two openings, from the 18th century. Walking through the building externally, there are two access portals: one on the front, richly decorated, with a pointed arch and strongly flared, and another on the south side, with a semicircular arch and simpler decoration. The body of the nave is finished with corbels. The semicircular apse is decorated with four columns that are finished with capitals; A checkered fascia runs horizontally across the apse. Inside, the chancel is separated from the nave by a semicircular triumphal arch supported by columns and decorated capitals. The apse is divided into two sections, separated by another semicircular sawtooth arch. The most significant thing is the double arch that adorns the entire head. (Original) San Juan de Amandi (San Xuan d'Amandi), en la localidad de Amandi, en el concejo asturiano de Villaviciosa, del primer tercio del siglo XIII, está considerada una de las muestras más notables del románico asturiano, tanto por su tratamiento arquitectónico como por su impresionante decoración escultórica. Consta de planta rectangular, de una sola nave, ábside semicircular y sacristía adosada al lateral sur, dispuesta en torno a un amplio pórtico del siglo XVII. La Iglesia de San Juan de Amandi tiene origen en época prerrománica, según noticias documentales, pero estilísticamente corresponde a la fase barroca del románico asturiano, con elementos de carácter goticista. Tiene planta de nave única con cabecera semicircular. A los lados norte y sur se han añadido dos compartimentos y un pórtico semicircular sobre columnas toscanas que rodea a la iglesia; sobre este pórtico del siglo XVII se sitúa una espadaña barroca de dos huecos, del siglo XVIII. Recorriendo externamente el edificio, se encuentran dos portadas de acceso: una en el imafronte ricamente decorada, de arco apuntado y fuertemente abocinada, y otra en el lateral sur, de arco de medio punto y decoración más sencilla. El cuerpo de la nave se remata con canecillos. El ábside semicircular se decora con cuatro columnas entregas que se rematan con capiteles; una imposta ajedrezada recorre horizontalmente el ábside. En el interior, la cabecera se separa de la nave por un arco de triunfo de medio punto que apoya en columnas y capiteles decorados. El ábside se divide en dos tramos, separados por otro arco de medio punto en dientes de sierra. Lo más significativo es la doble arquería que adorna toda la cabecera.

It has a wide porticoed gallery in front of the main entrance and on one side. (Original) Preciosa iglesia románica con portada gótica. Tiene unos bonitos capiteles en su interior, bien labrados. El templo posee un atractivo ábside románico. Tiene una amplia galería porticada delante de la entrada principal y en un lateral.

(Translated by Google) Well preserved church, the most representative thing is the apse, it has an added atrium that is very disrespectful to the building, but with a certain architectural value thanks to its circular geometry in the access area to the temple.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful old church built against the mountain ridge in Amandi near Villaviciosa. Unfortunately, it can only be viewed from the inside during services. The clocks strike the hours. Behind the church is the cemetery that is open from sunrise to sunset. There is a parking lot behind the cemetery (Original) Prachtige oud kerkje tegen de bergrug op gebouwd in Amandi bij Villaviciosa. Jammer genoeg alleen tijdens diensten van binnen te bezichtigen.

(Translated by Google) Church of San Xuan Bautista de Amandi (12th century), in Algara (Amandi, Villaviciosa, Asturies). Late Romanesque church built on a previous pre-Romanesque temple from the reign of Ordoño I of Asturies (850-866). In 1201, King Alfonso IX of Lleón (1188-1230) and his wife Doña Berenguela of Castile (1179-1246) donated this church of San Ioan de Maliayo to the Cistercian monastery of Santa María de Valdedios (Villaviciosa), founded in 1200. A ff. s. XIV comes to depend on the bishopric of Uviéu. Rectangular plan with a single nave and impressive semicircular apse; Main ogival doorway with 4 archivolts. Belfry and sacristy (S.). From 1796 is the semicircular portico, on Tuscan columns, which surrounds the S. and W. Cemetery behind.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent church in a symbolic location. The typical and spectacular façade features a rain-protected entrance for the conviviality of parishioners. Beautiful stonework and Romanesque design with proportions so fitting for the human, without being too grand, yet bringing humanity closer to the divine.

This beautiful theater in the village, appropriate for stage acts but somewhat limited for acoustic music given its design

(Translated by Google) I went to this theater to see an OCAS concert. The super entertaining program. The musicians of this non-professional orchestra are playing better and better. The theater is a "crack." Don't miss the top part. Don't miss the machinery of an antique clock displayed on the second floor. It is in the heart of Villaviciosa. (Original) Acudí a este teatro a ver un concierto de la OCAS. El programa super entretenido. Los músicos de.esta orquesta , no profesional, cada vez tocan mejor. El teatro es una " cocada". No os perdáis la parte de arriba. No os perdáis la maquinaria de un reloj antiguo expuesto en el segundo piso. Está en pleno centro de Villaviciosa.

(Translated by Google) A small theater, with a lot of charm and very cozy. We were lucky enough to see the representation of the passage of Carlos I and his sister through Villaviciosa in it for free. It's a shame that people aren't more considerate of the performance, the actors and the rest of the audience coming and going. (Original) Un teatro pequeño, con mucho encanto y muy acogedor. Tuvimos la suerte de ver la representación del paso de Carlos I y su hermana por Villaviciosa en él de forma gratuita.

(Translated by Google) Today, Sunday, June 18, they have the theater performance LA RATONERA scheduled at 7:00 p.m. Access to the play is free, and we are informed in the morning at the tourist office that the invitations are distributed an hour before, at 6 in the same theater. People arrive, they queue and NO one shows up here. It's 6:40 and people are standing and waiting in the street. almost an hour!!! What a lack of respect for the public! and what incompetence in the tourist office or in the theater itself, or in both places. note: in the end the doors opened at 6:45 and without invitation people entered the theater. They could have saved us a stupid 45 minute wait on the street! By the way, the play LA RATONERA was well performed and the work of the theater company was very correct. I congratulate you. (Original) hoy domingo 18 de junio tienen programada la función de teatro LA RATONERA a las 19.00. el acceso a la obra es gratuita, y nos informan por la mañana en la oficina de turismo que se reparten las invitaciones una hora antes, a las 6 en el mismo teatro. Va llegando gente, se hace cola y aquí NO aparece nadie. son las 6.40 y la gente de pie esperando en la calle. casi una hora!!! Que falta de respeto por el público! y que incompetencia en la oficina de turismo o en el propio teatro, o en ambos sitios. nota: al final abrieron las puertas a las 6.45 y sin invitación se accedió al teatro. Nos podian haber ahorrado una espera de 45 minutos a lo tonto en la calle! Por cierto la obra LA RATONERA bien representada y el trabajo de la compañía de teatro muy correcto. Les doy mi enhorabuena.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful theater in the historic center of Villaviciosa. In reduced condition, although its proportions and design do not detract from its attributes, both on the outside and on the inside. Today I haven't had the chance to see it inside, but I remember its beauty and charm. Protagonist of the social and artistic life of Villaviciosa since 1945, the theater, promoted by Laureano Riera, its builder and owner, was designed by the architect Fernando Cavanilles. A work of magnitude, the theater-cinema represented a novelty due to its size, architecture, large capacity and intense activity that survives, now as a municipal theater, to this day. On November 15, 1945, it was inaugurated by the José Alba theater company, which would be followed a few days later by its premiere as the Cinema Palace with the screening of The Tragedy of the Bounty (Frank Lloyd, Munity on the Bounty, 1935). ; with Charles Laughton and Clark Gable). In the central years of the 20th century, the theater reached great splendor, highlighting the work of Cándido Cambiella, linked to the Riera Theater from a very young age, first as a designer of its spectacular posters, then a designer, publicist and, ultimately, a great creator of its maintenance until its closure in 2002, when the change of ownership began until its reopening as a municipal theater in 2008. The Riera continues to be a reference venue for the cultural life of Villaviciosa, with an average of fifteen thousand spectators, combining cinema, theatre, concerts and institutional events, with more than a hundred activities a year, and a diverse program to which the rich associative fabric represented by the different local cultural groups and associations. (I downloaded the interior images from the Internet). (Original) Precioso teatro en el casco histórico de Villaviciosa. De reducidas condiciones, aunque sus proporciones y diseño no hacen deslucir sus atributos, tanto por fiera como por dentro. Hoy no he tenido ocasión de verlo por dentro, pero recuerdo su belleza y encanto. Protagonista de la vida social y artística de Villaviciosa desde 1945, el teatro, promovido por Laureano Riera, su constructor y propietario, fue proyectado por el arquitecto Fernando Cavanilles. Obra de envergadura, el teatro-cine representó una novedad por su tamaño, arquitectura, gran aforo e intensa actividad que pervive, ya como teatro municipal, en nuestros días. El 15 de noviembre de 1945 fue inaugurado por la compañía de teatro José Alba, a la que seguiría, pocos días después, su estreno como Palacio del Cine con la proyección de La tragedia de la Bounty (Frank Lloyd, Munity on the Bounty, 1935; con Charles Laughton y Clark Gable). En los años centrales del siglo XX, el teatro alcanza gran esplendor, siendo destacada la labor de Cándido Cambiella, vinculado al Teatro Riera desde muy joven, primero como dibujante de su espectacular cartelería, luego proyectista, publicista y, en definitiva, gran artífice de su mantenimiento hasta el cierre en 2002, cuando se inicia el cambio de propiedad hasta su reapertura como teatro municipal en 2008. El Riera sigue siendo sede de referencia de la vida cultural de Villaviciosa, con una media de quince mil espectadores, combinando cine, teatro, conciertos y actos institucionales,  con más de un centenar de actividades al año, y un programa diverso al que contribuye el rico tejido asociativo que representan las distintas agrupaciones y asociaciones culturales locales.

(Translated by Google) Villaviciosa Water Street. As it is well named, the Hevia were one of the most prestigious families in Villaviciosa. Perres, properties and prestige gave luster to this surname. The original house dates back to the 16th century, square floor plan, three storeys, central with a very handsome corridor, it maintains few original elements of the previous one, an interior stone staircase and a walnut partition on the top floor. It was completely renovated in the 19th century and then rehabilitated a few decades ago. Apart from the obvious, it is famous for the stay, four days of a young prince of Ghent (not even a Castilian pope), the route marked the destination of the port of Santander but things from the sea arrived on September 19, 1517 on the coast of Villaviciosa. They disembarked in Tazones and he was entertained in this house, logically, the best in the town, resting the rapacious and eventful trip. Afterwards, he headed towards Castile where things in life were concerned and with courage he claimed the inheritance of the Güelos, he arrived in Valladolid on November 18 with a premium entourage, with luck in his face he was able to propose and convince the Castilian nobility to unite kingdoms and become Charles I "the Caesar". Currently it is a multipurpose center of the town hall, serving residents and visitors. It is very worth passing through. (Original) Calle del Agua Villaviciosa.

Desembarcaron en Tazones y fué agasajado en esta casa, lógico, la mejor de la villa reposando el rapaz tan azaroso viaje. Después ya tiró hacia Castilla donde cosas de la vida y echàndole valor reclamó la herencia de los Güelos, llegó a Valladolid el 18 de Noviembre con una comitiva premium, con la suerte de cara supo proponerse y convencer a la nobleza Castellana para unir reinos y convertirse en Carlos I "el César".

(Translated by Google) 🪄I loved it! It's a super cool park! I highly recommend it! It is a fairly large park, inside it is made up of three parks, each one with a different theme. It is for little children and older ones. A place that looks super clean, pleasant, full of vitality. Ideal to spend the afternoons. There were a lot of people after 4pm. I didn't see any picnic areas. You can go with dogs, or so I assume, because there were people walking around. I don't know if there are toilets or not. A place for the whole family. ☺️ (Original) 🪄Me ha encantado! Es un parque super genial! Lo recomiendo al mil! Es un parque bastante grande, dentro se conforma por tres parques, cada uno con una temática diferente. Es para niños pequeñitos y otros más grandecitos. Un sitio que se ve súper limpio, agradable, lleno de vitalidad. Ideal para pasar las tardes. Había muchísima gente después de las 4pm. No vi ninguna zona para picnic. Se puede ir con perros, o eso supongo, porque había gente paseando por ahí. Desconozco que haya aseos o no. Un sitio para toda la familia. ☺️

A thoroughly enjoyable meal. Good job Mery and company! The menú del día was delicious!

The best restaurant in town. I had lunch here and came back for dinner. Great food and atmosphere.

The service was good and fast. Only comment based on my experience: We ordered two menu de día for €11 each which is super cheap. For the 1st course, fabadas was salty and the rice I wouldn’t pay for €1, for the second ones ribs were so dry and Plato de abuela was not good neither. For dessert we ordered two cheese cakes which were bad. It’s the first time we experienced this when everything we ordered didn’t taste good. For €11 we should have expected anything but the other dishes looked not too bad apart from menu de día which we didn’t try.

Very delicious and quality and very good service. I will come back.

What a find! Tired from travelling we stumbled across Casa Mary with its buzzing atmosphere inside, local ride being poured from above head high was fun to watch. Although theybdidntnhave space inside, it was rammed! They found us a table under cover outside and we feasted on the food we ordered. Great place, friendly staff. Thank you

We took the daily menue and we were not really impressed about the restaurant because the quality of food was not very good. I also noticed a bad smell when we were entering the restaurant. The price was cheap.

The food was average, for the price it was ok. The service was very slow. We were waiting forever to get the food.

This little restaurant was a hidden gem. We popped in fir the menu del dia were blown away by the unique dishes and the presentation. Accompanies with a great wine choice. Best meal we have had on our vacation in Spain!

Exceptional food, great quality in raw materials, good wine! It was possible the food in Asturias so far!!

This is an excellent place. We loved the variety of dishes. We both had the wok of chipirones with noodles and vegetables and it was very tasty. The place was very busy at lunch but we had great service. I highly recommend this gastrobar.

Fabulous, tasty, different food. Presentation good. Service friendly and efficient. Plenty of time between dishes arriving at the table. Best meal in Villaviciosa

Wonderful little gastrobar. The quality of the food was excellent and the service was fantastic - the staff were really friendly but very professional. The main dishes we had were very good and the homemade desserts even better. Highly recommended.

You can feel the energy of “ I just don’t want to work “ when we approached the door . And Obviously since the kitchen closes at 00h “you just can’t come without reservation” even though the bar is half empty, Excuses. Not even in New York . And you can see them laughing at the kitchen but they just can’t work .

Sublime dining experience. A must-visit if you like food 👌

Looks like it is the best burger in Asturias that I've tried. I highly recommend to try their premium burger with black angus, sweet part and cheese, it is delicious.

This was everything I needed. I am huge smash burger fan at home in the US and the smash burger tasted like home. So so good. The bacon cheese fries and nachos were also delicious. My husband is GF and the owner was very kind to make his bun-free burger and double check the ingredients in everything we ordered. 10/10 recommend!!

Amazing place to have a meal after a long walk on the camino! Burgers gave me a comfy reminder of home while still providing an authentic Spanish experience. The servers were very friendly and also spoke incredible english! He even helped me learn a little Spanish! Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a bite to eat.

Very nice place with just the right selection of burgers, hot dogs and side orders, even with real coleslaw as garnish. Just 3 desserts but very tasty too. Attentive and fast service. Kid friendly and very central. We'll be back for sure.

Incredible service, the bartender chilled our beer glasses by hand for us. The burgers are amazing diner style patties, I had the cheddar burger and the fries with the trio of sauces and felt like I was home in Chicago.

As a native New Yorker I was happy to find this place on a night when I was really hungry and wanted a taste of home. Burger was great, the beef patty the owner uses is much better quality than what I have found in other hamburguesarias in Spain, and cooked just right! Staff was friendly and made me right at home, 3000 miles from home.

Best burger I've ever had! Really friendly staff, speaks English, nice american atmosphere, nice location especially for international pilgrims as it's just next to the albergue. Would definitely come back!

Petfriendly 😍

(Translated by Google) I loved it, both the exquisite food and the covered patio and the service. I give it a 10 because it is one of those places that you can't give a but.

(Translated by Google) Set menu for 13.90. First course, second course, and dessert with a drink. My husband ordered Riojan potatoes for first course, and I ordered tuna-stuffed peppers (they served me four), and for second course, we ordered the two cachopines, which come with fries and a bit of salad. And then dessert: yogurt, ice cream, or chocolate cake. The waiter waited on us to clear our plates and bring us our main courses. We'd definitely come back. (Original) Menú del día por 13,90. Primero, segundo, postre con bebida. Mi marido de primero ha pedido patatas riojanas y yo pimientos rellenos de atún ( me han puesto cuatro ) y de segundo hemos pedido los dos cachopines, vienen acompañados con patatas fritas y un poquito de ensalada. Y ya el postre yogur, helado o tarta de chocolate. El camarero pendiente de nosotros para retirarnos el plato y traernos los segundos. Repetiríamos seguro

(Translated by Google) We went to eat on the recommendation of people from Villaviciosa, what can I say, the praise falls short, to start we ordered 2 menus of the day and a matured beef entrecôte. The first dish on the menu, potes (I think it was called) was capable of leaving you with your mouth open, it was incredible and not to mention the amount they gave you, spectacular. To continue the second menu we ordered bonito and roast beef, the beef melted in the mouth and had a flavor that left you longing for more, not to mention the bonito, which is brought to you done and prepared to bite your teeth. And lastly for the main dishes we have the entrecôte, in my opinion the best I have ever tried, they bring it to the point you like and in my case, which was sealed, it had a spectacular flavor, one of those that you remember and drool over. . And the jewel in the crown, the homemade nougat cake, with pieces of nougat for more flavor, creamy and wonderful texture. Of the staff, what to say, we had Dani, very close and attentive to everything, he didn't miss a thing. In conclusion, we feel at home, and we are looking forward to returning. (Original) Fuimos a comer por recomendación de gente de villaviciosa, que decir, los elogios se quedan cortos, para comenzar pedimos 2 menús del día y un entrecot de vaca madurada. El primer plato del menú, potes (creo que se llamaba) era capaz de dejarte con la boca abierta, estaba increíble y por no hablar de la cantidad que te ponían, espectacular. Para continuar el menú de segundo pedimos bonito y ternera asada, la ternera se deshacía en la boca y tenía un sabor que te dejaba anhelando más, por no hablar del bonito, que te lo traen hecho y preparado para incar el diente. Y por último de platos principales tenemos el entrecot, para mi gusto de lo mejor que he probado, te lo traen al punto que gustes y en mi caso, que era sellado, tenía un sabor espectacular de esos que recuerdas y se te cae la baba. Y la joya de la corona, la tarta de turrón casera, con tropezones de turrón para más sabor, textura cremosa y maravillosa. Del personal, que decir, nos tocó a Dani, muy cercano y atento a todo, no se le escapa ninguna. En conclusión nos sentimos como en casa, y nos vamos deseando volver.

(Translated by Google) Menu of the day at 13.5. We ate on the interior terrace.

Comimos en la terraza interior. Típico sitio donde se come aceptablemente bien, el sitio..bueno, pues si no te fijas mucho en como está, pues bien. Amables, desde luego.

9th century church hidden away in the hills and valleys near Gijon. Peaceful

Interesting visit to the monastery. Entrance included an audio guide

Interesting to visit! Well preserved and comes with a ton of information.

You probably won't find many older churches than this one. Especially that are still standing! Very impressive.

Pre-romanesque church and medieval monastery. Must visit in Asturias

Extremely interesting edifice dating back 1200 years. Access is with guide only, tours of this and the other buildings on the site were commencing on the hour when we visited in May 2022. Car parking area outside the monastery site, fairly accessible but not ideal for those dependent entirely on wheelchairs, the site is quite flat with only a few steps so those with reduced mobility should be ok

Pre Romanesque Church of «San Salvador de Valdediós». Consecrated in the year 893. Reign of «Alfonso Ill». Inside, there are pre-romanesque wall paintings.

(Translated by Google) Sculpture set from 1932, located in front of the Riera theater, the work of the sculptor Mariano Benlliure and representing a woman with a basket of apples, the fruit from which cider is obtained and for which Villaviciosa is known.

(Translated by Google) It's a shame what the place has lost. It's gone from a classic restaurant where you always had to reserve a table to having three tables available on the terrace on a Saturday in June with good weather. The service was simply poor and slow. 24 minutes to clear the table and serve six drinks, even though there were only three tables occupied... (Original) Una pena lo que ha perdido el sitio. Ha pasado de un clásico donde había q reservar siempre a estar libre 3 mesas en la terraza un sábado de junio con buen tiempo. El servicio simplemente malo y lento. 24 minutos de reloj para limpiar la mesa y servir 6 consumiciones teniendo solo 3 mesas ocupadas...

(Translated by Google) Correct food although at a somewhat high price. Poor service. Slow and not very pleasant. They spilled some wine on me and instead of receiving an apology, I received a "with a little milk it goes away." The waitress then became interested in cleaning the stain for me. I just wanted to finish dinner and leave, a shame. (Original) Comida correcta aunque a un precio un tanto elevado. Servicio poco adecuado. Lento y poco agradable. Me tiraron un poco de vino encima y en lugar de recibir una disculpa, recibí un "con un poco de leche se va". La camarera luego puso interés en limpiarme la mancha. Solo tenía ganas de acabar la cena y marcharme, una pena.

Nice,calming view and such an incredible dishes.We loved everything what we ate.So lovely people are working and they are so helpful l.We enjoyed every moment being there.Food was so tasty and big portion good price.If we had a time we would definitely go one more time.But we sure we will come back again.Thanks for everything.

Really traditional, and each time harder to find, “chigre”. Homemade food, everything perfectly cook. We tried squids and onions stew (excellent and quite different), cecina 🙏🏻, and lamb stew which is in a league of his own. Very friendly people too. I’d be coming back for sure

Incredibly warm welcome. Amazing authentic Asturias food, ridiculously big portions.

(Translated by Google) Arriving and seeing a table occupied already scared us. The ventrisca salad consisted of tomato slices made of tissue paper, as seen in the photo, and the ventrisca was crumbled. €12 The croquettes are visible on the plate (we took close-ups to make it look like there was something there, because you could see more of the plate than anything else). The size was bite-sized, 8 croquettes. €12 The cheek pouches were exactly as shown in the photo. €12 The main course was €24 and a half portion of oxtail, which you can see the side dish like a magnifying glass. There was no wine. Chlorinated water, 2 soft drinks, 1 bottle of cider. A portion of bread to keep our stomachs happy was almost €6. And to top it all off, they charged us for two portions of oxtail when they said one and a half. It was 7 pieces of oxtail, with such an abundance of garnish that we were shocked... because it didn't even reach half a potato. 4 desserts and a bill of €121... We were amazed. The desserts were €6, when We're at the end of the earth, and those desserts are €4. We're not in the center of Oviedo or Gijón. A set of dishes with each dish from a different family. The best thing was the staff, who was very friendly. The owner didn't say good afternoon when we walked in; she oozed politeness from every pore. Bye, bye... (Original) Llegar y ver una mesa ocupada, ya nos asustó. La ensalada de ventrisca eran láminas de tomate de papel de fumar como se ve en la foto y la ventrisca desmigada. 12€ Las croquetas se ven en el plato, (hicimos primeros planos para que pareciera q había algo, porque se veía más plato q otra cosa. El Tamaño eran de bocado, 8 croquetas. 12€ Los saquitos de carrilleras tal cual en la foto.12€ El plato principal fue ración 24 € y media 12€ de rabo de toro, q se ve el acompañamiento cm lupa no hubo vino. Agua clorada, 2 refrescos, 1 botella de sidra. Ración de pan para llevar el estómago a casi 6 euros. Y ya para colmo nos cobraron 2 raciones de rabo de toro cuando pusieron ración y media .q fueron 7 trozos de rabo, con una abundancia de guarnición q quedamos asustados…porque no llego ni a media patata . 4 Postres y una factura de 121€… Quedamos alucinados. Los postres a 6 €, cuando estamos en el culo del mundo y esos postres son de 4€. Q no estamos en el centro de Oviedo ni Gijón. Una vajilla con cada plato de un padre diferente . Lo mejor la empleada q era muy amable. La dueña no dio las buenas tardes cuando saludamos al Entrar , rezumaba educación por todos los poros. Bye, bye …

(Translated by Google) In this charming little town, we found a restaurant that pleasantly surprised us. The fabada (bean stew) was simply delicious, with that homemade, authentic flavor that can only be achieved with patience and a good hand in the kitchen. The cider, served with care, was the perfect accompaniment. We also tried the salad, cachopo (a type of cachopo), and anchovies, all prepared with great care. The service was another strong point: the owner welcomed us with special kindness, making us feel at home, and the rest of the staff was equally attentive and cordial throughout the meal. A place that combines good food, friendly service, and the charm of small-town life. Definitely a place to return to and recommend. (Original) En este pequeño y encantador pueblecito encontramos un restaurante que nos sorprendió gratamente. La fabada estaba sencillamente deliciosa, con ese sabor casero y auténtico que solo se consigue con paciencia y buena mano en la cocina. La sidra, servida con mimo, resultó el acompañamiento perfecto. También probamos la ensalada , cachopo y los boquerones, preparados con mucho cuidado. La atención fue otro punto fuerte: la dueña nos recibió con una amabilidad especial, haciéndonos sentir como en casa, y el resto del equipo fue igualmente atento y cordial durante toda la comida. Un lugar que combina buena comida, trato cercano y el encanto de la vida en un pueblo pequeño. Sin duda, un sitio para repetir y recomendar.

(Translated by Google) A typical village tavern, home-cooked food and quick service. Don't expect anything fancy, but there is a varied menu. The desserts seemed a bit fair for the price... very tasty, but size S. The rice with Caleya pitu, which is famous there, was very good (a bit hard for my taste). The other dishes, of course! 👌👌👌👌 (Original) Chigre de pueblo de los de tida la vida, comida casera, y atencion rapida, no vayas esperando lujos, pero hay una carta variada , los postres me parecieron un poco justos para el precio… muy ricos, eso si, pero tamaño S, el arroz con pitu de Caleya que es famoso allí, estaba muy bueno ( pelín duro para mi gusto) los demás platos of course !!👌👌👌👌

(Translated by Google) A place with delicious homemade food. And excellent service. If we return to Asturias, we will. 😍 (Original) Un sitio con comida casera riquísima. Y un trato excelente. Si volvemos a Asturias , volveremos.😍
