Hotel restaurant with more than 60 years in Aguilar de Campoo, known for its roast Castilian lechazo, with large dining rooms and a café open from 7:30.

El Valentín is the restaurant of the hotel of the same name, on avenida de Ronda, about three hundred metres from Aguilar's Plaza de España. The house has been open for more than sixty years and in practice has two doors: the dining room, with its menu and large function rooms, and the café, which opens from 7:30 for breakfasts and simple meals. Turismo de Castilla y León lists it as a two-fork restaurant.
The lechazo, above all
The dish the house presents itself with is roast Castilian lechazo (milk-fed lamb). The rest of the menu is extensive, Castilian cooking, accompanied by a wine list from several denominations. The website does not publish the menu with prices; the level is mid-range for the region. If you are going for lechazo on a Sunday, call beforehand and ask whether you should order it in advance.
Dining room and café, two paces
The dining room's halls can hold group meals, banquets, communions and company lunches, so at weekends and on celebration dates the dining room fills up: book.
The café is the quick option. It serves combination plates, burgers, sandwiches, pan dishes and raciones, and on Friday and Saturday evenings it sets up an area for informal dinners. It works well if you have spent the day among the Romanesque and don't want a long dinner.
Kitchen hours and takeaway
The website does not give the dining room's hours, but it does give those for takeaway orders, which come out of the same kitchen: the restaurant menu, Monday to Saturday from 13:00 to 15:30 and Monday to Thursday from 21:00 to 22:30; the café's, Friday and Saturday from 21:00 to 22:30. Orders are placed by phone, on 979 12 21 25. To eat in the dining room on Sunday or dine there at the weekend, confirm by phone which service is available.
What to see before or after
From the door you can walk to the Plaza de España, the collegiate church and the climb to the castle, and by car, in two minutes, to the monastery of Santa María la Real. If you sleep in Aguilar, the Hotel Valentín is in the same building.

Qué pedir: the roast lechazo, the house speciality.
