Family eating house on the Plaza Mayor, opposite the Azogue church, with habones, boletus and Sanabrian beef chuletón.

La Posada is a family eating house at number 3 on the Plaza Mayor of Puebla de Sanabria, a few metres from the castle, next to the town hall and opposite the church of Nuestra Señora del Azogue. It was opened in 2003 by a local family, in a large house restored by Sanabrian craftsmen, and you recognise it from the square by its balconies full of flowers. It serves meals on two floors, with no terrace.
The Sanabria menu
The cooking is the Sanabrian classic. To start, a board of Iberian pork loin (€11), pisto of organic vegetables from Los Valles (€9), braised ham with roasted peppers (€12), cecina de León (€15) or Sanabrian-style octopus (€25), as well as scrambled eggs with black pudding, raisins and pine nuts or with boletus and prawns, and boards of Zamora cheeses and cured meats. Grilled Sanabria boletus are served subject to availability and the day's price. For a first course, the habones, the large beans of the region, and for a main, the Sanabrian beef chuletón, with home-made desserts. The village bread, made with Zamora flour, is charged at €1 a portion.
The wine list is wide and leans towards the Toro D.O. There are dishes for coeliacs and vegans and the menu shows the allergens; if you have any intolerance, say so when ordering.
Two sittings and ten minutes' grace
Lunches run from 13:15 to 15:30 in two sittings: from 13:15 to 15:00 and from 15:15 until closing. Dinners, from 20:30 to 22:30, can only be booked for 20:30, 20:45, 21:00 or 21:15. The table is held for ten minutes, not extendable: after that time, it is released. You cannot choose the floor.
It is closed on Wednesdays and on 24, 25 and 31 December and 1 January.
With a dog
If you come with a dog, you are seated on the ground floor and only if there is room: say so when booking.
Parking on the square
You can leave the car on the Plaza Mayor, except from Maundy Thursday to Easter Sunday, on weekends from Easter Week to 30 June and every day from 1 July to 30 September. On those dates, park below and walk up.
Before or after
The square is the centre of the old town of Puebla, and the castle is a few steps away. In the morning, the lake is about 12 km away: you can do the lake and monks trail and come down for lunch at the second sitting.

Qué pedir: habones to start and the Sanabrian beef chuletón to share.
