Restaurant at the foot of the Plataforma road in Hoyos del Espino, with a traditional menu and Ávila beef at lunchtime and stone-oven pizzas in the afternoon.

La Galana is at kilometre 0.2 of the Plataforma road, on the way out of Hoyos del Espino, just where the climb to the Laguna Grande car park begins. It is a restaurant with two menus depending on the time: traditional cooking with Ávila beef at midday and stone-oven pizzas in the afternoon, with local and seasonal produce. Given where it is, it is on the way when you come down from the sierra.
Two dining rooms and a terrace
It has two dining rooms; one of them is glazed and opens onto a terrace that in summer is the nicest part of the house. The water served is filtered, in glass bottles with the house logo, which you can take away for €15.
At midday: revolconas and Gredos beef
From 13:30 to 17:30 the traditional menu is served. Among the starters, zero-kilometre patatas revolconas (€10.80), Barco beans (€14.50), shepherd's migas with Iberian bacon and egg (€13.80), scrambled black pudding with apple and pine nuts (€12.50), Monte Enebro cheese millefeuille (€15.90) or an assortment of croquettes, including vegan boletus ones. For mains, Gredos veal chuletón by weight (€4.50 per 100 g), veal tenderloin (€25), pork ribs slow-cooked for twelve hours and barbecued (€15.80), Iberian pork tenderloin (€16.50), gratinated cod (€18.50) or lentil meatballs with carrot sauce (€12.90).
The €35 tasting menu includes a tasting of revolconas with torreznos and Vera migas, a main to choose, dessert, bread, water and coffee; it is per person and not shared.
In the afternoon: Neapolitan pizzas
From 17:30 to 22:00 the kitchen switches to Neapolitan-style pizzas, with dough fermented for at least 24 hours, made in a stone oven with cheeses from La Vera, boletus and oregano from Candeleda: black pudding with egg and onion (€12.50), roast rib (€13), boletus (€14) or Iberian ham (€15). There are also salads, croquettes, revolconas and chuletón. Pizzas, sandwiches and burgers are prepared to take away until 22:30.
Winter hours
In winter it opens Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with some special dates announced on its website. Book on the website or on 920 349 179.
