Las Tenerías Restaurant

Las Tenerías is a restaurant with a café in the village of Jerte, on calle del Puente, opposite the hermitage of the Cristo del Amparo and a few metres from the river's natural pool. It is a village house, with no website of its own, serving the valley's typical cooking with a set menu and an à la carte menu. The Repsol Guide lists it among its roadside Soletes, at under €35, and places it on the final stretch of the valley, a step from the N-110, on the way to Ávila.

Opposite the Cristo del Amparo

The 18th-century hermitage of the Cristo del Amparo, in rubble masonry with ashlar corners, is the landmark for finding it. Next to it is the river, with the natural pool and El Nogalón park, from where the path to Los Pilones also leaves from the village. Las Tenerías is therefore in the part of the village where people swim and stroll beside the river.

Suckling pig and stuffed lamb

The tourist office describes its cooking as typical of the Jerte Valley, with set menus. The Repsol Guide highlights two dishes: the boned, confit suckling pig and the lamb stuffed with spring garlic, mushrooms and shallots, and it lists it as a restaurant with a set menu of the day and Extremaduran cooking. There is no published menu with prices: the set menu of the day and whatever is on that day will be told to you at the table or by phone.

Terrace, high chairs and nearby parking

It has a traditional café, a dining room decorated in the local architectural style, a private room and a terrace with views over the valley. The official listing adds that it is air-conditioned, has wifi, high chairs for children, a menu in other languages and a parking area, that it is wheelchair accessible and that it accepts groups. Animals are not allowed.

It is a place to eat without ceremony, as a family or after a swim. For those coming from the Los Pilones trail or the Los Hoyos canyon, it is in the same village.

Two phone numbers and no opening hours

It does not publish opening hours anywhere we have been able to check. The tourist office gives 618 673 031 and the Repsol Guide 927 173 662; try both. Neither source says whether tables can be booked: ask when you call and, if not, arrive early on the busiest days. The address given by the office is calle del Puente, 5; the Repsol Guide, which calls it La Tenería, puts it at number 7.

If you are looking for something more formal in the same village, Flor del Cerezo, the hospedería's restaurant, is on calle Ramón Cepeda and publishes its hours.
