Wood-fired roasts and a €25 weekend menu at the campsite on the Plasencia road, at the park's northern entrance. Closed on Wednesdays.

The Camping Monfragüe restaurant is a wood-fired-oven roast house in the middle of the dehesa, on the EX-208 road from Plasencia to Trujillo, 9 km from Plasencia and about ten minutes from the National Park's northern entrance. It is run by the Barrado family, from Malpartida de Plasencia, who opened the campsite in 1998, when Monfragüe was still a natural park. It feeds the campers and also works for outside events: company lunches, communions and christenings.
The wood oven: suckling pig, tostón and kid
The house presents itself as a specialist in wood-fired-oven roasts. The most requested dish, according to the house, is roast suckling pig (cochinillo or tostón), served with roast potatoes dressed with extra virgin olive oil, coarse salt and La Vera paprika. From the same oven come the leg and shoulder of kid. The rest of the menu draws on meat from livestock raised in the surrounding dehesas: veal, kid or lamb caldereta (stew), Iberian lamb chops, secreto and sirloin. There is game, such as rabbit or stewed venison, acorn-fed Iberian cured meats, Torta del Casar, sheep's cheese and roast peppers, and a broad wine list.
€14 menu on weekdays, €25 at weekends
The menu of the day costs €14 from Monday to Friday. On Saturdays, Sundays, long weekends and public holidays the menu goes up to €25. If you are going for the suckling pig on a busy day, call beforehand to order it.
Dining room with a fireplace and a terrace with fans
The dining room is air-conditioned and in winter it is warmed by a large cast-iron fireplace. The café has a wide terrace with ceiling fans, which serves for breakfast in summer or a spring afternoon, with wifi and a television for watching football or Formula 1. In the social lounge, also with a fireplace, there are combination plates, raciones and sandwiches for anyone who does not want a full menu. Throughout the rooms hangs an exhibition of photographs of the park's wildlife and landscape. For groups celebrating something, the house can reserve a private room.
Hours: lunches, not dinners
Since 5 January 2026 it has opened every day from 8:00 to 17:00, except Wednesdays, when it closes for a rest day. It is therefore a place for breakfast and lunch: for dinner nearby, look at El Paraíso de los Sentidos, in Torrejón el Rubio. The restaurant has its own telephone, 927 459 220; the campsite reception answers on 927 459 233 and on WhatsApp on 605 940 878.
On the way back to Plasencia and the A-66
It is on the way to Plasencia and the A-66, so it fits for lunch as you leave the park by the north, after a morning of viewpoints or the guided 4x4 route. The plan Sunday in Monfragüe: a guided 4x4 and a dehesa barbecue ends here. If you are staying at the campsite, it is within walking distance.

Qué pedir: the wood-fired roast suckling pig with potatoes and La Vera paprika, or the shoulder of kid; to start, Torta del Casar
