Báltico está a pocos pasos de la Escalerona. Tiene mesas dentro, y también una terraza ideal para estos días de calor. La chica que atiende es super agradable y muy profesional. El café que pedí estaba muy bueno. Para la próxima pediré algo de bollería, o un pincho, que todo se veía muy rico.

Muy buen lugar para desayunar. La dueña una mujer muy agradable y un servicio estupendo. Un dato muy destacable es que el domingo estuvimos buscando un bar abierto y este era el único. Además, el precio muy bueno. Un diez.
