About Olinda bar
Olinda is a pocket-sized Brazilian bar on Calle San Lorenzo that has become Burgos's unofficial mojito and caipirinha headquarters. Over 25 years, the owner—variously called Josette, Olinda, or simply "the lady behind the bar"—has perfected a craft that draws repeat visitors, pilgrims on the Camino, and locals who treat it as a mandatory stop. The bar's signature strength lies in its cocktails: mojitos and caipirinhas made to order with visible care, customizable spirit strength, and flavour variety (strawberry, passion fruit, and others). The space is deliberately narrow and intimate, with low ceilings and Brazilian-inflected decor that creates a cosy, informal atmosphere. Service is characterised by genuine warmth and humour—reviewers consistently praise the owner's ability to make guests feel at home. At €3.90 per mojito, pricing is unbeatable for the quality and attention delivered. Dogs are welcome, and the bar attracts groups, solo drinkers, and international travellers alike.

Reviewers consistently praise the owner (Josette/Olinda) for her charm, friendliness, and ability to make guests feel at home; described as 'exceptionally sympathetic,' 'super amable,' and 'always smiling.'
Unbeatable value
Mojitos priced at €3.90; reviewers highlight 'precio inmejorable' (unbeatable price) for the quality and care delivered.
