Reviewers praise Barra de Pickles for its standout flan, calling it a silky, perfectly balanced dessert. The overall vibe is warm and welcoming, with a focus on simple yet elevated comfort food.
“It's beautifully custardy. I don't like flan when it feels grainy in your mouth — it should melt. Obviously with a mountain of dulce de leche on top, which never hurts.”

Pickle Tasting
I really love the pickle part — it brings that nice acidity. The pickled cherry tomatoes are really interesting, I'd never had them before. I finished them.
Sandwich en Marraqueta con Roast Beef
My sandwich has roast beef. The bread is soft. I love it when I'm put in a tough spot by hard-to-bite sandwiches. It's four inches tall. I had completely underestimated the crunchiness of these mustard seeds. The bread is called marraqueta — it's a typical Chilean bread, slightly oval with a cross on top. So good. If this city only serves sandwiches like this, I'm never leaving.
Sandwich en Marraqueta con Jamón Ahumado
Franci's has smoked ham, mantecoso cheese, pickled gherkins, mayo and hot sauce. It's not spicy. I obviously really love the pickle part which brings that nice acidity. The bread is soft.
Flan
It's beautifully custardy. I don't like flan when it feels grainy in your mouth — it should melt. Obviously with a mountain of dulce de leche on top, which never hurts.
