While prices rise across Spain, this bar still charges just €1.50 for a coffee

While the cost of living rises across Spain, one small village bar is keeping its prices low. Rincón de Rubo in Villanueva de Duero offers coffee for €1.50 and a caña for €1.60, despite Spain's annual inflation rate of 3.6 percent in July. Owner Rubén Carpintero Rico has deliberately kept the prices low, aiming to make the bar accessible to villagers on tight budgets.

Rubén, who has over 13 years in the hospitality industry, says running the bar involves dealing with suppliers, employees, rent, taxes, and other costs, prompting him to maintain affordable prices.
