1 History
About 1939 or 1940 Antonio Rodilla opened a
confectionery shop in Callao, the very heart of the city.[2]
After some years he decided to sell a new line of products,
cold meat (ambre) sandwiches. Since it was dicult at
the time to nd a good bread supplier he decided to make
his own bread as well, called English bread, or pan de
molde (as opposed to the more traditional baguette-like
bread).
In the early 70s Rodilla opened two new establishments
in Princesa and Orense streets, and in 1992 a new rm
was created (Artesana de la Alimentacin) to central-
ize the production of their own raw materials.[3]
2 Expansion
Between 1993 and 1995 ve new establishments were
opened, and today it has a total of 72 restaurants; 63 in
Madrid, 5 in Valencia, 2 in Barcelona, 2 in Sevilla, 1 in
Toledo and 1 in Segovia.
3 Products
Apart from both cold and warm sandwiches, Rodilla of-
fers lled croissants, salads, pastries and fried dishes to
eat in the shop or to take away.
