Sumándose a La Palma de Escobedo, Alborada y Urdesa, también está La Palma de La Joya, al frente de la etapa Quarzo. Los dulces y los bocados de sal son tan buenos como en cualquiera de las otras sucursales. La atención es buena y acaso el único punto bajo es la espera a ciertas horas porque sus productos se terminan rápido. También es algo bueno porque eso indica que el producto es de calidad.

Fui con mi esposa. Un poquito demorada la atención. Siempre pasa full a la hora del desayuno. Sin embargo, todo muy bueno. Mismo sabor de siempre.
