Where to eat in Madrid

Bodegas, working markets, ethnic cuisine, vermuterías

· Updated:

The real Madrid eats in century-old bodegas, bypassing the touristy Mercado de San Miguel. Bodega de la Ardosa (1892) serves tortilla, vermouth from the barrel, and Spain's oldest Guinness tap. Casa Labra (1860) fries bacalao croquettes on the spot where the PSOE was founded in 1879; Taberna Antonio Sánchez (1787) is the city's oldest tavern outright; the Yayo cocktail was invented at the four tables of Casa Camacho (1928). Beyond the center, diaspora cooking takes over — the Cantonese Royal Cantonés in Usera, where 90% of the diners are locals. Prices run from Michelin stars to a couple euros for vermouth. Lunch here happens by 14:00, dinner not before 21:00; where you need a reservation, book it through TheFork.
