Set in my favourite barrio in Madrid, this place does the best churros I've had in Spain (having sampled the typical favourites, such as Valor); the churros are light enough that you can devour the whole plate and not feel like you need a nap afterwards, and the staff there are always lovely.
the food & drink ★★★★
You can get your churros and porras, your chocolate accompaniment; they do a good selection of coffees and teas, and there's also a nice small selection of pastries, toast, and waffles if you're not in the mood for churros.
the atmosphere ★★★★
This place is so small that you can count the number of tables on one hand. That being said, I've always been able to get a table there, as most people that come in just take advantage of the takeaway service. They're really pushing the real traditional food feel here with street light style lamps and black and white photos on the walls, but it does give it a cute feel. It's very clean, has a window into the kitchen area, and the staff are always friendly and smiley.
price point €
With churros and chocolate costing €2.95 and a coffee costing less than €2, you really can't complain.
