Barely changed since 1860 and the birthplace of the Spanish Socialist Party in 1879, this tiled tavern beside Sol serves the city's most famous fried bacalao and cod croquetas across a standing bar and a small back dining room. You queue, order tajadas at the counter and drink a caña amid pure old-Madrid texture. A genuine institution holding its ground in the most tourist-dense zone.
