Documented as a wine business before February 1787 and Madrid's oldest tavern, with décor intact: gas lamps, the cellar bottle lift and walls painted with old bullfighters, once a gathering place for Baroja, Sorolla and Marañón. It still serves torrijas, rabo de toro and classic taberna fare in rooms thick with history. A living museum of castizo Madrid in the heart of Lavapiés.
