    Overview

    In Chamberí, one of Madrid’s most traditional neighborhoods, the city’s castizo spirit comes alive through food. In Madrid, castizo describes what feels truly local: lively taverns, bustling markets, aperitif rituals, and the everyday dishes Madrileños return to again and again. On this walk through historic cafés, specialty shops, and market stalls, we’ll taste the flavors that define the capital. From churros and chocolate to olive oil, honey, seafood, and classic tapas, we’ll discover the foods and traditions that give Madrid its unmistakable character.

      New generation Churreria, the traditional castizo renewed.

      It is one of the best churrerias of Madrid.

      Churros are a product of Arab influence: we serve to tell the foundation of Madrid by the Arabs: Madrid was founded as an Andalusian fortress, known as Mayrit, on the banks of the Manzanares River by Emir Muhammad I around the year 865.

      And its evolution and consecration as a capital through the monarchy and its influence: products like chocolate, a colonial product par excellence, and a symbol of class until the 19th century when it became popular

      Owned by a famous family loved by locals, who were in the past “The TV Clowns”.
