This guide contains my 120 top restaurant recommendations in Madrid and commentary about how to eat like a Spaniard. I cover all types of eateries (tapas bars, restaurants, etc) plus give you the lowdown on Spanish eating customers (so you can eat like a local). Use this guide to ensure you never have a bad meal while exploring the Spanish capital! The 120 included restaurant recommendations cover the whole city and a variety of price points. Note that this does not cover coffee shops, dessert spots, or purely drinking establishments. But it gives you the best places for lunch and dinner in this incredible city!

Off the Beaten-Path Madrid, Where Locals Actually Go. If you are like me, you hate to pack your days traveling from one tourist hotspot to the next 'must-see' landmark. Take a break from the usual guides and lists of what you 'should' see in Madrid and allow yourself to experience Madrid for all its charm through its food, shops, drinks, and unique culture. I find it fascinating that Madrid does not have an Eiffel Tower, or a Coliseum, yet millions are drawn (& some stay like me) to its indescribable aura that you need to see for yourself.

From Madrid to Ribera and Rioja, Spain at large, Europe, and beyond, natural wine is having a renaissance for its ecologically conscious, out-of-the-box, and passionate makers and enjoyers. Here are some cafes, bars, and bottle shops to visit in Madrid, whether for a cool date night, socializing in your neighborhood, or just a quick drink. Salud & chin chin 🍷✨🥂
