Tips for Family

Draft Vermouth

In the most traditional bars of La Latina or Lavapiés, ask for a 'tap vermouth'. It's a very Madrilenian tradition for weekend aperitifs.

Rooftops for Everyone

Besides Círculo de Bellas Artes, explore other rooftops like RIU Plaza España (with glass walkway), Picalagartos, or Casa de Sweden for views and cocktails.

Late Meal Times

Lunch is between 2:00-4:00 PM. Dinner usually doesn't start before 9:00 or 10:00 PM.

The Desktop

It's the custom of staying to chat at the table long after finishing eating. Don't rush, it's part of the social experience.

Drink Tap Water

Madrid's tap water is of excellent quality and taste, considered one of the best in Spain. Fill your bottle without hesitation.

24h Pharmacies

Identified by a green cross. There are always 'pharmacies on duty' open 24 hours in each area. Staff can offer advice for minor reliefs.

Beware of Pickpockets

The main risk is theft. Pay special attention on the Metro, Puerta del Sol, Gran Vía, and El Rastro.

Backpack and Bag in Front

In crowds, always keep your belongings in sight. Never leave your phone or wallet on the table at terraces.
