Conservas

Canned fish, including boquerones (anchovies) mejillones (mussels) and berberechos (cockles).
Cool

Dance until 6am at this fashionable club to the sounds of DJs or live music in a range of different styles (Thu–Sun).
Corripio

Kid yourself that you’re in the heart of Asturias by visiting this sidrería (cider tavern).
Croquetas

Spanish croquettes are made with a thick béchamel sauce and chopped ham, chicken or cod then deep fried.
Divina La Cocina

Stylish and trendy, this Chueca restaurant is making waves with its Spanish fusion cooking. Must book ahead.
Don Paco

This Andalusian taberna serves a house speciality of rabo de toro (bull’s tail).
El 2D

Traditional local. You may have to stand while admiring the blue-and-white azulejo tiles, ornamented columns and marble top tables.
El Bocaíto

The bocaítos are small squares of toasted bread, served with a topping of salmon or anchovies. They are the mainstay of an extensive tapas menu. Expect quality rather than quantity and keep an eye on how much you’re spending, as it’s quite easy to run up a fair sized bill (see Bocaíto).
El Comunista

One of the most authentic tabernas in the city, offering simple home cooking (see El Comunista).
El Comunista

The sign says “wine shop” (Tienda de Vinos ) but this taberna has been known as “The Communist” since the postwar days when proprietor Vincent Gómez fed hard-up writers and artists. The prices are still good. The menu includes standards like garlic soup, washed down with house wine (see El Comunista).
