Do yourself a favor and stop here for torrija. I would recommend taking it to go or seeing if you…read morecan snag a spot upstairs. This place gets busy and packed and was hectic when we stopped in. The torrija was one of, if not the best one we had while in Madrid. The service was quick and friendly at the to go counter for me.

La Mallorquina came as a recommendation from our hotel when I asked for a local bakery with coffee…read more I'd had a long list of places I wanted to try but always like to ask as well. We happened upon it and I was so pleasantly surprised. I think we went three times during our time in Madrid. I loved the counter experience, I'd definitely recommend that option. I wasn't looking to sit down and do all of that upstairs so my review is solely based on counters on the first floor. The locals love this spot and that is quite obvious. I was told in advance that they do and coming here was very enjoyable. The pastries and coffee are very yummy, you won't be disappointed. Makes for the perfect spot if you really want to get your day started but want to grab a quick bite before doing so.

My boyfriend and I stopped in Medri in the afternoon on a weekday, so it was not very crowded…read more Medri has all different types of tiramisù (lemon, strawberry, classic), but we decided to try the mixed berry. It was so delicious and the berries tasted very fresh. The coffee was also very good. The only possible downside is that there is limited seating, so it might be best to plan to take the tiramisù to go.

Therefore, it's relatively easy to get to. It's not very easy to order. You can't order from the table bar code menu. The server must take your order. If it's busy, you might wait a while. Other than that, the dessert was delicious and the coffee hit the spot.

Appealing to the eye and a fairly hefty portion, but not so much that it's overwhelming. The cinnamon roll comes with 2 sauces and 2 toppings. We got the kinder and classic sauce and coconut and Oreos. This place is known for their cinnamon rolls and I see why. They are fluffy and light, but sweet and fresh. Although delectable, I would recommend trying them. My husband ordered the shukshuka and it was very very good. Once I tried his I wished I had ordered that too. The decorations are cute and a modern fairy tale. And the service was warm, but quite slow.

It all tasted really good! I was going to get a smoothie, but was told they didn't have the machine to make it the day I went, but the staff recommended a milkshake so I got a strawberry one with oat milk and it tasted good and on the natural side, which I enjoyed! There is good indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is friendly and very attentive. We went back a couple days later for lunch and the food did not disappoint either. We got the nachos, chicken and waffles, and fish and chips. The same lady helped us out and the food came out relatively quick. Overall, I look forward to returning.

We stopped in for some brunch and each ordered the brunch combo 2 (€14.95), which came with…read morewonderfully seasoned scrambled tofu, an extremely rich and decadent ham+cheese croissant (essentially a croque monsieur), OK vegan bacon, and a solid enough avocado+tomato toast. The tofu scramble was definitely the highlight -- being cooked with seemed like kala namak (black salt) or something similar to give it that eggy/sulphuric character. The avocado+tomato toast was also decent, though needed some amping up with extra virgin olive oil and salt that they provided to season for yourself. The combos also come with a choice of coffee drink -- I did a late, which was very well-made. Overall, somewhat Spanish takes on various breakfast/brunch cuisines, done pretty well. Not a standout spot in Madrid, but a cool spot nonetheless that I'd recommended moderately.
