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.

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.

I'm so thankful that my Yelp app always leads me in the right direction! My family and I were looking for a quick spot to stop and grab coffee in Madrid. I ordered their Pistachio latte con hielo (on ice) and we grabbed a table. Everyone enjoyed their coffees and the pistachio latte was really good (not overly sweetened, thank goodness). We got a few pastries from the counter and they hit the spot. Overall, a comfortable, beautiful space for taking a break and enjoying coffee with friends and family.

As I was walking back towards Gran Via, I found El Riojano and stopped in. There is the pastry shop in the front and a cafe in the back. I was seated immediately and almost all of the tables were full. This is a very casual place. The menus were on the table, and a server came quickly to take my order. I ordered a cappuccino and a puff pastry with spinach and goat cheese. Both were good and exactly what I needed for a bit of energy. I asked for the pastry to be heated, and it was slightly warm (still cold in the middle). My only critique is that I wish the pastry had been a bit hotter. A steady stream of people arrived and departed while I was there so this seems to be a popular place. I would visit again and look forward to trying one of the bartolillo (traditional to Madrid).
