I grabbed a mini croissant-style puff pastry with turkey, tomato, avocado, and pesto, plus a mini brioche bun with crab, pink sauce, and lettuce. The seafood bun was solid, but that turkey pesto croissant was ... excuse my language ... the f****n' truth! No exaggeration THEE best croissant I've ever had. It was so good chile, I came back the next day and got a full-sized one for lunch and it was still just as good. The space inside is clean and room with lots of comfy furniture; in addition, they also have free WiFi and clean bathrooms which is always appreciated while out and about in the city on vacation. If you're in Madrid (or Mexico City or Japan where there other locations are) this place is a must try! PS: The have a rewards app and will give you a free plain buttery croissant for joining.

The tarta de queso fundente (melting cheesecake) is one of the best desserts I have ever tasted!…read more I actually sought out Pastelería Mallorca because I read somewhere that the Fismuler cheesecake was available there. But from what I can gather, the tarta de queso fundente is a completely different dessert. I was not disappointed! According to their website, the cheesecake has a "thin and crispy cookie layer, a creamy interior, and a flavor blend of cream cheese, fresh cheese, and premium parmesan." I admit I'm a parmesan fanatic. This cheesecake has such an interesting, intense flavor. The texture was indeed "melting" - gooey on the inside, a little bit more set toward the outside. It was rich but not overly sweet, and had a savory kick from the parmesan. I will be dreaming about this cheesecake until I hopefully make it back to Madrid again one day. I came here for dessert and coffee after lunch at the Mercado de la Paz. I also got a lovely café con leche to go with the cheesecake. They have other food and desserts as well, but this cheesecake was so delicious, I wanted to leave a review just to spotlight it.

At first we were sad that when we realized the Saturday Sunday menu was what we were looking at online but it ended up being okay. I got the big toast, cappuccino, and orange juice. My mom got the chicken bowl and chai. My brother got the pancakes and latte. My dad got the protein bowl with a double shot of espresso. For dessert we all shared the pandan. Not a single thing disappointed us it was all phenomenal. The server was so kind and so american friendly which wasn't very common for us on our trip. She even went as far as writing us a list of recommendations of things to do and places to eat for our final day. I am very impressed by this place and recommend it to everyone!

However they've recently banned laptops from everywhere except a very uncomfortable bar around the center column. That bar is also very high so if you're short like me it's impossible to work at. I understand keeping most tables laptop free but having only one spot that is only workable if you're lucky enough to be tall seems rude to me. Especially on weekdays when they never seem to be lacking tables.

Service was quick but took a longg time to bring our check which is pretty typical in Europe honestly. The mini sweet brunch was only 10 euro and included a hot drink (tea, coffee), cold drink, croissant, and choice of baked apples or yogurt with granola and chocolate chips. The croissant was warmed and yummy. The baked apples topped with whipped cream were served cold, but they definitely would've tasted better warm. Overall: cozy, affordable place near Plaza España for breakfast if you're not too hungry or in a rush

There are some spendy things on the menu if you're really hungry, but I was just here to kill some time. Menu in English with prices displayed. I opted for a cup of coffee (with milk) and as is traditional in Europe, this is per cup. They don't brew huge pots of coffee here. Each cup is basically an Americano. Good flavor, plenty of caffeine. With it, I had the toast with butter and jam. The butter was in packets, but the jam seemed handmade and was very sweet. Perfect breakfast food. I was here over an hour. No worries.

I enjoyed the anchovy & tomato sandwich, but the other three were just average. To finish it off, we had a slice of apple cake which was good, but not exceptional. To wash it all down & to cool off, we ordered some mint lemonade. It was very good and refreshing!
