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.

Marzipan can also be used as a thin sheet over cakes. It can be glazed and topped with chocolate or fruit. So I had to try it due to it being incredible eye candy. Santo Tome has been around since the 1850s and this one was adjacent to a main square so it's quite popular for locals and turistas. I got a few and enjoyed eating them although they all tasted somewhat the same, but it was all good. So if you're in Toledo, Oh....I mean Spain, stop on in.

From cake to crepes, they have alllll the sweets you could dream of. I went in on a Saturday at 1. They looked like they were just finishing their rush. The inside is cute and antique-y. They have a lot of their desserts on display so you can look before you order. What I ordered: I wanted a ratatouille, but they were all sold out. It looked like they were sold out of a couple of things. I got a Brie and tomato sandwich and the healthy cheesecake. The sandwich was okay, but the cheesecake was a stand out! I WILL be back.

The raspberry croissant was decadent and flaky. It was excellent. The classic croissant was not as good. It was not as crisp or flaky. The Bret always was interesting. It tasted like a heavily fried and dense version of a palmera and was covered in glaze, chocolate and filled with raspberry. It was a little much for me. I would only order the raspberry croissant again but it alone is worth returning for. Everything looks amazing.

I ordered the mint chip and it was nice! The flavors are limited so if you're visiting from other countries, don't expect the choices you may get elsewhere. But the flavors they do serve are yummy! It's always fun trying ice cream in different country, each has their own unique flair! Come get a scoop!!

After a night of tapas and walking around, we stopped by here for some sweet treats…read more I tried two flavors of ice cream in a cup. I tried the mango sherbet and the passion fruit cream gelato. Let me just say, I was not disappointed with my choices. They were both awesome in their own ways. Liz tried the crepes, and it was loaded with cajeta. It was tasty and the warmth of the crepe melted the caramel to the right consistency to say whoah... this is really caramel-ly. It was really good. She topped it off with a scoop of banana nut gelato. The service was nice, but I think they took a bit of time with the crepe. That said the crepe was nothing worse for wear. I got my ice cream almost instantly, and so it was easy to share the two desserts one after the other. The shop is brightly lit, and easy to find on the corner of Tirso de Molina Plaza. It goes through bouts of busy-ness as folks drop in from other places. This dessert shop knows what they are doing... if you are in the area, drop in.
