"Madrid has always been known for its classic century-old taverns, but few modern bars are able to capture that classic soul. Bar Trafalgar did, becoming an instant hit when it opened in 2022. Located in the Chamberí neighborhood, it is the perfect spot to meet friends for a cold draft beer or a classic cocktail. A cool crowd of mature creatives and entrepreneurs piles in after work for some excellent bravas dishes (including potatoes layered in a mille-feuille) and popular toasts with smoked butter and anchovies. If possible, get a seat at the bar to get the best view of the crowds. Vibe check: The place fills up, so make sure to book in advance." - Paula Móvil
