La Gildería

12 New-Wave Vermouth Bars In Spain - Barcelona - The Infatuation

"The gilda: a skewer of briny ingredients like anchovies, guindilla peppers, and manzanilla olives. It’s understated, elegant, and satisfyingly fun—just like La Gildería. The space falls somewhere between an urban brewery and an old-school tapas bar, with big windows letting in plenty of natural light. As the name implies, gildas are the star here. While the classics shine, their inventive variations are what set them apart. Don’t miss the langostino gilda, skewered with prawn, olive, and quail egg, or the pulpo gilda, featuring octopus, pickled cucumber, pearled onion, and an olive. Grab a vermut on tap and settle into a Madrileño afternoon, surrounded by customers pointing out their gildas of choice and clinking glasses with each round." - david neimanis
