"After you get past the bouncer—use the code-phrase "Vengo a comer," or “I’ve come to eat”—you'll descend into a secret after-hours speakeasy with red-and-white checkered tablecloths. Bleary-eyed revelers sit elbow to elbow carbo-loading on spaghetti like Olympic marathoners—even though it's 5 a.m. But at its core, Lady Pepa isn't about the drinks. It's a hangout—a well-padded, good-vibes-only final stop on a ruinous night out. Best of all, the staff is oddly cheery for working the graveyard shift." - Benjamin Kemper
Loud, Crowded, Grease-Stained, and Gloriously Drunk: Where the World Eats After Hours
"Hemingway said of Madrid, 'Nobody goes to bed until they’ve killed the night,' which is as good a description as any of what the crew at Lady Pepa has come to do."
One of Madrid's legendary latenight/early-morning treasures. Best place to eat before heading home after a night on the town. It opens at 4am and serves traditional Spanish staples until the early hours as the whole place erupts in a sing-along.

20 years ago was the same underground-downstairs -decadent saloon. A classic (the first?) after in Madrid for eating pasta and listening to the piano man once you cannot drink much more.

A hard-to-describe after hours cave, Lady Pepa is a mix of piano bar, Italian Bistro, and speakeasy - a great place to go when you're hungry, you've just been dancing all night, and it's 3:30 in the morning.

Great atmosphere to go after party! Maybe a little over priced.
