Madrid

Bar

Taberna de los Ángeles

Sit at the bar and order small beers This place might be a tourist trap, but honestly, it did everything I needed it to do. Had great service, cool aesthetic, and you sit at the bar and order two small beers, and they bring out two small things to eat with each one. Because we of course drank ten small beers, there started to become a loyalty points reward system, where once they clocked that we were in it for the long haul, the tapas started becoming increasingly more delicious, graduating from just chorizo on bread (still delicious) to some sort of fish on bread, and ultimately to sliced ham, which I’m told they don’t usually include with tapas. As a Los Angeleno myself, the name of the establishment was also warm and welcoming. Great spot. Felt like I got an authentic tapas experience, even if it’s not, like, the place to go in Madrid.
