Overview

Step off the beaten path and experience Madrid like a local on this small-group food tour through the city’s most vibrant and historic neighborhood: Lavapiés. We’ll explore the flavors, stories, and streets that make this area so unique—far from the tourist traps, full of character and authenticity.

As we wander through Madrid’s oldest and most multicultural barrio, your guide will share fascinating stories—from the area’s roots to its evolution into one of the city’s most dynamic cultural hubs. Along the way, we’ll stop at four carefully selected eateries, each offering a different piece of Madrid’s culinary puzzle.

This tour is more than a meal—it’s a journey through history, tradition, and the flavors that bring people together.

Activity itinerary

Calle de Sta. María, 12
  • 30m
We’ll kick things off at a cozy local tavern—one that perfectly captures the spirit of Madrid through both its flavors and atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where locals gather for a quick tapa and a glass of vermouth before lunch. We’ll take a moment to get to know each other while enjoying a homemade Spanish tortilla paired with a glass of house vermouth (as well as a surprise side dish!)—the perfect way to ease into the experience.
Lavapies
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
We’ll step into Madrid’s oldest neighborhood, a place full of rich cultural heritage and vibrant local life. As we walk, we’ll uncover what makes Lavapiés so unique—its history, its diversity, and how it stands apart from the more touristic parts of the city. Along the way, we’ll pause to enjoy a glass of Crianza wine, perfectly paired with a Spanish classic: Gildas—savory skewers that come in more than 15 delicious variations.
Lavapies
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
One of the highlights of our tour: a visit to Madrid’s oldest still-functioning tavern. With over 230 years of history, this iconic spot holds stories in every tile and wooden beam. Here, we’ll uncover some of its secrets while tasting a unique regional wine, accompanied by classic, flavor-packed dishes that reflect the true essence of traditional Madrid cuisine.
Plaza Mayor
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
To wrap up our experience in the best possible way, we’ll head to one of Plaza Mayor’s most charming hidden corners. There, we’ll sit down to enjoy one of Spain’s most iconic dishes—Paella, perfectly paired with a glass of red wine. And of course, we couldn’t end without one of Madrid’s favorite desserts: Tarta de Queso—a rich, creamy cheesecake that’s become a true local favorite.
