Founded in 1894, Chocolatería San Ginés is one of the most famous cafes in Madrid located in the passage of San Ginés, behind the church with the same name, in the heart of the city close to the Puerta del Sol. This is one of the most popular places to eat chocolate con churros. It can get crowded though, but the wait is worth it!
Coffee and cakes are also available.
The interior is decorated with mirrors and green wood panels, with green velvet seats and marble tables. The hot chocolate is served in Spanish style – thick, dark and strong – and the churros – deep fried batter, similar to a light, crispy, linear doughnut, cut to length by the staff – are served hot and freshly cooked, ready for dunking.
