The best take-away restaurants Madrid

With its Greek and Mediterranean influences, this stylish bar-cafeteria offers delicious, fresh and healthy products. And what's more, it's not cheap, with a daily menu at €9.90 (takeaway or eat-in)! Whether you're looking for a pita or a gyros with excellent falafels, a good Greek yoghurt or something to eat on the go, this is a great place to go. What's more, the welcome is very pleasant (and sometimes in French) and the advice always pertinent. Perfectly in the spirit of Malasaña. Happy hour from 5pm to 8pm on Saturdays.

This is probably one of the best tapas bars in the Spanish capital. You are greeted with a smile and the bottles of wine, all excellent, hanging on the walls invite only to ask for a glass of the best Rioja, accompanied by a plate of ham or cheese. A delicious and authentic address, in an old-fashioned setting (exactly what you imagine when you set down your suitcases in Madrid), where it is sometimes hard to make your way to the bar when the evening is in full swing. But a very good time ahead.

This is a great place to have a glass of (good) wine and some delicious tapas in the northern part of the Malasaña district. In a small room with modern accents where bricks and wood cohabit marvellously, you can enjoy skewers of salsa scampi, marinated anchovies or mini hamburgers. A very popular address in the evenings on weekends and a very good del dia menu during the week (with a choice of meat or fish every day). On the flip side, the reception can be a little cold.

In one of the small streets leading to the Plaza Major, you can eat there for really cheap! For 3 €, you can choose between a squid sandwich or fried chorizo, blood sausage, bacon... La Ideal is the meeting place for young people with no money (who keep their money to make the night last as long as possible) and the workers of the neighbourhood. The place is not very attractive and it is always crowded at mealtimes, but it is a good option to eat on the go while strolling around Plaza Mayor. Typical Madrid.

The Txakolina tavern is a beautiful modern establishment in the Cava Baja, whose tapas, all lined up on the bar, will make you look at the door as soon as you walk in. Croquetas, bombas, sandwiches or mini burgers, the classics are nicely revisited and the tapas are more original than elsewhere. In any case, there is something for everyone and the quality is there. An address which, victim of its success, does not empty... It is sometimes necessary to play elbows and to wait a little the weekend to be able to be served.

This well-known sandwich bar in Madrid has been offering low prices and quality ingredients since 1940. Very welcoming, you'll often find long queues outside the door, especially at lunchtime on Sundays. Bocadillos are made right in front of you, and squid bocadillos are the casa's signature specialty. The room is very small and the student clientele take advantage of the beer minis (plastic glasses generally holding around 15 cl) sold at very attractive prices (€1.80).

Located on the outskirts of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium and the financial district, the Petit Comité is the perfect option if you're visiting Madrid's stadium or going to see a match. Value for money here is excellent. The tasting menu comprises a starter, four courses and a dessert. We particularly recommend the steak tartare, which you can enjoy outside on the lovely, sheltered terrace. On match nights, the screens are out and the atmosphere changes completely!
