The torrija was one of, if not the best one we had while in Madrid. The service was quick and friendly at the to go counter for me.

We happened upon it and I was so pleasantly surprised. I think we went three times during our time in Madrid. I loved the counter experience, I'd definitely recommend that option. I wasn't looking to sit down and do all of that upstairs so my review is solely based on counters on the first floor. The locals love this spot and that is quite obvious. I was told in advance that they do and coming here was very enjoyable. The pastries and coffee are very yummy, you won't be disappointed. Makes for the perfect spot if you really want to get your day started but want to grab a quick bite before doing so.

It's seriously so good. I also love their croissant mixto. It's better than the other ones I have tasted in other cafes. This place is always clean and has a warm and cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend this place if you need a light bite. The quality is incredible. Often there is a short line but it moves quickly.

It all tasted really good! I was going to get a smoothie, but was told they didn't have the machine to make it the day I went, but the staff recommended a milkshake so I got a strawberry one with oat milk and it tasted good and on the natural side, which I enjoyed! There is good indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is friendly and very attentive. We went back a couple days later for lunch and the food did not disappoint either. We got the nachos, chicken and waffles, and fish and chips. The same lady helped us out and the food came out relatively quick. Overall, I look forward to returning.

We stopped in for some brunch and each ordered the brunch combo 2 (€14.95), which came with…read morewonderfully seasoned scrambled tofu, an extremely rich and decadent ham+cheese croissant (essentially a croque monsieur), OK vegan bacon, and a solid enough avocado+tomato toast. The tofu scramble was definitely the highlight -- being cooked with seemed like kala namak (black salt) or something similar to give it that eggy/sulphuric character. The avocado+tomato toast was also decent, though needed some amping up with extra virgin olive oil and salt that they provided to season for yourself. The combos also come with a choice of coffee drink -- I did a late, which was very well-made. Overall, somewhat Spanish takes on various breakfast/brunch cuisines, done pretty well. Not a standout spot in Madrid, but a cool spot nonetheless that I'd recommended moderately.
