Chueca is the undisputed epicenter of LGBTQ+ life in Madrid, so Jamie W and I made a beeline to…read morethis vibrant gayborhood from our hotel on our very first night. Our evening had a disappointing start at D'Mystic, a popular spot packed with a mixed crowd and staffed with indifferent bartenders. This lapse was remedied when we left and walked over to what we read was a festive lounge. During the day, it's apparently a low-key brunch cafe, and in fact, they were still serving sandwiches and desserts on the main floor. However, up on the second floor is a stylish bar lounge with energetic dance music and a decidedly tropical decor. We weren't quite ready to cut a rug because we aren't extroverts.By the time we sat down at our table, the bar was just starting to attract looser limbed customers. Besides, the tiki cocktail menu beckoned us. Jamie went for the 10€ Coco Loco which had equal parts tequila blanco, vodka, and rum, while I ordered their signature 12€ Pina Colada with rum, pineapple juice, and coconut cream (Photo 10). They hit our respective spots and finally gave us the classic Chueca vibe. OK, we were finally ready to dance like Elaine on "Seinfeld". Give us room, will ya? COCKTAILS - 4 stars...desirable tiki libations nicely executed AMBIANCE - 4 stars...the right breezy-clubby vibe SERVICE - 4 stars...good guys at the bar TOTAL - 4 stars...adds to Chueca's cred CORRESPONDING REVIEW D'Mystic: https://yelp.to/5zrmEunpjU RELATED - Exploring Madrid?

Though listed as a gay bar, and it does have a good number of young (as in 16...forget that the sign says you must be 18.....) to 25 year old gay guys in it, it also seems to attract a near equal number of heteros out to party with the female dates. After all, when it comes to liveliness, there are few places that can compare with a good friendly bar loaded with a mix of gays and straights as well as those of undetermined orientation. It has a young following and though I exceeded the average age of the other patrons by a mere half century, had a good time drinking and chatting with everyone. Matter of fact, the atmosphere about the place is sort of club like, everyone friendly and just there to enjoy a good time.

Staff and patrons were friendly and it was a fun time that allowed us to connect with locals

What I ordered: I ordered a zombie. It came in a cute tiki glass and was very strong! It was averagely priced at 9€. My friend got the raspberry marg, but I thought 9€ was a little expensive for her drink. It took a while to receive the drink (like 10-15 minutes), but it was tasty and the vibe of the restaurant is fun! I would recommend this place for a cute pre-dinner/bar drink.

Stopped in for a late lunch after a morning of exploring. While the atmosphere was friendly and the…read morestaff were welcoming, there were more than a few tables that had the remains of previous meals, so seating space was sparse. I sat at a dirty table and sort of stacked things off to the side, and a nice staffer came and properly bussed the table. He smiled and apologized- they were just getting over the lunch rush. No worries there. The food that arrived, was not what I've come to expect from my brief time here in Spain. I didn't expect gourmet quality, but it was a bit dry and needed something more than just the bland tomato. I wound up not finishing it. Service and decor and attitude - full marks. I'd have to cautiously try another menu item again before recommending anything more in the food department.
