    Carrot cake and cafe con leche
    Susan H.

    We had an extra 30 minutes and wanted to sit and have a cup of coffee. If we had the energy we would have found a better spot. The coffee was pretty good (it seems to be good everywhere). The carrot cake was so good! It was perfect with coffee, but would be great for a dessert too. The restrooms were not clean. The service was not so friendly, but maybe we caught them on a bad day. It was expensive (compared to other spots just as close by).

    Stopped in for a coffee. We loved setting down and watching all the people walk by. Service was good and yes the coffee was perfect.

    If you don't speak Spanish don't expect a smile from the staff. Other than other than that, the setting is nice and the food is okay.

    A Must-Visit in Madrid! If you are looking for the…read morequintessential Spanish churros experience, Chocolatería San Ginés is an absolute must. From start to finish, the experience was flawless. * The Food: The churros were absolutely perfect--wonderfully crispy on the outside and light on the inside. Paired with their signature rich, delicious chocolate for dipping, it is pure heaven. * The Atmosphere: Walking inside, the establishment is beautifully air-conditioned, providing a fantastic, cool escape from the Madrid heat. * The Service: Despite how busy they get, the staff was incredibly welcoming, and the service was exceptionally prompt. We didn't have to wait long at all to dive into our treat. An iconic spot that completely lives up to the hype. Highly recommended!

    This chocolateria has been in business for over 130 years, so it was probably safe to assume they…read moreknow how to make chocolate and just as essentially, the churros upon which their chocolate clings. Based on the definitive opinions of travel vloggers, this appeared to be the place to get the fabled chocolate con churros. Jamie W and I made our way here through the labyrinth of streets near Puerta del Sol. It was early evening so no surprise there was a queue, but it moved quickly because this historic place was a model of efficiency. It's the type of place where you need to be ready to order the moment you're in front of the hostess. Luckily, we had made mental notes of what to order from one particular vlogger, so we were ready. It only took a minute to secure one of their marble cafe tables. Our order arrived fairly quickly. It consisted of a 2,5€ plate of Churros, six long sticks of chewy, delicious dough. Unlike the Mexican version, it wasn't dusted with sugar because the 3,7€ cup of Hot Chocolate was more than enough (Photo 8). Incredibly rich and only lightly sweetened. The churros might've been enough for a neophyte, but we double-downed with a 2,5€ order of two Porros (Photo 7). Porras are a thicker, doughier version of churros, so of course, they were our favorites because they really held the chocolate with assurance. Even though we went through two cups of hot chocolate, we still had 2,4€ cups of Cafes con Leche to wash it all down (Photo 10). It was an ideal dessert experience because who doesn't love awesome doughnuts? Definitely a must-gorge when in Madrid. FOOD - 5 stars...the motherlode when it comes to chocolate con churros...get the porros AMBIANCE - 4 stars...crowded but historically atmospheric with enough elbow room SERVICE - 4 stars...speedy TOTAL - 5 stars...pretty essential Madrid experience RELATED - Exploring Madrid?
