Zara is a Spanish institution and the brand continues to offer stylish, affordable fashion. They…read morehave a huge range of styles and sizes, with staff available to assist. The one downside is the line for the dressing room but just know you will likely have to wait and be patient. For those departing the EU, bring your passport with you and request a VAT receipt so you can secure your VAT refund at the airport. It makes the prices even better!

This Zara is the Gran Via flagship in Madrid. While set in a beautiful old building, inside is all…read moremodern and with a stunning wrought iron and marble staircase in the back. Take a look even if you don't want to shop. Like other clothing chains, Zara relegates the Mens department to purgatory, either the top floor or the basement. This one is on top. Selections were laid out nicely and uncluttered. Even items in the sale section which were marked down pretty good. Sales people do an admirable and unenviable job of keeping the clothing stacks orderly. Unlike Primark which is a zoo. There seemed to be enough staff to handle the crowd, and the male fitting room attendant was helpful. The new thing for me is Zara's self-checkout. The cashier section was empty, and clerks were assisting with self-checkout. My guy was friendly and demonstrated how to do it. He actually did it for me because it was probably faster LOL. Just throw the goods in the bin and it records what was tossed in without manhandling the barcodes. No security clips to take off. I tossed in a recycled shopping bag and it added to the total. I swiped my iPhone digital card and was on my way. Amazing! I don't know if this will fly in the USA with so many stores hit by a shoplifting pandemic.

I am not a big Zara fan in the US but Spain was different and this store had some really cute…read morestuff. For starters there are more than one Zara In the same vicinity but this one did seem bigger compared to others . Spanning multiple floors but the layout was such a mess .The vibe was more like wander around until you find something and that's what I did . I did end up buying a few things . If your are coming from outside Europe get the tax free form as you can get the VAT returned. I did ask for the form but eventually forgot all about it at the airport . The staff is not friendly and don't bother you unless you specifically go and ask for something .

Yes, Zara's outside of NA are much better. First of all, the quality is much better!…read more This particular location was crazy due to the after-Holiday "rebajas". However, I must say in between this location vs. Gran Via, this location had waaay more sale items. So this means more people, more mess. Like all Zaras, customer service is non-existent. Fitting Room attendant was on the sales floor fixing up racks. Even though it was busy, there was only ONE cash open. :( I scored some deals, but again, you hafta deal with crowds, mess, and lines!

What a fun store!…read more Decided to come here last week with my mother when we were in town on vacation. The store is very colorful and full of hundreds of fun and unique items. It took me awhile before I settled on getting a cute t-shirt and a small cosmetic pouch, but if I had the space in my luggage, I would've considered getting more items. I would recommend peeking in here if you happen to be in the Salamanca neighborhood. You may find a cute souvenir to bring back home.

Although the prevailing fashion in Madrid is London Mod circa 1965, the rockers have their…read morerepresentation in this Ed Roth/Vince Ray style boutique. Chopper Monster has regular concerts and club nights, and a house band whose name i can't remember for the life of me. Chopper enthusiasts meet up on their Chopper bikes and generally have a lot of fun etc. Great clothes if you're into the 50s look, but most of the shirts seemed to have been bought cheap from America, and simply embroidered with the words 'Chopper Monster.' Best one was a 777 devil shirt and the Ace of Spades Chopper Monster insignia. Also liked the Thrill Kill t-shirt presumably from the movie The Thrill Killers, distributed by the same guys that put out Rat Fink a Boo Boo. T-shirts cost about EUR15, and I should have bought one, but I was vacillating between these and a Madrid Oso y el Madrono one from Corte Ingles, and ended up with neither thanks to a catastrophic Terminal 4 run with two girls who shall remain nameless.
