Angelita

In the heart of Madrid's vibrant Chueca district, a dual delight awaits. This spot is a haven for those who appreciate both the art of mixology and the world of fine wines. On the street level, you'll find an impressive wine bar boasting over 1,000 types of wines and spirits, curated by the talented Villalón brothers, David and Mario. But the real magic happens as you descend into the hidden cocktail lounge below—a place where local flavors and sustainable practices reign supreme. Here, the menu is a celebration of plant-inspired cocktails, with inventive concoctions like gin with seasonal berries and herbs or a daring mix of raicilla, blue cheese, and pear. It's no wonder this bar is ranked No. 65 in The World’s 50 Best Bars 2024 extended list.

The atmosphere is as inviting as the drinks, with cozy spaces that cater to every mood. Whether you're there for the wines that highlight Burgundy and Vinos de Madrid or the cutting-edge cocktails, you’ll find a space that feels just right. Complementing the drinks is a hyper-seasonal, vegetable-focused menu featuring ingredients from the owners' family farm, ensuring that every bite is as fresh and delightful as the drinks.
