We had chocolate and churros in October, 2009. Despite the huge customer traffic at this tourist landmark, the staff were pleasant, we got a seat, and the food was good. Prices were very reasonable for a sit-down cafe, with mirrors and marble trim, yet. We detected no odors (...other review) in the inviting lower level. But since the bathrooms are... more

The idea of churros in bed was a fun one, so we were happy to learn that San Gines prepares to-go bags. Warning: environmentalists will not like the Styrofoam cups (strike 1). Eating back at our hotel was also appealing because the only tables still available inside the chocolateria were downstairs, which reeked of sewage (strike 2). When we finally... more

Thought we should give this place a go as we had heard nothing but good things about the chocolate and churros. Very nice building inside, service was fine. Churros were good, but the chocolate wasn't as rich as I had hoped for. Have had better chocolate in other spanish cafes. Still worth a visit, but not really a highlight. more

We were ready to taste the best chocolate in the world, but we found only a ordinary chocolate with oil soaked churros: not so fantastic! more

Nothing better than churros and chocolate at 05:00 am on a sunday morning! more

It is a little like stepping back in time, into this old chocolateria in the San Gines passageway! It is romatic, old and worn - very old world, if not too a little bit grimy. Nonetheless, this is a must-see and a great place to go to late at night. Churros and chocolate are wonderfully comforting and make a great... more

My preference is for the ridged churros and these did not disappoint. The hot chocolate is hot, thick, and barely sweetened (they provide a packet of sugar if you like yours sweeter). The churros were obviously made fresh, because they were too hot to touch when placed upon the table. Delicious, and a great destination, popular with locals and tourists,... more
