I actually walked by this place when i went looking for it. It is easy to miss.
Once i walked in, i was hit with the history of this place, the dusty bottles, the old bar, the furniture, the old posters on the walls..
I ordered a sherry and sat at a table next to the bar. I couldn't help but to think i was lost in time, sitting there.

Apparently a favorite haunt of Hemmingway, this place is a gem. Full of olde world charm without being naff. There is a resident cat, old men in flat caps behind the bar, tipping is frowned upon and delicious fino sherry. There is nothing flashy about it, it is just excellent.
Absolutely brilliant atmosphere - 5 different sherries and great tapas - and all at extremely reasonable prices ... bit tricky to find but loved every minute ... would definately re-visit if I was ever in Madrid again!
A recommended and tasty sherry bar. The menu is very focused on a number of Spanish items, no English translation.
We have no idea what we ate and drank but it was good.
Wonderfully atmospheric bar that only serves delicious sherry and simple tapas. Try the bone-dry manzanilla, served chilled in generous glasses. Thankfully there are absolutely no concessions to tourism here and the atmosphere is welcoming and local. Free of music and fake decor, it's a place to sip the wine and soak in the simple ambience which has probably remained unchanged for decades. A Madrid highlight.
