Ni-Fu Ni-Fa is a small cocktail bar on Calle San Joaquín in Malasaña, a couple of streets from Tribunal. The owners work the bar themselves, making classics in their purest form, from a Negroni to a Mai Tai, alongside their own recipes, and pouring vermut in the early evening. The room is calm and a little bohemian, dog-friendly and open late.

Ni-Fu Ni-Fa Dining Experience

Cosy, calm and a little bohemian, the kind of Malasaña bar you duck into for a cocktail (or two). The owners are behind the bar, the glassware is part of the show, and it stays open late.

Getting There

Calle San Joaquín 14, in Malasaña, a couple of streets from Tribunal metro, in the late-night heart of central Madrid.

Nearby

Malasaña is where the city keeps its energy, a tight web of streets that turns over fast and stays up late. The eating is young and restless, with vegan kitchens, coffee bars and creative rooms wedged between places that have not changed in decades. It runs down to Gran Vía, and it rewards walking without a plan.
