Getting There

The original is on Calle del León, 30, in the Barrio de las Letras, the old writers' quarter just east of Puerta del Sol. A second café sits on Calle de la Palma, 47, in Malasaña.

Nearby

This spans two of central Madrid's most walkable literary and creative quarters, Barrio de las Letras and Malasaña. Both are dense with small bars and restaurants, and both reward wandering rather than following a plan.
