Every time we’re in Madrid, we end up here 🫶🏼 We actually got there about 5 minutes before they opened, and they still welcomed us with the biggest smile. Such a small thing, but it instantly made us feel so welcome. Thanks to Brian! 🙌🏼 The food is always so fresh, everything comes out super fast,
Background
About La Hummuseria
The Story
La Hummusería was opened by Lotam and Shia, who fell in love with Madrid and moved from Tel Aviv to start an Israeli gastrobar. Some dishes come from the cooking of grandmother Fortuna, such as the slow-cooked white beans in tomato sauce with rice. The team also runs a falafel spin-off and delivers through Glovo and Uber Eats.
The Cuisine
Middle Eastern and Israeli home cooking built around hummus, served warm with toppings and fresh pita, with gluten-free bread available. Most of the menu is vegetarian, and dishes are marked vegan, gluten-free or mild.
The Carta
Hummus comes classic with garlic and chilli (€9.90), with mushrooms, with matbucha, the slow-cooked North African tomato sauce, or with pine nuts and almonds (€11.90); a free red zhug adds serious heat. Starters include spicy watermelon with feta and dates, roast aubergine with tahini and dukkah, 'Sofia's aubergine' with matbucha and feta, a beetroot carpaccio and a sesame bagel with matbucha and za'atar. Salads run from Greek and fattoush to a chopped 'Middle Eastern Market' salad. Mains are grandmother Fortuna's white beans, maklouba, the upside-down rice with cauliflower, aubergine and almonds served with a spiced pear jam (€15.90), and shakshuka, classic or Balkan with feta and spinach. Desserts include malabi, a kataifi and pistachio biscuit and a basbousa semolina cake.
Drinks, Lunch Menu and Hours
To drink there's homemade lemonade and iced tea, beers including a gluten-free one, a short list of boutique Spanish wines by the glass from €3.60, and cocktails such as an ouzo with dates and mint. On weekdays until 16:30 the €14.90 menú del día brings a drink, harira soup or roast beetroot, a hummus or the white beans with rice, and coffee or dessert. It opens every day from 13:00 to 23:00 with the kitchen running non-stop; book online, or just walk in.
