Piquío is the café and bar-restaurant of the Hotel Sardinero Madrid, in a restored historic building on Plaza de Alonso Martínez. The carta leans Cantabrian, with classic anchovies and rabas de Santander, alongside simple weekday lunch plates. It's the hotel's bar rather than a separate business.

Background

About Piquío

The Story

Piquío is the bar of the Hotel Sardinero Madrid, a four-star hotel in a rehabilitated historic building on Plaza de Alonso Martínez, at the edge of Chamberí. El Sardinero and Piquío are also the names of a Santander beach and the gardens beside it.

The Cuisine

Cantabrian touches on a hotel bar menu: the hotel highlights anchovies and rabas de Santander, and its posts show simple, complete weekday lunch plates.

Inside the Hotel

Besides Piquío, the Hotel Sardinero has the El Puntal patio, where the breakfast buffet is served from 7:00 to 11:00 on weekdays and 8:00 to 11:30 at weekends, rooftop terraces with views of Madrid, a covered patio for banquets and several meeting rooms. Coeliac diners are asked to raise their needs at reception when booking.

Getting There

Plaza de Alonso Martínez 3, inside the Hotel Sardinero Madrid, in the Trafalgar barrio of the Chamberí district. The address is the hotel's registered address.

Nearby

Trafalgar is the calm shoulder between Malasaña and the wider avenues, residential enough to feel lived-in and central enough to walk out of. The eating skews to neighbourhood favourites and small confident kitchens rather than destinations. It gets quieter, and better value, the further you go from Gran Vía.
