Bar Cock

Reina 16, 28004 www.barcock.com
Sirviendo cocktails desde 1921 este clásico de la noche madrileña fue lugar de parada obligatoria de los rich and famous en los 40 y 50. Históricamente relacionado con Chicote, no se comunican subterráneamente como mucha gente cree. Otro favorito de Mad Malasaña. Si no tienes claro lo que quieres confía en tu barman. Hendricks con tónica 13 euros.

Not the most fortunate of names chosen for a bar, but this place is a Classic with capital C. Soon to be 100 years old, its design was based on popular gentleman's clubs in London and they've kept the style since then. If you want a table try and get in early or you'll have to wait at the mercy of the waiters and their own mysterious seating-order plan. Hendricks G&T 13€.
