Multicultural, gritty, creative

Lavapiés

Madrid's most multicultural barrio: immigrant kitchens, a coffee roastery and the La Tabacalera art space.

Madrid's most multicultural barrio, Lavapiés layers Indian, Senegalese and pan-immigrant kitchens over a steep grid of corralas and street art, with a specialty-coffee roastery and the vast La Tabacalera art space giving it real creative weight. The bar is high here because the casual offer is so deep: this is the global-street-food and global-casual hood where you follow the genuine operators, not the tourist signage. For an Istanbul visitor, the density and diversity feel immediately familiar.
