Malasaña
Bohemian, design-led Madrid: specialty coffee, natural wine and long late lunches around Plaza del Dos de Mayo.
Bohemian and design-forward, Malasaña is Madrid's specialty-coffee heartland and natural-wine territory, radiating out from the lively Plaza del Dos de Mayo into a grid of indie bistros, vermut bars and concept shops. The rhythm here is the long late lunch and the unhurried afternoon, with roasters and small kitchens setting the city's creative tempo. To an Istanbul visitor it lands somewhere between Karaköy and Cihangir: independent, a little scruffy, genuinely cool.
