If you’re looking for an unmatched selection of wines served in a multi-room space by two knowledgeable brothers, we’re here to tell you about your new favorite spot. David and Mario Villalón opened Angelita in early 2016 with a single goal in mind: create a space where wine is celebrated by people who love it. The first floor is dedicated to the wine bar, a great place to sample local wines from in and around Madrid, as well as DO selections from France, Portugal and the rest of Spain. David and Mario have amassed a truly impressive cellar of over 500 wines, but this isn’t just a place for vino connoisseurs.
Mario heads up the cocktail bar, where you’ll find inventive creations alongside perfectly executed renditions of classic drinks. And once you’ve worked up an appetite, the bar’s ever-evolving menu is filled with hyper-seasonal dishes that will satisfy you no matter what you’re drinking. Think traditional recipes with a modern twist, with all their ingredients sourced deliberately and carefully. Angelita is a large bar with lovely windows, distinct spaces to let you choose your own vibe, and plenty of delicious things to eat and drink—it’s no wonder it’s the queen of C/Reina.
