La Taberna de Antonio Sánchez

Little changes at this historic spot, from the zinc bar to the bull's head on the wall. Its various owners have all been involved in bullfighting, and roundtable discussions called 'tertulías' of critics, 'toreros' and aficionados are still held here. It's local and friendly, with superior tapas (the best is the scrumptious salad you get free with a drink).
