Great for budget-conscious travelers, this casual, no-frills cider house is one of the most popular tapas bars in Madrid’s LGBTQI-friendly Chueca district. For every drink order, you’ll get an overflowing plate of tapas, which can be a mix of ham and cheese, fried chicken wings, croquetas or patatas bravas (crispy-fried potato chunks served with a smoky paprika sauce and garlic aioli). This is one of the few diners in Madrid open all day, all week, until after midnight.

Sidrería El Tigre has become very popular among Madrid’s student scene and it’s easy to see why. Its food and drink offering is probably among the best value in the city.
