Our Take
Madrid's Heritage 1856 Las Letras Tavern
Viva Madrid is the heritage 1856 Las Letras tavern — operating in the same Belle Époque interior with original Talavera tile work. The bar has been a Madrid heritage institution for 168 years and is in the most-touristed part of the literary quarter.
The cocktail program is broad and well-built. The kitchen serves traditional Spanish small plates. The crowd is Madrid heritage tourists and visiting tapas tourists.
Pair with La Venencia for a complete Madrid heritage tavern evening.
