True tapas, as it was originally intended, should come free with your drink. This is still the case in places like Granada and Leon, and in a few places in Madrid. Find out about the best bars in Madrid to get free tapas.
Though Madrid is not renowned for its free tapas, there are a few bars that still offer it.
Free tapas in Madrid is a rough and ready affair - with the exception of Magister, you get what you're given and you can't complain because it's free.
1. El Tigre
The most famous place to get free tapas in Madrid. The tapas is always served in big quantities, but you never get any say in what is given (and the variety is poor). Always busy.
Address: Calle de las Infantas, 30
Metro: Chueca/Gran Via
2. Magister
Excellent micro-brewery just off Plaza Santa Ana. For every one of their home brewed beer you order, you get a choice of a tapa.
Address: Calle de Princesa 18
Metro: Anton Martin/Sol/Sevilla
3. Taberna Meson das Meigas
A traditional style Galician bar with a younger-than-expected clientele due to their cheap liters of beer. Staff can be pretty grumpy, but a good bar all round.
Address: Calle de Barbieri 6
Metro: Chueca/Gran Via
4. A Cañada
In the vein of El Tigre, but probably better. A short walk from Atocha train station and the Reina Sofia museum, this little tapas bar gives you a plate of food with every beer.
Address:
Calle del Fúcar, 20
Metro: Anton Martin/Atocha
5. Boñar de Leon
Famous for its immense portions, infamous for its poor quality. You might chance upon a great dish, but you often won't. If you are traveling on half a shoestring and really can't afford better, it's worth a try.
Address: Calle de la Cruz Verde, 16
Metro: Noviciado
