Is Churros con Chocolate at San Ginés worth it for photographers?
SkipFor photos
Churros con Chocolate at San Ginés is the wrong stop for beauty & photography.
A genuine Madrid institution: thick drinking chocolate and fresh churros in a tiled century-old café, beloved as both a 3am post-party ritual and a tourist tick-box. The catch is the queue can snake out the door, the marble tables are cramped, and locals will tell you a dozen neighbourhood spots are just as good without the line.
