Bristol Bar is probably the most British of all the bars in Madrid. It’s part brasserie, part English pub. It’s informal, but smart and warm. The main attraction might be the extensive gin menu. It includes more than sixty different gins for gin tonic lovers. I recommend it more for having a drink than for eating, but they have dishes like English soup of the day, roast beef, fish and chips or bread & butter pudding. On Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays, the clients can enjoy an English brunch. All other days, there is a lunch menu for 11,90 Euros. Tea in the afternoon, the first drink of the night… it’s open almost all day and night. There are many activities in Bristol bar, like thematic dinners, concerts, wine tastings and so on.

Their website advertises (as you note) an afternoon tea, replete with tea (or coffee, actually), scones, butter and jam. I met a friend there to try it and turns out…no scones, nor anything similar and nothing really on the menu worth trying for less than 8 or 9 euros. The place itself was nice– comfy booths and chairs and a very mixed crowd. I don’t think I would necessarily make it a point to go back except if I met a very gin-loving friend.
