Falafelería Madrid
Not only falafel
In the vibrant heart of Madrid's Malasaña neighborhood, Falafelería emerges as a haven for those with a penchant for Middle Eastern flavors. A culinary sibling to La Hummusería, this establishment showcases the richness of vegetarian and vegan delights.
While falafel reigns supreme here, the menu offers an array of enticing fillings for your pita pocket. Opt for the vegetarian sabij, a harmonious blend of crispy aubergine, hard-boiled egg, creamy hummus, and refreshing salad. For a vegan twist, the vegan shawarma is a must-try, boasting a medley of mushrooms, seitan, raisins, and the aromatic ras el hanout spice mix. Your palate and wallet are both in for a treat, as a scrumptious sandwich paired with their homemade lemonade sets you back by less than 10 €. Enhance your meal with a side of their tantalizing fries, drizzled with a zesty lemon and capers aioli.
Falafelería's commitment extends beyond just serving delectable dishes. They champion the cause of vegetarian cuisine, ensuring every ingredient is fresh, bursting with flavor, and devoid of any preservatives or additives. Their falafel and hummus, crafted daily, embody this dedication to freshness and authenticity.
Adding a cherry on top is their dog-friendly policy. So, the next time you're in the mood for some Middle Eastern goodness, bring along your furry friend and savor the flavors at Falafelería.
