La Hummuseria Madrid

For hummus lovers

Elena from Madrid

About me My name is Elena. I’ve studied journalism and cinema, and I’ve been travelling since I was a newborn. My parents instilled in me their passion for travel, and I’ve travelled around Europe and USA. I’m the one that always organized the family trips and that’s how I heard about Spotted by Locals, because it perfectly fits the way I like to travel. I love cinema, art, fash...
""La Hummuseria" is a vegetarian restaurant in Madrid made for hummus fans like me! My favourite's the one with mushrooms. Protip: say yes to the egg..."

When I found out that Kona-Lei, my favourite Hawaiian cocktail bar in Madrid, was closed I was really unhappy. But, in its place they opened, La Hummuseria, a vegetarian restaurant made for hummus fans (like me), so my sorrow didn't last long.

La Hummuseria is a very luminous and comfortable space with very nice waitresses willing to help you decide. They offer several types of hummus: the classic version, with cooked mushrooms (my favourite), with almonds and pinions, with green tahini (with parsley) and the lemon macerated one. They will ask you if you want the hummus with boiled egg: say YES!

The hummus is always freshly made, so it was the first time I tried warm hummus in my life, and it was great!

Besides hummus, you can also order huge salads full of fresh and seasonal ingredients. And 'tapas' that change daily like ganoush, taboulé,...They have a € 9.50 menu on weekdays that includes a hummus plate, three small 'tapas', bread, drink and tea or coffee.

And last but not least, I highly recommend you try their signature cocktail: homemade lemonade spiked with Ouzo, a typical anise from Greece. Delicious!!!

Madrid Spotter Elena

About me My name is Elena. I’ve studied journalism and cinema, and I’ve been travelling since I was a newborn. My parents instilled in me their passion for travel, and I’ve travelled around Europe and USA. I’m the one that always organized the family trips and that’s how I heard about Spotted by Locals, because it perfectly fits the way I like to travel. I love cinema, art, fashion, dancing, and eating! But above all, I enjoy myself the most when I’m discovering new fantastic places around me to go to with my friends. Why Madrid? What I love the most about...
