La Venencia Madrid
Madrid's timeless wine sanctuary
Álvaro from Madrid
Not too far from the lively centre of Sol, on a street where the hustle and bustle of the city fades away, lies a truly unique gem: La Venencia. As you step inside, this wine bar immediately envelops you in the aroma of aged barrels and fine wine. From the vintage cash register to the chalk-written tabs and the antique furniture that seems to have stood the test of time, La Venencia exudes an aura of the early 20th century.
It’s a time capsule where time seems to have stood still, offering an escape from the fast-paced modern world. Here, you can unwind amidst the charming ambiance while the bar’s black cat playfully darts under the tables. Known for serving some of the best sherry wines Madrid has to offer, La Venencia specializes in wines originating from the unique grape varieties of the Andalusian province. These wines are perfectly complemented by light snacks like cheese, olives, and high-quality cured meats.
La Venencia isn't just a wine bar; it's an experience that leaves a lasting impression. So, immerse yourself in its ambiance and savour the moment, but remember, photography inside is strictly prohibited. Let’s preserve the authenticity of this remarkable establishment.

I Want to be Her
Madrid in the 1980s was certainly rocking and she became a fixture in the city’s music scene, always going out in her famous leather jacket and cap.

Rebel Cafe
Let them eat cake
The apartment block this cafe sits under is an ugly beauty and I love it, not least for the exuberant planters that are an integral part of the building.

Want to try a real paella?
Although it’s a Galician restaurant, they do an excellent paella mixta (chicken and seafood) and arroz negro, flavoured and coloured with squid ink.
