One of Madrid's oldest and most elegant cocktail bars, Bar Cock has been operating since 1921 and retains its original dark wood paneling, leather stools, and hushed, clubby atmosphere. The classic cocktails are made with precision and the bartenders are old-school professionals who take their craft seriously. It's a rare slice of pre-war Madrid bar culture that hasn't been diluted for tourists. Dress smartly — the vibe demands it.
