Brownie Coffee Madrid

The garden of your dreams

"Hidden in Madrid’s Salamanca district, Brownie’s café offers a Parisian-style courtyard, specialty coffee by Hola Coffee, and a cozy mix of fashion and flavors."

The first time you go through the front door of the number 26 of Hermosilla Street, the last thing you'd expect is a Parisian yard. This romantic and secret garden is located in one of the most beautiful areas of Madrid: "El barrio Salamanca". An old iron bike filled with flowers will be the only sign that will guide you through the ancient cobbled carriages passage that will welcome you to this gorgeous and colorful world.

Brownie is a Mediterranean fashion brand that opened this lovely coffee shop, partnering with the specialty coffee specialists of Hola Coffee.

On the ground floor, you can find the fashion store and on the first floor, the coffee shop with drinks and bakery options. You can find seats on the outdoor terrace or indoors if the weather is not welcoming.

This hidden and quiet garden is my go-to place to take a break when I'm shopping around, to disconnect from the city noise for a while.

Casa Dani

A ‘tortilla’ unlike any other

"Casa Dani" in my opinion makes the best Spanish omelette in Madrid, and this is coming from a passionate Spaniard himself!
