Posada de la Villa

The oldest inn has been established since 1642. Great setting for our first meal in Madrid. We booked in advance and stated it for a birthday but they didn't do anything which is fine. We ordered the roast lamb and garlic prawns which were delicious. The lamb was so juicy didn't feel like eating lamb as the meat is so tender and didn't have that gaming smell. My husband loved the garlicky prawns. Overall, it was a good experience although the price is too steep. My husband certainly wasn't impressed with the price. It's too touristy but I really did enjoy the old inn building and vibe. We were given two keys printed with their inn name as souvenirs. Not sure if they give all people. After all still highly recommended it if money isn't a concern for you.

Amazing experience. It’s not just food, it’s history, atmosphere, great service and delicious food! It was travel back in time. And we’ve got a small souvenir to remind us about that experience and to let us come back and we definitely will.

amazing place, perfect for family gatherings. the morcilla de burgos was amazing, the cogollos and tuna salad could use less cogollos. the charcuterie board amazing, fresh bread and good callos. my favorite was the oxtail, so tender and incredible sauce. the lamb was okay, a bit plane imo, but it was good. for desserts we tried the mixed plate and it was okay, nothing impressive. the bill for 8 people w wine and beers came to 450, quite expensive but worth the price for the city center.

Incredible experience. Got the roasted lamb leg. Gambas Al ajillo, and the potatoes. I requested the potatoes to have the shaved fried garlic like in the shrimp dish. It was delicious!! 😋

Expensive but it was totally worth it. I’ll suggest the lamb. Also, nice to have croquettes for free while reading the menu :). Final remark: you could talk to each other perfectly, no eco at all in there.

A place with real history, specializing in lamb cooked in a stone oven dated 1642. Charming dining rooms and gracious service. A large wine list with very reasonable prices.

Best of the old school Castillia traditions. Very attentive service. Roast lamb delicious, mushrooms to die for.

You think to yourself ‘how good can the lamb be? We can make good lamb back home easy’ but when I tell you the lamb here was out of this world. The way they cook it truly brings out some divine flavours. The fat was so delicious the meat tender. You cannot fault it. The spot is quite nice and rustic, has an old traditional vibe to it. The waiting staff are amazing and super friendly. Be sure to get a salad with the lamb to crush through the fatty goodness taste every now and then. Like a pallet cleanser. And for dessert we had this unreal crispy layered sweet thing it was unbelievable. Just ask for the crispy layered sweet dessert in Espanol I’m sure they’ll know what you mean. Incredible spot. Must do for Madrid.
