    Outstanding little cocktail bar one minute away from Madrid's Gran Vía. Skillful mixers will be ready to help you find the right cocktail for you from among their own creations and classics selection. The staff is incredibly friendly and will be happy to prepare something off the menu and assist you in getting your mix done to perfection. What's even rarer, they make sure you enjoy it or otherwise offer to prepare something else. This is excellent attention to detail and customer experience. No wonder many of the people there were greeted by name. I'd become a usual if I lived in Madrid too!

    I’m one of the most picky travelers you’ll ever meet, but I got recommended this place from 4-5 local bar tenders and I have to admit it was amazing. I tried out all 3 bar tenders and they know way more than the classic cocktails. Frederick and Nestor err so hospitable and have the best cocktail knowledge . After 5 - 6 bars in Madrid, this is the best here if you want something chill and authentic.

    The atmosphere was great. I came here by myself and the staff couldn’t have been more friendly. I had the espresso martini. It was good, strong coffee. I plan to visit again during my visit to Madrid. And surprisingly I didn’t have to wait in line like most places in Madrid.

    This place is a gem. The music, the cocktails, the space, the service - everything is 5 stars. I was only in Madrid for 2 nights and had to return here for the second night because it’s perfect.

    Funky cocktail bar, not much space, claimed to have best cocktails in town and from the one I had (Espresso Martini) I couldn’t argue. Would definitely go back.

    A very good address to drink a cocktail. The place if very well decorated and the staff is very kind.

  • 5/5 Casey A. 1 year ago on Google
    An absolute gem. The ambiance is wonderful, the cocktails are excellent, and the service is top notch. Try their take on the Bloody Mary...the best I've had. This is a must visit whilst in Madrid.

  • 5/5 Aimee L. 1 year ago on Google
    Came across this gem on my first night in Madrid. I love the atmosphere, music and the delicious craft cocktails. I had the strawberry Santamaria which was dreamy. My only regret was not trying another cocktail. The crew welcomed me and made me feel at home. Definitely recommend.

    One of the best coctelerias in Madrid, amazing service, elaborate cocktail menu and very cosy atmosphere. Perfect for a date of a night out with a few friends. Try the Bloody Mary, you will be very surprised.

  • 5/5 Geordie E. 5 months ago on Google
    One of the best cocktail places I've been to anywhere. This is an excellent bar whose bartenders take cocktails to a whole new level. Each is crafted with care. If there is a line to get in, it is well worth the wait.

  • 5/5 Rebecca L. 6 months ago on Google
    No Reservations! Pretty fun to find a quality bar that won't ask that question. They have a full bar and several cocktails, virgin cocktails and a house margarita. There is leather cushioning for people leaning up against the bar and pillows on the benches for people sitting at the small tables. The bartenders are fun to watch as they make drinks. Our bartender Pedro, remembered our group from last time and kept us hydrated with cucumber water between drinks. Bathrooms are clean, music is nice. It's a whole vibe down those stairs!

    Santamaría Coctelería in Madrid is a hidden gem deserving of 5 stars! The cozy and intimate atmosphere inside makes it the perfect spot for a night out. The cocktails are an absolute delight, with the clarified Bloody Mary and the Espresso Martini being must-try options. It's a place that truly elevates the cocktail experience.

  • 5/5 Melanie H. 7 months ago on Google
    A hidden gem, it has great cocktails and a fun vibe. I liked it enough to come back 2 nights in a row. I would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Xici Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Probably the best cocktail/service I’ve ever had during my visit in Spain. Extremely kind servers, and really great quality of cocktails. All spoke good English

  • 5/5 mynque 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 George J. 1 year ago on Google

    You have to stop here. It’s the best gin and tonic I have ever had.

  • 5/5 Alejandro M. 5 years ago on Google
    Awesome place for getting cocktails. The mood souronding this place is very good, the music is cool and the barman is extremly nice (was not sure on what to get and he was very helpful). The cocktails are 10 euros, but there are other thing that you can get there. It can get quite crowded so I would recommend being patient and hopefully getting a sit. Overall very recommended.

  • 5/5 Kent W. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good, but everything is a little too sweet. Next time I'll ask for less sweet

  • 5/5 Phil W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great little cocktail bar. Nice decor, fabulous sound track, and a great cocktail menu. But the stars of the show are the staff. Elegant, friendly and knowledgeable. They make you feel welcome and prepare fantastic cocktails. Home of the best Dirty Martini I've ever had!

  • 5/5 Fernando R. 2 years ago on Google
    We discovered this small cozy place by chance and fell in love with it immediately. Amazing cocktails, bartender can ask you a few questions and recommend perfect cocktails for you. Everything we tried was delicious

  • 5/5 Matt C. 2 years ago on Google
    Extremely relaxed atmosphere with perfect lighting and very cool mixologist who makes excellent cocktails. They do both the classics and their own signature drinks. Delicious.

    Best Cocktails in Madrid! Small Bar with a lot of flair. Will definitely come back!

  • 5/5 Michael Van den B. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome Bloody Mary. These Guys are artists.

  • 5/5 Naomi S. 2 years ago on Google
    This Bar was beyond our expectations! The very friendly waiter introduced himself as “the menu” and asked us what type of distillery we liked and created our drinks on this basis. They were amazing! The best bar in Madrid.

  • 5/5 Martin C. 2 years ago on Google
    More than excellent! Freddy is a master mixologist, highly recommended! 🍸

  • 5/5 Samuel G. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely great cocktails, some say best in Madrid, I can confirm they hold a very high class compared to anything anywhere. Many interesting compositions and good variety of drinks available. Atmosphere is great, this is more than just trendy - the place holds great class that goes beyond a single trend. Bartenders are well skilled and very friendly. I will return here many times while in Madrid.
