Madrid has tons of Christmas markets and one of the best ones is Nomada Market, which is taking place on the top floor of Charmartín train station from Nov 11-13. More than 80,000 people have visited the market over its last 10 years of success! Entrance is just €1 (free for children)
To add to the madness of Madrid Beer Week (Nov. 21-30), Cervercería L’Europe is holding its very own craft beer festival weekend. Located near metro Bilbao, Cervecería L’Europe is one of Madrid’s best German bars, serving a wide range of beers and good food, too (got to love that sausage…)
In fact, this bar is the favorite of one of our friends, Nacho, who runs an international beer shop in Chueca, La Buena Cerveza. Also, one of our writers who’s a big beer fan, Alex, included Cercervería L’Europe in his series on best craft beer bars in Madrid: Beer State of Mind in Madrid and A Heightened Beer State of Mind in Madrid
Beerlingual is a free, international pub quiz held every Thursday night from 9pm-11pm at Cervecería La Espuma in La Latina (c/ Arganzuela, 1). This fun event brings locals and visitors from around the world together to meet new people, make friends, practice languages, win prizes and have a good time.
The event is run by the “Quiz Master” who asks questions in both English and Spanish, covering popular culture, tourism, music, cinema, and an array of other topics. The winners will be awarded prizes!
You’ll also find great offers on beer, drinks and cocktails. The game then continues online at www.Facebook.com/
Every Thursday, you have a great excuse to get out of the house and enjoy some of the best Italian food that Madrid has to offer. And if you don’t believe me, then just ask the Italians at the restaurant!
The Italian café in Malsaña, Aio, organizes Thursday ‘aperaios’ — 5€ all-you-can-eat Italian buffet serving delicious pasta, rice, crostini, and more. It’s simply a Sardinian paradise!
For just 10€, you will get the chance to taste three (generously poured) glasses of wine, each one with its very own plentiful tapa. We at Naked Madrid have been to two of these tastings already and absolutely love them. Held in Lambuzo’s downstairs wine cellar, the tasting will be laid-back and provide wonderful service and delicious food and wine.
