Useful tips
- The usual way is to dip churros into rich chocolate, so two people can comfortably share one set.
- The surrounding lanes are narrow, so take care not to block foot traffic when taking photos.
- When planning your day, you may wonder whether to add it as dessert after a meal or as a late-night snack. Since it is in the lanes between Sol and Ópera, it is easy to attach as a short stop after a walk around the Royal Palace or Plaza Mayor.
- The chocolate is known for being rich, so if you are visiting right after a meal, decide how much to share before automatically adding one set per person.
