Bar Postas

Fried-squid sandwich bar by Plaza Mayor

Hours: Thu-Tue 08:00-midnight, closed Wednesday
Budget: €5-10 per person
Address: Calle de Postas 13, between Plaza Mayor and Sol

A small bar a block from Plaza Mayor. It is too narrow for much seating, so most people eat standing at the counter or take away. The calling card is the bocadillo de calamares, fresh-fried squid rings in a baguette. It is cheap, so office workers and tourists queue together at lunch.
