The Ultimate Gluten-Free Tapas Experience
Eating gluten-free in a tapas bar usually means asking three questions and settling for olives. Not here. On this private tour we take you into three traditional taverns whose kitchens we know personally, where the croquetas, the tortilla and the fried classics come out gluten-free and taste like the originals — because they are made by the same hands.
Choose your Madrid
This tour runs in either of two neighbourhoods, and you pick when you book:
- Barrio de las Letras — the literary quarter of Cervantes and Lope de Vega, all golden-age facades and century-old taverns.
- Lavapiés — Madrid’s most diverse district, where street art meets the old “Manolería” and the kitchens are as international as the neighbours.
Not sure? Tell us what you like and we will recommend one.
Food & Drinks (All-Inclusive & Flexible)
Unlike other tours with rigid “set tourist menus”, we order à la carte. Your booking includes 3 drinks and 5–6 high-quality gluten-free tapas per person.
- 100% gluten-free & personalized: every stop is chosen for how its kitchen handles gluten, not just for its menu. We confirm cross-contamination protocols with each kitchen before we bring you in.
- Dietary needs: we can also accommodate dairy-free, nut allergies or vegetarian preferences on top of the gluten-free base.
- Local quality: the same seasonal produce a Madrileño would order.
Duration & Mobility
Approximately 2.5 hours at a relaxed pace. Madrid’s tapas culture happens standing at the bar, but for guests with reduced mobility we can adapt the route with fewer stops and reserved seating — just tell us when you book.
Families & Accessibility
Families welcome (recommended for ages 12+). Central hotel pick-up available if you are within 10–15 minutes of the meeting point.
Meeting Point
Confirmed with you once you have chosen the neighbourhood: Plaza de Santa Ana for the Barrio de las Letras route, Metro Tirso de Molina for Lavapiés. You will receive the exact spot with your booking confirmation.
Important Information
