It was ok but not amazing (lack of flavour).
Didn't try the other cakes though but they look 😋

Finally a vegan place in this area! - Edit
Sometimes you don’t want to go all the way to Lavapiés or Sol for something vegan and a nice coffee. I had an avocado toast and an iced latte, and on a weekday morning in late July, it wasn’t crowded at all. The cheesecake I took home was also quite delicious, especially the sauce. All in all, would go back, but probably wouldn’t venture in on a Sunday.

Wonderful - Edit
I thought we’d try this after reading the reviews. It’s quite a small cafe but it’s in a nice part of town where there’s a little Sunday street market. We had breakfast there and it was fabulous. We had the French toast and the tofu on toast. Having read that back that description just doesn’t do them justice. They were really well presented came out quick and they were both delicious. An explosion of flavours and so filling. As we were paying and getting ready to leave she came out with a tray of fresh cinnamon buns. Oh. My. God. The only problem we have with it is it is closed on Mondays so we can’t go there for breakfast tomorrow. We may have to stay an extra night or so to get some more of those great looking cakes.

Best cake I ever had - Edit
Everything in this small bar/coffee shop looks great. We had some cake and it was very very good. I never had a plant based cake that tastes what I was used (and liked) before eating plant bases.
Read moreHighly recommended!
Pros: the cake!

El mejor sitio de Madrid para veganos :) - Edit
La verdad es que atravesaría de nuevo todo Madrid (e incluso toda España) para volver a ese lugar. La primera vez que fui, lo que me atrayó fue el olor a canela que salía de la tienda, resulta que tenían cinnamon rolls recién horneados. Los mejores que haya probado en mi vida y encima veganos. No pude resistirme a pedir más cosas y probé su cheesecake de lotus, una pasada. Lo recomiendo al 100% y he vuelto con mi mamá, le ha encantado. Incluyendo la atención espectacular😄
Read morePS: además ahora hacen cestas con TooGoodToGo!!! Por menos de 5€ tuve 1 croissant, 2 trozos de carrot cake, 2 mini pizza rolls y 1 empanada!

Not very friendly - Edit
Went there to have a snack with a friend. When I arrived they told me they would close at 18:30 instead of 19:30, it was 17:45 so I stayed.
Read moreMy friend arrived at 18:00 and almost right away they started closing the cafe and piling tables, chairs, etc. By 18:15 we left because we were uncomfortable and they clearly wanted us out asap.
I only had one item (lotus cheesecake) and it was good! But nobody told us why they were closing early and they were piling tables right next to us 20 minutes before the ad hoc closing time.
I will be back to check more things when I'm back in Madrid but, as firsts impressions go, this was not the best.

Me pedí una tostada de salmón. La verdad es que me impresionó la textura y el sabor del salmón. Estaba muy bien conseguido. Buenísimo! Y el trato de la camarera excelente!

EL MEJOR CAFÉ DE MADRID - Edit
La Loca de Enfrente lleva abierta pocos meses y ha logrado hacerse hueco entre el corazón de todos los veganos de Madrid.
Read moreSe trata de una cafetería pequeñita y con mucho encanto situada muy cerca de El Rastro d ñe Madrid, por lo que recomiendo acudir a visitarla en días no festivos.
Tiene de todo: desayunos ricos, Brunch, unas tostadas de 100, la repostería es impresionante (especialmente las tartas, que no son tipo bizcocho con algo más, sino que son pura cremosidad) y se volaron para conseguir tener la mejor cafetera del mercado y el café más rico, apoyadas por baristas.
Siempre que voy pruebo algo nuevo y hasta ahora todo me ha gustado. Por favor, vayan!
Pros: Dulce, Café , Ambiente

Happy Breakfast, Happy Day - Edit
Nothing makes me happier than a good and tasty breakfast, and finding a delicious one right next to the Sunday fair and all the cheap books, is just about as perfect as a morning can get.

I can't wait to go back!

Rich Desserts - Edit
La Loco de Enfrente offers rich, mature, healthy desserts in the vibrant La Latina neighborhood.
Read moreLa Loco de Enfrente lives in the heart of the beautiful La Latina neighborhood. Outside the restaurant, multiple sweet and savory options greet you at the outdoor counter with a glass display below filled with more goodies, allowing your eyes to choose before your brain gets a hold of a menu.
The food is natural with low sweetness, giving the variety of tastes the chance to pop through. The Alfajores, two crunchy cookies covered in chocolate, crunch before the taste comes through. The rich chocolate shell is smooth with a slight sweetness. The Orange Brownie, covered with candied orange, is cry but rich, leaning on the orange to sweeten the treat. The pomegranate, passion fruit cheesecake has an interesting, spongy egg texture with a grittiness from the blended cashews. The variety of textures pile up with the sweet jam topping with crunchy pomegranate seeds
La Loco is for those with a richer palate, for those searching for a variety of mature desserts, uninterested in sweetness alone, and interested in rich flavors. I would recommend La Loco to those looking for dessert without any hints of guilt.
Pros: Large selection, Rich Desserts

Very small café, that gets quite busy on Sundays during the flea market in el Rastro. But we were lucky enough to get a table. Cake and Croissant, as well as coffee were excellent, and service was quick and friendly.

Best in Madrid - Edit
This place is just stunning. All the baked goods are of extreme quality, the prices are modreate and the staff is very nice. The local is tiny so you have to be lucky to get a seat, but it definitively requires a visit!

So good! - Edit
Stopped by a few weeks ago for an afternoon tea and a cake and later for an super late lunch/early dinner. Food is really really tasty and inexpensive. Staff are very nice and helpful. Only drawback is there are just a few tall tables with stools, which isn't the most comfortable way to have a meal IMO

El sitio perfecto para brunch y tartas veganas! - Edit
Increíble descubrimiento este sitio, hacía mucha falta! Pedí una tosta de salmón vegano que estaba riquísima (y a parte muy buen tamaño y no escatiman en ingredientes!), como la devoré se me olvidó sacar una foto, y una cheesecake muy rica también. El café estaba muy bueno también, muy recomendable este sitio!

Nice new spot in lavapiés - Edit
Large selection of cakes. I had the turkey and cheese sandwich which at €4.50 was great value for money. Unfortunately the seating options are limited which is why i haven't given 5 stars.

Desayuno riquísimo - Edit
Es un local pequeñito y acogedor llevado por dos chicas muy agradables que hacen todo artesanal. La carta puede parecer pequeña, pero tienen una gran variedad de tartas y varios bizcochos, todos con una pinta impresionante (recomiendo visitar su cuenta de Instagram para babear un poco).
Read moreFui a desayunar con un amigo y quedamos los dos encantades. El café orgánico es bastante amargo, pero con un sabor y un cuerpo muy bueno, a mí me gustó mucho. Tomamos un brownie, que viene con una cucharadita de helado de nata y de crema como de café, que estaba delicioso, en el punto húmedo perfecto sin llegar a deshacerse ni resultar empalagoso. También cogimos una tosta para compartir con peras caramelizadas, queso fresco, nueces y brotes, estaba riquísimo y es una combinación brutal.
La verdad es que estaba todo riquísimo, es un gran descubrimiento y merece mucho la pena ir de brunch para probar lo que ofrecen. Estamos deseando volver!
Pros: Comida, Ambiente, Sabor
Cons: Precio un poco elevado, Estaría bien alguna tosta más , Las carta no está actualizada
