The Café at La Casa Encendida is a great spot to enjoy fine coffee and a tasty breakfast, whatever the time of day. As well as sourdough bread, filter coffee, delicious espressos and fresh milk brought daily from the Madrid mountains, our outstanding menu includes a variety of oven-fresh homemade cakes with flavours ranging from carrot, raspberry, apple, coconut, banana, lemon and up to twelve specialities, plus brownies, cookies, Argentinian alfajores de maicena (a type of cornstarch biscuit) and lemon pie, all from family recipes.

One of the most unique spaces that can be found between Lavapiés and Arganzuela, a native garden on a rooftop with views. A place of peace in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city during the day and a lively meeting point in the evening.

The library at La Casa Encendida is an open space where we invite you to study, use the computers, listen to music, browse the collections, bring your children and take out books, films and albums, all completely free of charge. It’s a place to enjoy and research contemporary culture, conceived with an open-minded critical approach where we hope to develop the potential of literature and art as social spaces that encourage encounters and experiences.
