Other Budget Options

$$ Café de Oriente is recommended mostly for its location, facing the Royal Palace, next to the National Theater and overlooking Plaza de Oriente. It’s a venerable and elegant opera-type café with fine tables on the square. Stick to the good and reasonable lunch special—three courses for €15—as the restaurant and terrace menus are pricey (Plaza de Oriente 2, tel. 915-413-974, www.cafedeoriente.es, more interesting menu after 20:00).

Sandwich Joints: For an easy, light, and cheap meal, look for the Spanish answers to Subway: $ Rodilla and $ Pans & Company (open daily 9:00-23:00). You’ll see them on Puerta del Sol and nearly every square, offering all the ambience of a McDonald’s and a good selection of fresh sandwiches and prepackaged salads.

Picnic: The department store El Corte Inglés has well-stocked meat-and-cheese counters in Building 2’s immense subterranean supermarket (Mon-Sat 10:00-22:00, Sun 11:00-21:00, a block off Puerta del Sol at Calle Preciados 3).
