You can't miss the doorman here, elaborately dressed to imitate 19th-century local outlaw, Luis Candelas. The tavern is under one of the archway entrances to Plaza Mayor. The interior is a faithful representation of an old country inn and it is always full of tourists who cannot resist the temptation of entering a real time capsule. The bar serves excellent Pinchos (canapés) and the restaurant serves up typically hearty Castilian fare. It specializes in roasts from a wood-fired oven, such as Suckling Pig or Tender Lamb. The Callos (tripe) will fill you up sufficiently. There's a good selection of fine Spanish wines to choose from as well.
