This central square has a lovely tree-lined boulevard where bars set up their sidewalk tables in summer. It has become one of the liveliest tapas areas in Madrid, full of locals and office workers at all times of day. The most popular bar is called Santa Bárbara and it serves great beer and prawns. In the square, you'll also see the attractive classical French style Villagonzalo Palace and the unusual Casa de los Lagartos (House of Lizards), named after the stone carved lizards that decorate its upper storey.
