It is Spain’s most famous chocolate shop,
set in a building that dates back to 1890,
…which was originally built as a restaurant and inn.
The interior is decorated with mirrors,
classic green wood panels,
…with green velvet seats and
old fashioned marble tables.
The wall displays photographs-
,,,of prominent personalities,
…that one way or another dined,
…and visited,
…this ancient chocolateria.
Chocolateria de San
Ginez became very popular in 1894, when
they began serving the city’s most popular breakfast combinations:
…chocolate and churros.
The Spanish style thick, dark and very
strong chocolate is served steaming hot ,
…and the deep fried churros – a light, crispy,
linear pastry, similar to an elongated donut,
... are served hot and freshly
cooked, ready for dunking.

For those who would like something different
the cafe also sells coffee, tea and various pastries,
but really, people from all over the world flock to this
chocolateria for their iconic chocolate and churros.
Chocolateria de San Ginez is open
