I was a tourist in town and was told this is where the locals go and not so many tourists. It proved to be true. It is located on the second floor of a Super Market and there is a rooftop bar above it. Seating is limited, but you can share tables and eventually find seats. It is not as big as Mercado San Miguel, but it is definitely less expensive and a lighter less chaotic atmosphere. They have all different types of Tapas including Paella (which was incredible), greek bites, sushi, desserts, seafood, etc... The first floor of the super market as you enter also has really good gelato which we really enjoyed. I would definitely recommend coming here. The people were really nice and welcoming.

The Mercado San Anton is made up of a supermarket, fresh market, food stalls and a restaurant/rooftop bar. I shopped here every day for 7 months while I was living in the area. The supermarket (it is a Supercor) is great with meat and fish counters with fresh produce and everything else needed for a weekly shop. Above the supermarket there is a fresh market with cheese stalls, meat stands, fresh bread etc - perhaps too expensive for daily goods but great quality and fun to go around. Next there is a floor dedicated to different food stands; lots of spanish wine and tapas stands but also chinese stalls, italian, french etc - it's great fun to go around and taste different plates at different stalls. Lastly at the top there is a rooftop bar with a few restaurants and bars. It is open from the morning until late at night and there are views over Chueca (the neighbourhood). You can sit inside or outside to have lunch, supper, drinks, snacks etc. Food-wise there are lots of options to share, such as tacos, prawn tempura, croquetas and then more substantial courses for mains. There are lots of cocktails on offer, those which I tried were great, and many Spanish wines. Highly recommend, not as busy/crowded or expensive as some of the other rooftop bars in Madrid but just as fun.

Even if we have been there to as for some food at 23:00 they accepted us and looked after us very well even if we were the only two person in the entire restaurant and they were closing. Food is delicious, staff very attentive and professional. We have been there twice in a week. I never go back somewhere to eat when I’m on holiday because I think I should always try something new but it worth it! BEDT SANGRIA EVER!
