Lunch/dinner at 100 montaditos

At Plaza de la Reina, you can find 100 montaditos. This is a restaurant, where you can choose from 100 different kinds of small sandwiches. Besides sandwiches they serve fries and salads. On the tables you will find pens and papers and you have to fill in on a paper which sandwiches you would like to have. Also for children there are enough options they might like, such as: a sandwich with tortilla de patatas, a sandwich with ham, a sandwich with cheese and of course fries.

Tips

– Spanish people are used to having dinner quite late. If your children aren’t used dine late in the evening, you might want to choose to have dinner in the city centre. Because here several restaurants/tapasbars are open all day long or open early for dinner.
