Tippling: The extensive bar menu features 28 different tequilas—a single glass of Herradura Selecci?n Suprema will set you back $44—and 11 varieties of mescal, the lesser-known Mexican firewater distilled from the maguey plant. Corona Extra is thankfully absent from the listed beers.
Food: Once a high-end Italian restaurant, Cibeles offers 11 kinds of pizza and a variety of appetizers ranging from oysters Rockefeller to spinach croquettes served with bacalao. You can't go wrong with the pizza ramblas topped with Spanish chorizo sausage, mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce ($9), or the Caesar's salad served with cogollo lettuce leaves ($6).
Sweets: The tiramisu sprinkled with chocolate-covered toasted coffee beans pays delectable tribute to the joint's culinary lineage ($6).
