Gay bars madrid sunday
This page tells you about some of the Madrid gay bars that you can find throughout the madrid. The gay scene is concentrated in the barrio district of Chueca, which is near to the centre. Chueca is not exclusively gay and you'll also see straight people enjoying the ambiance. We've written a short description of some of the gay bars, and provided directions and the nearest metro.
The most popular area for the gay community to go out socialising is the barrio of Chueca. There are two main streets that contain bars, restaurants, shops and accommodation. These streets are called Fuencarral and Calle Hortaleza. They both begin on Gran Via, one of Madrid's most central roads. Shops and bars that classify themselves as 'gay' usually hand a multi-coloured flag outside.
Chueca as a whole is colourful and jammed sunday of interesting little bars. Metro: Chueca Green Line, L5. Metro: Lavapies Yellow Line, L3. Madrid is a open minded city and the gay community are by no means confined to these two areas. I have spent gay a Sunday afternoon in a chill bar in Chueca called La Lupe, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
The bars throughout Chueca don't tend to open until night time, from around onwards, and they don't get busy until midnight. The bar is usually fun and lively. There are quite a few more chilled out bars in Chueca that get busy on Sunday afternoons, and many bars lay on entertainment.
This bar is easily recognisable by the image of the bear leaning against the tree. This is the official emblem of Madrid.
