It was founded in 1855 by a Madrid-based baker who worked for the Royal Family, Dámaso de la Maza, better known by the nickname of El Riojano, this century-old cake shop that practically maintains its original decor intact, enables you to savour some of Madrid’s best sweets in its classic but cosy tearoom at the rear of the shop.
Its bakery follows Madrid’s traditional calendar: King’s Cake, Saint Anthony rolls, smart and dumb bagels, Saint Isidro candy, saint’s fritters and bones, Almudena crown, etc.
In 1892, it was refurbished to its current appearance: mahogany from Cuba, Carrara marble and bronze.
