La Taqueria de Birra,
Mexican in the Comendadoras Square
To do so, we had to bring from the Aztec country all the necessary equipment such as tortilla pans or comales, because in Spain this material did not exist and was practically unknown.
And that is how in 1989 we began our journey with the first taqueria in Madrid in the Plaza de las Comendadoras, in front of the old convent that gives its name to this traditional square.
La Taqueria de Birra in Plaza de las Comendadoras offers a unique gastronomic and cultural experience that will transport you to Mexico itself.
But, why visit La Taqueria de Birra in Plaza de las Comendadoras?
To make this experience as satisfying as possible, we also offer a wide variety of the most famous Mexican cocktails.
In addition, we also organize different parties and celebrations and we constantly have promotions so you can taste our tacos whenever you want.
In case you want to taste our traditional dishes and recipes without leaving home, we also offer home delivery so you will never be left without tasting anything.
History In 1989, we opened the first Taqueria in Madrid in the Plaza de las Comendadoras, opposite the old convent that gives its name to this traditional square. The idea was born as a result of a trip to Mexico from where we brought all the necessary instruments such as molcajete, comales, metates, tortilleras… and everything for making tacos (because there was nothing at all in Spain). Years later, in 1993 we opened the second taquería in the city, La Taquería de Birra Don Pedro, in the heart of the neighborhood of La Latina, a sequel to the first Taquería opened in the capital of Spain in the Plaza de las Comendadoras. Tons of objects and gadgets from the popular Mexico traveled from the Aztec country to define a space of authenticity committed to Mexican cuisine and the vitality of its environment.
Authentic Mexican atmosphere A typical and original decoration with objects and photographs of Mexican daily life, ambient music that comes directly from Mexico and the most outstanding specialties of this country, are the best letter of introduction of the restaurant La Taquería de Birra, the oldest taquería in Madrid and one of the oldest Mexican restaurants in the city. Its characteristic atmosphere and its fast and efficient service make La Taquería de Birra the ideal spot for an afternoon with friends or an evening in good company.
Kitchen Culinary art is synonymous with culture. Through the kitchen the customs of a town, its natural riches and its tastes are known. Among a wide variety of Mexican specialties, tacos and guacamole are the dishes that stand out the most. Nor can we forget the tequila and mezcal-based cocktails in the purest Mexican style, such as our famous margaritas. We organize different parties throughout the month and we constantly have promotions that will allow you to enjoy the best food and drink with the essence of Mexico in a fun environment.
