Café Bar Madness specializes in casual dining, offering a delightful array of menu options that cater to all tastes. The café is particularly known for its scrumptious Tejas, like the Tejas De Nuggets featuring crispy chicken bites, and the irresistible Tejas De Salchipapas that combines savory sausages with seasoned fries – perfect for sharing! Each bite is crafted to beckon your taste buds, allowing you to savor flavors that are both comforting and novel.

The spacious, sunlit terrace is perfect for a relaxed afternoon, and you won't find yourself worried about cars passing by, allowing children to play safely while you unwind with a refreshing drink or a plateful of tasty snacks. Isma Gartzia calls it “one of the best terraces in Zorrotza,” highlighting its perfect location in a pedestrian area.
While the café radiates a cozy charm, there are a few service nuances to note.
