Restaurante Botin
The world's oldest restaurant boasts a timeless allure


Preserving the atmosphere and charm of its original tavern appearance, Restaurante Botin is the world’s oldest restaurant, founded in 1725. Staying true to its original principles, Botin emphasises outstanding hospitality, good service and true culinary tradition. The restaurant has also remained true to its ancient recipes, specialising in Castilian cuisine and, most famously, its suckling pig and roast lamb dishes that are slow-roasted in the original wood fire oven. Exuding an ageless charm and honesty of flavour, Botin remains the most essential classic establishment in Madrid.
