Faraday is a record shop and café on Calle de San Lucas, near Chueca and Salesas in central Madrid. Vinyl shelves, vintage furniture and small objects share the room with the coffee counter. Food is limited.
Coffee
Faraday serves Toma-roasted coffee as espresso, filter and cold coffee. Its retail selection focuses on records and objects.
Food
The changing food selection includes cakes and other bakes. There is no cooked brunch menu.
Service & Room
Faraday's no-laptop policy leaves the tables for conversation, reading and listening. It opens later than many breakfast cafes, so check the day's hours before making it your first stop. Browse the records while waiting, and expect a compact food selection rather than a full meal.
Why Filter Notes shortlisted Faraday
Choose Faraday for Toma coffee, a slice of cake and time among the records on San Lucas. Browse the vinyl shelves while you are there. If you want an early breakfast, a laptop session or a tasting flight, another Madrid stop will suit better.
