Poncelet Cheese Bar

7 reviews of Poncelet Cheese Bar

A temple to cheese in Madrid

Excellent

If you’re a cheese-lover who’s looking for an original restaurant with a great atmosphere, this is your place!
I wasn’t expecting anything special from this place but, to my surprise, I left with the exact opposite impression. The lighting, the decoration, and the general vibe of the place make it a really pleasant experience.
The menu is quite long but well-organized (I normally can’t stand those long menus that make it impossible to decide) where you’ll find all manner of dishes related to cheese. For those not so wild about cheese, they’ve marked those dishes that are considered “cheese optional.”
The blue cheese croquetas deserve a special mention. They’re killer! Best croquetas I’ve had in my life. The raclette was another five-star dish. We weren’t quite full so we also ordered the beef cheek (they didn’t charge us, a nice detail). Next time we’ll try some of the cheese plates, which you can order pre-selected or customize from among dozens of cheeses. The second option is for the pros.

For dessert, we had two perfect gin and tonics. G’Vine and Tanqueray Ten, both very good. You can supposedly have a good meal for 30€ although this wasn’t our case. Finally, it’s important to reserve a table towards the back of the restaurant where the decoration gets really neat (the vertical garden is especially cool). Oh, and the waiters are hilarious, something I hope they don’t change. Really friendly without crossing the line to annoying.
Very, very, very recomendable.

A cheese paradise

Excellent

Cheese-lovers need to make a mandatory pilgrimage to this place. It opened in 2011 and boasts a huge variety of cheese, around 300 or so. They also have a pretty tempting menu featuring mainly cheese dishes, but there are a few you can opt to try without cheese. Recommended for anyone that truly adores cheese.
