Eating with a large group in such a big city can be complete chaos if it is not planned in advance. That is why you need to take certain factors carefully into account: proximity to the monuments you plan to visit, the spaces available for groups, whether reservations can be made or not, and, of course, the price.<\/p>\n<p>If you are organising your end-of-year trip to the capital, here are the best ideas for sampling the local gastronomy, taking a break in one of the city&#8217;s parks for a picnic, or visiting the finest tapas bars in Madrid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11844\" src=\"https:\/\/natuaventura.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/croquetas-madrid-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11843\" src=\"https:\/\/natuaventura.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/comer-madrid-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Eating outdoors<\/h2>\n<p>When you organise an excursion on your end-of-year trip, the same question always comes up: where do we eat with a school group in Madrid? The cheapest option \u2014 and the best one in the capital \u2014 is to plan strategic stops in the city&#8217;s many parks for a picnic. Madrid has a large number of open-air spaces where you can stroll, play in the gardens and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of nature in the middle of the city. Here are the best choices:<\/p>\n<h3>City centre<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jard\u00edn del Buen Retiro<\/strong>: one of the most iconic parks in Madrid, right next to Atocha station. El Retiro is a historic garden and public park with numerous fountains, wide meadows and a large boating lake. Moreover, being situated in the city centre, it is perfect for a quick stop during your sightseeing tour.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jardines de las Vistillas<\/strong>: a natural balcony at the top of the city, in the La Latina neighbourhood. Another perfect option if you are visiting the surrounding area.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Madrid R\u00edo<\/strong>: a riverside park along the banks of the Manzanares, consisting of a pedestrian and leisure zone. Here, pupils can play on the fountains, giant slides, original swings and skate park. The Matadero, one of the most comprehensive cultural centres in the city, is also located here.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parque del Oeste:<\/strong> in the Moncloa district, this green space with wide meadows is right next to the Temple of Debod.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>On the outskirts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Parque Europa<\/strong>: situated in Torrej\u00f3n de Ardoz, it is one of the most famous municipal parks in the Community of Madrid, featuring replicas of Europe&#8217;s most iconic monuments. If you decide to include this visit in your itinerary, it will be the surprise your pupils never expected \u2014 it is not the best-known park in the city, but it is certainly the most original.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Casa de Campo<\/strong>: Casa de Campo is Madrid&#8217;s largest park \u2014 a chance to experience nature right in the middle of the city. You can have lunch here when visiting the Zoo or the Parque de Atracciones, take a walk in the peace and quiet of the park, and take a break from the urban hustle and bustle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parque Juan Carlos I:<\/strong> located in the north-east of Madrid, this enormous park features canals, numerous fountains, wide meadows and a wealth of possibilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Restaurants for school groups in Madrid<\/h2>\n<p>Of course, it is always necessary to plan at least one sit-down meal at a restaurant (even if it is not the finest quality) so that the students leave with a good impression. Madrid has a wide range of group set menus on offer. Here are some of the restaurants we have found for you and your group:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Topolino<\/li>\n<li>Vips<\/li>\n<li>La Zaguina<\/li>\n<li>Casa Patas<\/li>\n<li>La Chulapa de Alcal\u00e1<\/li>\n<li>Txapela<\/li>\n<li>Botania<\/li>\n<li>Taberna Rayuela<\/li>\n<li>Restaurante la Gaditana<\/li>\n<li>La Puebla<\/li>\n<li>Lamucca de Prado<\/li>\n<li>Museo del Jam\u00f3n<\/li>\n<li>La cocina de San Ant\u00f3n<\/li>\n<li>La cava de Casa Mar\u00eda<\/li>\n<li>Restaurante Casa Salvador<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Tapas around Madrid<\/h2>\n<p>Although it is not the most recommended option for groups, it is always important to experience the local food and atmosphere. For this, there is nothing better than heading to the city&#8217;s most iconic neighbourhoods to try their hundreds of tapas bars. Nibbles and bustle \u2014 so that pupils can experience the Madrid atmosphere first-hand. If you are planning to leave some free time or organise an evening stroll, this is a great way to round off the end-of-year trip.
