Cake and coffee · Conde Duque, Madrid
Cake and coffee until 17:30.
The kitchen closes at 17:00, but the bar carries on for another half hour: at 17:29 you can still order cake with a coffee. The cheesecakes, the carrot cake, the red velvet, the Snickers and the cookies come out of our own workshop, and all the milk in the coffee is plant-based, whichever you prefer and at no extra cost.
The cakes
Six sweet things on the menu, all from the workshop and all 100% plant-based. Both cheesecakes are made without gluten, though they share a kitchen with the rest and we cannot guarantee there are no traces.

The quiet hour
Mid-afternoon there is no queue.
The wait, when there is one, is Saturday and Sunday morning. From 15:30 or 16:00 you normally walk straight in, or wait a lot less, and Wednesday to Friday even more so.

Questions
- How late can I have cake and coffee?
- Until 17:30. Cakes, cheesecakes, cookies, coffee, juices, lemonades and the rest of the drinks run half an hour longer than the kitchen, so at 17:29 you are still in time for cake and a coffee. The room closes at 18:00.
- Can I come just for a coffee and a slice of cake?
- Of course, and with no minimum spend. It is also the quietest stretch of the day: from 15:30 there is almost never a wait.
- Are the cakes vegan?
- All of them. The entire menu is 100% plant-based, so there is no animal egg or dairy in any cake, cheesecake or cookie. They are made in our own workshop.
- How much does it cost?
- Cakes are €5.95 to €7, cheesecakes €6.90, the cookie €3, coffee €2.20 to €4.90, and juices and smoothies €5 to €6.50. Cake and a coffee comes to between €8 and €12.
- Is there gluten-free cake?
- The Caín and Abel cheesecakes are made without gluten. They come out of the same kitchen as everything else, so we cannot guarantee there are no traces: if you are coeliac, tell us when you order and we will go through it with you.
- What milk goes in the coffee?
- All the milk is plant-based: soy, oat or almond, whichever you prefer and at no extra cost. Ice is €0.20 more.
- Can I take a whole cake away?
- Yes, whole cakes are available to order. Email info@frutasprohibidas.com or tell us in the room in advance and we will sort it out.
