Mesón opened in 1964 in a farmhouse nearly 300 years old with caves, winepress and mill you can tour, and wood-fired roasts.

A farmhouse nearly three hundred years old
Mesón Cuevas del Vino opened in 1964 in a farmhouse nearly three hundred years old where wine and oil were made, at Calle Benito Hortelano 13, five minutes' walk from Chinchón's Plaza Mayor. The building is listed as of tourist interest and protected by the Historic Heritage of the Community of Madrid. It covers 3,500 m² and has more than 2,000 metres of route like a museum: the old oil mill, with its black poplar beam; the cellar with its clay tinajas; winepress, grain loft and stable; and beneath, caves that the house counts among the deepest and most extensive in the south of Madrid. Through its dining rooms have passed, according to the mesón, Orson Welles, Manolo Escobar, Adrien Brody and Tom Holland.
Wood-fired oven cooking
Traditional Spanish cooking, no frills. The usual: the mesón's chorizo grilled over embers, asadillo of peppers with tuna, migas, morteruelo, black pudding and "faroles", fried spring garlic. The wood-fired oven, which the house presents as the biggest in Spain, roasts suckling lamb and suckling pig. There is a tasting menu and a Madrid cocido menu. Desserts are homemade: fried milk, almond and meringue cake, and puff pastry baked in the same oven. The house wine is served in goatskin wineskins. The 2026 menu is on their website as a PDF; check prices there or when booking.
Closed on Tuesdays, except at Christmas and Holy Week
Lunch every day except non-holiday Tuesdays, from 12:00 to 16:30 on weekdays and until 17:00 on Saturday and Sunday; on Tuesdays at Christmas and Holy Week it does open. Dinner on Friday and Saturday, and in summer on Friday until midnight. Book online on their website or on 91 894 02 06; the office answers on 91 894 09 40 and at cuevasdelvino@cuevasdelvino.com. It also organises group meals and events in its dining rooms and taverns.
Before or after the square
The tour of the caves is done before or after eating: ask when you arrive. It is the lunch of the Sunday of square, winery and roast, between the Plaza Mayor and the visit to the Bodega del Nero. If you want to stay the night, the Parador de Chinchón is a few minutes' walk away.

Qué pedir: the mesón's grilled chorizo, pepper asadillo and wood-fired suckling lamb; or the cocido menu
