One of several bars around Plaza del Tossal, the Infanta has a cosy sunken interior with exposed brick and cinema memorabilia. The terrace is also one of the barrio's most popular. It's a fine spot for a drink – decent caipirinhas – though service is scatty. There's food available, but it's nothing special.
