Eclectic Cocktail Bar & Restaurant

Salmon Guru

Salmon Guru is one of Spain’s most renowned cocktail destinations. Located in Madrid, the bar is celebrated for its eccentric atmosphere, inventive cocktails, and refreshingly unpretentious approach to high-end mixology.

Salmon Guru opened in Madrid in 2016 under the vision of Diego Cabrera, one of Spain’s most influential bartenders. His goal was to break away from the sometimes elitist conventions of the cocktail world by creating a venue where enjoyment, creativity, and accessibility take center stage. The name Salmon Guru reflects this philosophy of going against the current: the salmon symbolizes independence and a refusal to follow convention, while “Guru” represents mastery of the craft.

SIEMPRE A CONTRACORRIENTE

For the eighth consecutive year, Salmon Guru has earned a place on the highly coveted The World’s 50 Best Bars 2025 list.
