Madrid — Malasana / Universidad
HanSo Cafe

Started as a bakery before growing into a full third-wave coffee bar, HanSo keeps a bright, minimalist room that leans on natural light rather than dramatic design choices. It doesn't roast its own coffee, instead rotating beans from respected guest roasters — Nomad, Gardelli, Bonanza, and April have all featured — which keeps the board changing more often than a single-roast cafe's would. Malasana's dense grid of independent shops and bars provides a steady stream of neighborhood foot traffic.
Two independent Madrid dog-friendly directories list HanSo as welcoming pets indoors, with water reportedly provided as a matter of course — one of the better-sourced dog confirmations in this batch of research. Hours run later into the evening than a typical espresso bar, closer to all-day cafe territory, which fits Malasana's pace better than a strict morning-only schedule would.
