A Space Rooted in Spanish Tradition

Where it all began — a timeless tribute to Spanish heritage.

Opened in 2008, Socarrat Chelsea was our very first location — the birthplace of a dream to bring not only the most authentic flavors from Spain to New York, but also to share the richness of our culture.

This space draws inspiration from Spanish heritage in many subtle but meaningful ways. You’ll find classical references, like portraits of Velázquez paintings and walls lined with real Spanish lottery tickets — a small but powerful nod to a beloved national tradition.

Chelsea represents our roots and everything we set out to do: create a place where people come together around the most authentic flavors.
