Restaurants and bars in Barcelona
Brush off the cobwebs over coffee and pastries in a snug Barcelona bar. Save your euros and lunch at family-run restaurants offering well priced set menus. Blow the budget in Eixample's top-end restaurants, then go out and stay out Barcelona-style in late-night bars in fashionable El Born.
Barcelona restaurant districts
Barcelona's Catalan restaurants and tapas bars serving tasty snacks fill Barri Gòtic's nooks and crannies. You'll find Barcelona's trendiest restaurants in nearby La Ribera and El Born, and seafood at beachy La Barceloneta's outdoor seafood restaurants. Barcelona's winding streets take you to fine-dining heaven in L'Eixample. And Gràcia's narrow streets add a multicultural flavour to Barcelona's restaurant scene with budget Asian and Middle Eastern options.
Barcelona restaurant tips
You'll need to change your restaurant body clock in Barcelona. Restaurant lunches linger from 2pm till 4pm and a leisurely dinner can last from 9.30pm all the way to midnight. Pop into family-run Barcelona restaurants serving a menú del dia, a great-value set lunch option. Finding late-night food is easy in Barcelona, with tapas bars and takeaway falafel and kebab stands open till late in the Ciutat Vella. Barcelona locals love dining out so reserve your table if you can.
Barcelona bars
Start the day with the locals over a café con leche (milky coffee) at a typical Barcelona bar in Barri Gòtic. Get friendly with a glass of Catalan cava at one of La Ribera's xampanyerías (champagne bars). Try out the local wines as you wend your way through Gràcia's intimate neighbourhood bars. Fashionable Barcelona barflies flit to La Ribera and El Born or, for a more left-field Barcelona bar experience, dive into El Raval's alternative scene.
