A traditional taste
Catalonia is where eating is an art; we must remember that it is home to many Michelin-starred restaurants. Barcelona is just a little behind.
Eat like a local in Barcelona
Traditional Catalan food is, without a doubt, fantastic, homey and bread-dipping, or, as they say here, per sucar-hi pa. Fricandó, samfaina or bacalao a la llauna will fill your stomach with happiness and lifelong flavours, so you can't walk around Barcelona without delighting yourself with these wonderful culinary recipes for everyone. By the way, if you are vegetarian or vegan, the escalivada will be your favourite choice, we assure you.
Restaurants in Barcelona with traditional Catalan food
In Barcelona, you can find many restaurants, but it is a place with a particular quirk; since it has been a city heavily exploited by tourism, finding the right restaurant can be a bit of an odyssey, as many offer a very cheap product and elaborations. In other words, to eat well, you have to know where to go; this is the most recommended thing. This is our best selection of Barcelona's best traditional menus:
– La Plata: A place with a unique tradition, a concise menu consisting of tomato salad, cold and salted meats and a cañas that are best shared in company. In La Plata, it is difficult to find a place, so you have to flow with what is happening and enjoy the purest Mediterranean lifestyle—one of the best Spanish food restaurants in Barcelona.
– La Cova Fumada: Oh, La Cova Fumada, what a special place. It opens at 9 a.m. every day except Sunday when it closes, and, at the latest, it locks up at 15:00. You have to go early and with a good philosophy because there will be a queue, although we promise it will be worth it. You'll fall in love with their products, characteristic of the Barceloneta neighbourhood.
– El Vaso de Oro: Also in La Barceloneta, but in a different style, El Vaso de Oro is a place where you can drink beer and, above all, marvel at the rhythm of its waitpersons, who dance around the bar serving everyone who enters with a smile on their faces. Fantastic tapas will liven up the time you spend admiring the show.
– El Racó de l’Agüir: This corner of Sant Antoni is an increasingly well-known secret. Its rice dishes will leave you wanting to repeat, its starters, traditional but with a modern touch, will not take a smile off your face.
– Bar Omar: We have a place that perfectly combines the new Catalan cuisine and tradition. Bar Omar is a spot to eat and live a culinary experience, and only a few places mix the two realities—a 10.
And above all... Bon profit!
