Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Barcelona

"The 'little champagne' of the name refers to the house cava, which is a fairly ordinary but dirt-cheap number, served in coupe glasses to a lively clientele that blends inquisitive tourists with locals who’ve been coming here for decades. El Xampanyet is no secret, and drinkers spill out on to the street even on relatively quiet nights. But if you can squeeze in, you'll find a bright, tiled bar with traditional wineskins hanging from the ceiling and a selection of simple tapas along the bar."

"An institution in El Born, El Xampanyet has been around for over 90 years, yet it remains cosy and family-owned. This is the place for 3-euro cava and traditional tapas, and you’ll meet the entire family while at it. Still, it’s not the price that makes this one of the best trendy restaurants Barcelona – it’s the vibe."

"El Xampanyet is a rustic and authentic tapas and cava bar Barcelona owned by the same family since the 1930's. Everything a great tapas bar should be. Small, but very popular and well known with deliciou ...Read More..."

"Brunch & Cake is the perfect location to spend a sunny lazy afternoon. The casual restaurant is open every day of the week from 9am to 9pm so you can get your pancake fix at all hours of the day. So contrary is this hangout that the website even says: “Salad for breakfast?"

"€€ | Area: Eixample|19 Enric Granados| Metro: Universitat (L1/L2) |Website. Have the breakfast of champions served in flower pots or shovels!. With the deliciousness of their Nutella French toast alone you’ll let a serving faux pas slide though, am I right?"

"Restaurants Cafés El Gòtic. Satan's serves one of the best cups of coffee you'll get in Barcelona, and their blends of Right Side Coffee – among the best in the city – are in constant rotation, so you can always try something different. They also serve the makings for a spectacular breakfast: 'Everything pairs well with coffee – I recommend the traditional Japanese breakfast, with rice, omelette, spinach, miso soup and coffee,' says Marcos Bartolomé, the man behind the enterprise."

"Satan’s Coffee Corner was one of the first on Barcelona’s specialty coffee scene and is still a favorite when it comes to trendy coffee spots. The team of international baristas created something unique at Satan’s opening to door to specialty coffee in 2012. Specialty brews, hand-crafted drinks, and a café with a chill but unique vibe make it a place that customers keep coming back to."

"In a city that oozes cool, this window coffee shop fits in perfectly. Locals mingle with tourists waiting patiently for their favourite brew. One thing that is certain, is that as soon as you taste it you’ll be hooked."

"Dirección: Metro Palacio Real, Linea 3, 08028 Barcelona, España. Horario: Abierto hasta 8:00 p. m. Teléfono: +34 932 05 90 01"

"Juice Dudes is the perfect place for a healthy brunch stop, where you’ll find (of course!) juices, specialty coffee, tea, smoothie bowls, salads, and sandwiches. The best thing about the Juice Dudes are definitely their smoothies, and the fact that they’re located right on Plaza Universitat. Apart from being one of the best brunch restaurants in Barcelona, it’s also a great place if you need to take out your laptop and do some work on the go!"

"After a long day under the sun, some delicious and expertly made french fries are sure to perk you up and replenish your energy!. Las Fritas is located just a 5 minute walk from Barceloneta beach, and is a great take-away place, originally modelled on the famous friteries of Brussels, Belgium. It’s the perfect place, if you’re in the mood for a cone of something crispy."

"Needless to say that if you’re after gourmet vegetarian grub, this expanding global chain is not the place for you. However for a cheap lunch, be it a quick falafel or a sturdy helping of salad it can be a life-saver, and keep the legs going for a second round of sightseeing. Find it on the lively Carrer de Ferran in El Gotic.C/Ferran 13www.maozusa.com/restaurants/locations/barcelona"

"This cheap little Middle-Eastern takeaway serves freshly cooked falafel served in toasted pitta breads and crammed with salad, tahini, chilli sauce, olives etc and is the perfect remedy for the hungry vegan after hours."

"Maoz is a great place for a cheap, Middle-Eastern veggie plate. Get a serving of falafel at the counter and serve yourself from the salad bar. It’s in the perfect location right off la Rambla, fresh and cheap!"
